The most electrifying, fully realized cinematic take on an August Wilson play to date, George C. Wolfe‘s 1927 Chicago-set drama depicts a fateful recording session of the “Mother of Blues” and her band. The powerhouse performances from Viola Davis and the late Chadwick Boseman make the picture’s fleeting stagey limitations mostly go unnoticed. The ...
At once one of the most harrowing movies you’ll ever see—and one of the most inspiring. Steven Spielberg’s period piece stars Liam Neeson as the titular real-life merchant-turned-wartime-hero. Schindler‘s List is an unflinching account of the horrors of the Holocaust, and a testament to the power of an individual to make positive change. The Americ...

While making her first feature in South Dakota, Zhao met Brady Jandreau, a gifted horse trainer and rodeo star who suffered a near-fatal head injury, ending his competition days forever. The Rider weaves fact and fiction into an unforgettable statem...
Renée Zellweger's note-perfect, incredibly moving embodiment of Judy Garland in the twilight of her life has been rightfully hailed as a masterclass. Based on Peter Quilter's book End of the Rainbow, Rupert Goold's biopic is, if anything, a bit underrated. A focused, punchy melodrama that serves as a showbiz cautionary tale and more, Judy benefits ...
Director Mimi Leder's biopic/courtroom drama hybrid On the Basis of Sex sheds light on the early career of perhaps the most popular and culturally significant Supreme Court justice of our time. Rogue One's Felicity Jones stars as Ruth Bader Ginsburg in a picture that’s likable and likely to crowd-please, even as it plays it safer than it could have...
A spellbinding portrait of public figures’ private struggles, Stephen Frears‘ critically praised drama depicts the British Royal Family’s response to the death of Diana, Princess of Wales. Helen Mirren won an Oscar for her portrayal of Queen Elizabeth II. To enhance the contrast of their different worlds, Frears shot most scenes of Prime Minister T...
Sam Mendes' astonishing simulated one-take World War I picture was favored to clean house at the 2020 Oscars, ultimately losing top prizes to surprise sensation Parasite. It won three awards though, including an easy-to-predict victory for Roger Deakins' jaw-dropping cinematography.
Controversies surrounding accuracy aside, Mel Gibson's historical epic about Scotland's "free-dom!" is rousing, old-fashioned, extremely gory entertainment. Winner of five Oscars including Best Picture.
