For me its The Usual Suspects, then Se7en, then American Beauty, Then Taxi Driver and then Fargo.

Not sure "the greatest" can be applied to any original screenplay, but my highly rated favourites would include :

1. Magnolia - Paul Thomas Anderson
2. A Very Long Engagement - Jean-Pierre Jeunet
3. Fargo - The Coen Brothers
4. Incendies - Denis Villeneuve
5. The Past - Asghar Farhadi
6. In A Better World - Anders Thomas Jensen
7. The Sea Inside - Alejandro Amenábar
8. Apocalypse Now - John Milius & Francis Ford Copolla
9. A Woman Under the Influence - John Cassavetes
10. Short Cuts - Robert Altman

"Harry and Tonto" - the director (Paul Mazursky) co-wrote this. Every human theme is explored, but in a very interesting way. There's some great humor, and its just perfect - my favorite movie.
