Director: Michael Powell, Emeric Pressburger
Cast: Deborah Kerr, Jean Simmons, David Farrar, Sabu, Esmond Knight, Kathleen Byron, Judith Furse, Jenny Laird, Flora Robson, May Hallatt
The technical aspects – although impressive considering the special effects limitations of the era – represent a lukewarm reason to see the film and the storyline adds little in the way of a sweetener.

Genre: Drama
Director: Andrew Heckler
Cast: Garrett Hedlund, Forest Whitaker, Tom Wilkinson, Andrea Riseborough, Crystal Fox, Usher Raymond
A parable about the redemptive power of love, it's too long and many of its beats have been appropriated from other movies about Southern racism.

Genre: Horror/Thriller
Director: Leigh Whannell
Cast: Elisabeth Moss, Aldis Hodge, Storm Reid, Harriet Dyer, Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Michael Dorman

Genre: Thriller
Director: Guy Ritchie
Cast: Matthew McConaughey, Charlie Hunnam, Michelle Dockery, Jeremy Strong, Colin Farrell, Henry Golding, Hugh Grant, Eddie Marsan
