World cinema and foreign-language masterpieces
Edward Berger's German-language adaptation of the Remarque novel is brutal, precise, and completely uninterested in the romance of war. One of the finest anti-war films ever made.
Martin McDonagh made a film about the end of a friendship that ends up being about the end of everything. Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson are extraordinary.
A wuxia epic of extraordinary grace and feeling: action cinema as emotional expression.
A film that moves at the pace of grief: patient, precise, and quietly devastating.
A fairy tale about fascism: dark, beautiful, heartbreaking, and necessary.
A crowd-pleasing French comedy-drama built on a real friendship and two exceptional performances.
One of the great love stories in cinema: a film about looking, being seen, and the world that makes love impossible.
A masterpiece of memory and love: Cuaron's most personal film, shot in black and white, full of color.
