Speaking of Polanski, Venus in Fur also qualifies.

Re: Examples of "intimate" movies

There's a really nice movie directed by Emilio Estevez and starring his dad Martin Sheen called The Way. It basically only has four characters who travel together on a long distance hike.

Similarly, Reese Witherspoon in Wild is pretty much just her, with some flashbacks to Laura Dern.

I'll have to give that one a try (and looking at the poster/artwork, I do seem to recall seeing a trailer for it).

I've never seen it, but isn't The Way a documentary about he and his dad hiking the pilgrimage trail in Spain?

And Wild has a huge cast. She's constantly encountering people.

I don't think anyone has mentioned Locke yet. If memory serves, the only person ever shown on screen is Tom Hardy.

Looking on IMDb, it's not a documentary.

Here's what I found in the Trivia section, however:

In an LA radio interview on "The Busted Halo Show with Father Dave", Emilio Estevez revealed that much of the inspiration he got for this film was the identical pilgrimage that his father Martin Sheen and his son Taylor Estevez made a few years before on the Camino de Santiago de Compostela in Spain. Estevez' son, then 19, fell in love, moved to Spain, and got married a few years later. Since that trip, Martin Sheen and Emilio Estevez spoke often of how they could make a film about the pilgrimage until an idea surfaced.

Buried - just Ryan Reynolds in a box for 90 minutes.

Silent Running, sort of. Bruce Dern murders the rest of the cast early in the movie.

Castaway. Although the bookends have numerous characters, much of the movie both in time and plot centers on Hank's character being alone with Wilson
