Looking for some films with a large cast and seemingly isolated stories that become intertwined as the movie progresses
Examples: Short Cuts, Magnolia
Lots of Altman movies- Nashville has the most stories, but they're all naturalistic.

Yep. Altman flicks. Gosford is another example, as is the aforementioned Nashville. Altman's McCabe and Mrs Miller is also excellent, but definitely not an ensemble.
Ps. I saw Short Cuts in the theater when I was a teenager.
no country for old men sort of does it

The Terrorizers by Edward Yang. Not a huge cast like Altman or PTA, but a great movie with different stories very subtly intertwined.
