Colin’s Picks:
Knives Out – Rian Johnson made an original movie again! And it’s a whodunit! Two of my favorite things are combining! Exclamation points!
The Irishman – I was worried this was going to be a disaster, but apparently it’s great. Nice job, Martin Scorses and CGI-youngified De Niro, Pesci, and Pacino.
Marriage Story – Love me some Noah Baumbach.
Waves – Trey Edward Shults is always one to watch.
The Report – Oh cool something else to make me very angry at politics.
Honey Boy – Team Shia.
Queen & Slim – It’s like Jay-Z & Beyoncé’s “’03 Bonnie & Clyde” became a movie, and now I want more movies based on songs of my youth.
Dark Waters – Mark Ruffalo, Anne Hathaway, and Todd Haynes(!) are Erin Brockoviching their way around DuPont Chemicals and I want to cheer on that journey.
21 Bridges – Is this movie finally coming out?!
Ford v Ferrari – If I have to choose… Ford, I guess?
Shefali’s Picks:
Too many this month that I want to see! Have to break out that AMC A-List.
Queen & Slim – Excited for the acting in this! Already got chills from the trailer.
Last Christmas – What can I say I’m a sucker for rom coms, especially ones written by Emma Thompson. Also, is Henry Goulding’s character a ghost??
Frozen 2 – Obligatory movie to see with my Mom when I’m home for Thanksgiving.
Honey Boy – Heard a lot of great things about this film at Sundance!
The Good Liar – With this all star team, I have no idea what the plot is going to be, but I’m down.
Charlie’s Angels – This is already getting a bit over hyped, but I’m still excited.
Doctor Sleep – Excited for all the callbacks!!
Marriage Story & The Report – For our yearly dose of Adam Driver.
The King – Have to also check up on Timothee and see how he does with the British accent.
I Lost My Body – This plot sounds so insane! But the animation looks really interesting.
Round Two: Hala – A Sundance favorite of mine! Geraldine Viswanathan gives a great performance.
