(Photo by Universal Pictures) Horror and comedy have made for fine bedfellows on occasion over the years — and the horror genre has also made plenty of room for hard-hitting social commentary, too. But it takes a certain amount of chutzpah for a filmmaker to try blending all three at once, and first-time filmmaker Jordan Peele was definitely taking...
There’s no shortage of coming-of-age movies. But it’s far too uncommon to see one that empathetically depicts the turning corners of adolescence from a female perspective — which is just one reason Lady Bird proved such a critic’s darling in 2017.

With Paul Thomas Anderson at the helm and his There Will Be Blood star Daniel Day-Lewis leading the cast — with what’s being billed as his final role,...
(Photo by Niko Tavernise/20th Century Fox Film Corp.) A uniquely well-timed period drama based on real-life events with obvious parallels to the present, Steven Spielberg’s The Post was pegged as an awards favorite from the moment it was announced. With Spielberg at the helm, a top-notch ensemble cast led by Tom Hanks and Meryl Streep, and a politi...
(Photo by Jack English/Focus Features) World War II remains one of the most pivotal conflicts in recorded human history, so it’s only natural that Hollywood’s produced so many movies about or inspired by it. On the other hand, that rich cinematic history makes it all but impossible for a new addition to stand out — unless, that is, it’s built from ...
