Beautiful Boy
- 2018
- US
- Directed by: Felix Van Groeningen
- Cast: Steve Carell, Timothée Chalamet, Maura Tierney
David (Carell) is a successful freelance journalist whose son Nic (Chalamet) becomes dependent on meth. True-life story of family breakdown, capturing the never-ending cycle of rehab and relapse; handsomely photographed but repetitive and a bit formulaic, but Chalamet is outstanding.

Green Book
- 2018
- US
- 2h 10min
- Directed by: Peter Farrelly
- Cast: Viggo Mortensen, Mahershala Ali, Linda Cardellini
Don Shirley (Ali), virtuoso pianist, is chauffeured around the American South in 1962 by his Italian-American driver Tony (Mortensen), and much learning ensues. It’s beautifully made and very worthy, but far too gentle and broad to be effective; Tony, rather than Don, is the heart of the story and it lacks bite.

The Mule
- 2018
- US
- 15
- Directed by: Clint Eastwood
- Cast: Clint Eastwood, Bradley Cooper, Dianne Wiest
Earl (Eastwood) is a prize-winning horticulturist who, when his business faces foreclosure, becomes a drug mule for the cartels. Despite a clumsy script (based on a true story), Eastwood the director keeps the whole thing humming along to a quietly satisfying conclusion.

Stan & Ollie
- 2018
- UK / Canada / US
- Directed by: Jon S. Baird
- Cast: Steve Coogan, John C. Reilly, Shirley Henderson, Danny Huston, Nina Arianda, Rufus Jones, Susy Kane
Stan Laurel (Coogan) and Oliver Hardy (Reilly) are touring postwar Britain in the hope of bankrolling their next picture, but their time seems to be passing. A classy, ambitious look at the gruelling nature of showbiz, weaving Laurel & Hardy’s routines into the fabric of the story; Coogan is particularly good and it’s a loving nod to two of cinema’s greats.
