A Weinstein Company Picture, Written by Derek Cianfrance, Cami Delavigne, Joey Curtis, Directed by Derek Cianfrance. Ryan Gosling has now partnered with Emma Stone in three films, culminating in the multiple Oscar winner ‘La La Land’ and that has now established them as one of modern cinemas great couples.

It’s no secret that this is one of the most legendary films of all time; adjusted for inflation it is one of the highest grossing films ever and it won multiple Oscars, including best picture.

A Sony Picture, Written by Erin Cressida Wilson, Directed Atom Egoyan. The erotic thriller has the potential to be one of the best genres in cinema when done right, but it is a genre that has also had so many poor films and knock offs that it is often tough to take serious. This film …
Westworld is a strange beast of a show. When it first launched, it was heralded as HBOs new Game of Thrones but it was quickly apparent that despite its large budget and scale, this was a very different sort of show. It is packed full of mystery, plot twists, and ‘intellectual’ examinations of the world. …
