The Talented Mr. Ripley

If you enjoyed Martin McDonagh's The Banshees of Inisherin, check out this earlier black comedy film about a hitman in hiding. —Gina

Brooklyn

Saoirse Ronan plays an Irish immigrant to America in this 1950s set movie. She’s torn between love of her former country and all of the new possibilities she finds in Brooklyn. —Jenny

Lady Macbeth

A young woman in 19th century rural England strikes out against her oppressive husband, stopping at nothing to get her way. —Emily

Much Ado About Nothing

There is nothing quite like a Kenneth Branagh Shakespeare adaptation and this one is stock full of famous English actors and lots of dancing and merriment. —Gina
