Film-Forward

Biopic

Stardust

An intimate portrait, zeroing in on a slice of a rock star’s life, not unlike the underrated Brian Wilson biopic, Love & Mercy.

The Glorias

Julie Taymor’s moving, timely biopic of feminist legend Gloria Steinem.

I Am Woman

The biopic tells the life story of singer Helen Reddy and reintroduces her to a new generation as a trailblazer in the feminist movement.

Radioactive

Rosamund Pike as Marie Curie presents a steely, persistent front that rarely cracks. Sam Riley matches her as her husband, the more affable Pierre.

Resistance

A biopic of the French Resistance heroics of Marcel Marceau (Jesse Eisenberg), long before he would be recognized as the world’s most renowned mime.

A Hidden Life

Not since The Sound of Music have the Austrian Alps been such scene stealers. The dramatic, mountain landscapes are the go-to visual motifs in Terrence Malick’s new meandering movie.

Honey Boy

Shia LaBeouf wrote and stars in this autobiography, and it wants you to know it.

Harriet

Any filmmaker who accepts the task of translating Harriet Tubman’s life into film is faced with a wealth of riches and immense challenges.

The Current War: Director’s Cut

Inventor Thomas Edison, mogul George Westinghouse, and Serbian visionary Nikolai Tesla headline the competition to be the first in bringing electrical power to America.
