What are good films exploring the horrors of captivity?

I’m looking for some recommendations of films that show people being imprisoned or stranded or held by a captor, and how they deal with the psychological side of it.

A performance I enjoyed was by Toby McGuire in Brothers. Something as raw and powerful as that, showing emotion beyond just fear, would be great. Other examples are: The Room, Captain Philips, one episode in The Ozark where Marty is imprisoned. Other recommendations appreciated!

Edit: some AMAZING recommendations, thank you! My watchlist is bulging now, gonna be going through them this weekend.
