If you are missing out if you don’t have some kind of Netflix plan by now. The watch instantly service is on both the Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3, with rumors of it coming to Wii, not to mention any computer and a wealth of streaming boxes and Blu-ray players. As if you need another reason it was announced today via Indiewire that Netflix and IFC have partnered together to deliver 53 films and more to come.

Lisa Schwartz, executive vice president for IFC Entertainments says:

Netflix has always championed independent cinema and has creatively built audiences for films in this genre, and we’re excited to give their customers instant access to this wide-ranging collection of independent film. Our top priority is to make independent film available to a wider audience and this partnership further underscores that commitment.

Robert Kyncl, vice president of content acquisition for Netflix:

Partnering with IFC Films gives us the opportunity to expand the number of quality films that our subscribers can watch instantly. This deal reinforces our commitment to bringing diversity to the library and properties like this collection of titles bring us closer to that goal.

Indiewire highlights a list of the films available below:

John Sayles’ “The Brother From Another Planet” and “Return of the Secaucus Seven,” Christopher Nolan’s debut “Following,” Joe Swanberg’s “Nights and Weekends,” James Toback’s “When Will I Be Loved,” and Rebecca Miller’s first film “Angela.”

The library will also feature documentaries by filmmaker Errol Morris, including “The Thin Blue Line” and “Gates of Heaven”.  Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky’s award-winning “Brother’s Keeper,” and Jim Stern and Adam Del Deo’s political documentary “So Goes The Nation” are also featured.

In addition, some recent foreign language titles included in the deal: Susanne Bier’s “Brothers,” Patrice Chereau’s “Gabrielle,” Hirokazu Kore-Eda’s Cannes prize winner “Nobody Knows,” Lukas Moodysson’s “Together,” Christophe Honore’s “Dans Paris,” Catherine Breillat “Sex is Comedy, Alfonso Cuaron “Solo con tu Paraja,” Kristian Levring’s “The Intended,” and Hou Hsiao Hsien’s “Three Times.”
