To make matters worse, there is an evil force that is lurking in their house and a dark secret the two share that is coming back to haunt them with terrifying visions. They experience resentment from others and endless pressure to assimilate that only makes their difficult adjustment all that much harder.
What they find there is that this town is not only not built for them but often actively hostile to them. It stars Sope Dirisu and Wunmi Mosaku as Bol and Rial Majur, who have just narrowly escaped war in South Sudan to try to make a new life in a small English town.

Longtime fans of their work have debated which of the sections is the strongest, but you really can’t go wrong with the titular opening story “The Ballad of Buster Scruggs” starring Tim Blake Nelson as a singing gunslinger. An anthology collection of six stories centering on death and finality, The Ballad of Buster Scruggs is a darkly amusing combination of everything the Coens do best. If The Ballad of Buster Scruggs is their last collaboration together, it's an appropriate conclusion to one of the most fruitful partnerships in cinema history. Ethan is currently working on the stage in New York, and Joel directed A24’s The Tragedy of Macbeth without his brother. There’s a very distinct possibility that The Ballad of Buster Scruggs is the last film that Joel and Ethan Coen will ever work on together. Run Time: 2 hr 12 min | Genre: Western Drama | Director: Joel and Ethan CoenĬast: Tim Blake Nelson, James Franco, Liam Neeson, Zoe Kazan, Brendan Gleeson, Tom Waits, Henry Melling Lisa is unsettling in a way that goes against type for Gyllenhaal, rivaling her brother’s performances in films like Velvet Buzzsaw, forcing audiences to question how much trust we put in others, and what the idea of fame is capable of doing to us. Using the boy’s talent to her advantage, she adopts his poetry as her own to impress her writing tutor ( Gael García Bernal), but soon escalates her behavior, isolating the boy from his own family and friends and attempting to use his talent for her own personal gain. Her life takes a turn for the chaotic when one of her students, Jimmy ( Parker Sevak), displays a remarkable talent for poetry - something she seems to lack. Asking the question of what we’re willing to do for a little notoriety, The Kindergarten Teacher follows Maggie Gyllenhaal’s Lisa, a struggling elementary school teacher who wants nothing more than to escape her dull, difficult life by way of her poetry. Remakes of international films for an American market are not uncommon, but it’s very rare that the newer projects accomplish just what their predecessors were gunning for, and Sara Colangelo’s directorial debut is one of them. Run Time: 1 hr 36 min | Genre: Drama | Director: Sara ColangeloĬast: Maggie Gyllenhaal, Gael García Bernal, Parker Sevak, Anna Baryshnikov, Rosa Salazar, Michael Chernus
