January 23 – Conclave

 “Carrying off papal pulp with immaculate execution and career-highlight work from Ralph Fiennes, Conclave is a godsend for audiences who crave intelligent entertainment,” says Rotten Tomatoes.

 Also starring Stanley Tucci and John Lithgow, this film is favorite of viewers and critics alike.  A high contender for  Best Picture. 

February 27 – Sing Sing

Colman Domingo is a shoo-in for a Best Actor nomination starring as Divine G, a man convicted of a crime he didn’t commit, who finds new meaning in life from acting classes he attends in prison.  The Boston Globe calls it “a beautiful film, a must see.” 

March 6 – Anora

Winner of the Palme D’Or at Cannes, this film is a powerhouse, not something usually said about a comedy/romance. 

USA Today says, “’Anora’ isn’t a fairy tale that plays by the rules of Prince Charmings and happy endings. Instead, it thankfully explores something more real: people just trying to get through the day with some sense of hope and human connection.”   This film is slated by many critics as the movie most likely to win Best Picture. 

March 27 - The Brutalist  

A critic and fan favorite getting 94% on the Tomatometer.   A high contender for Best Picture, Best Actor (Adrien Brody) and Best Supporting Actor (Guy Pearce).  Winner of the Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture Drama.  Says Vanity Fair: “Without the nuances Pearce delivers, The Brutalist would crumble.”

 

Currently rated on Gold Derby as movie most likely to win Best Picture. 

April 10– Nickel Boys

Adapted from Colson Whitehead’s novel, this movie.  As the UK’s Observer notes, “A version that is true to the book, honouring both its spirit and its structure, while also managing to be a genuinely groundbreaking cinematic work. This is a sublime piece of film-making.”
