- A Real Pain
Jesse Eisenberg (The Social Network) and a Golden Globe-winning Kieran Culkin (HBO's Succession) play polar opposite cousins reuniting to honour their beloved late grandmother in this deft and moving dramedy.
Written and directed by Eisenberg, A Real Pain sees neurotic, hyper-articulate David (Eisenberg, playing not at all against type) and chaotic misfit Benji (a scene-stealing Culkin, ditto) clash on a group tour of Poland for Jewish Americans. Counterintuitively led by a non-Jewish Brit (Will Sharpe), their trip takes in Warsaw, Lublin and Majdanek Concentration Camp as well as their grandmother's last home in the country. Funny and packing a real emotional kick, featuring an endearing ensemble cast including Sharpe (HBO's White Lotus) and Jennifer Grey (Dirty Dancing), it's a thoughtful, character-driven look at the light and dark of life and how to reconcile them.
"Jesse Eisenberg's sauntering Holocaust tour comedy is a masterpiece" ★★★★★ The Guardian

On his own in a strange new country, László settles in Pennsylvania, where the wealthy and prominent industrialist Harrison Lee Van Buren (Guy Pearce) recognises his talent for building. But power and legacy come at a heavy cost.
An electrifying study of 20th century immigration, of the experience of Jewishness and of post-war assimilation in America, it's a story vast in scope - brilliantly performed (with a wider cast including Isaach de Bankolé, Alessandro Nivola and Joe Alwyn), evocatively shot on 70mm film and richly drawn in a way that fully earns its lengthy run time.

Diving into the frenzied 90 minutes before SNL's debut, we find barely contained madness backstage, with a young Lorne Michaels (The Fabelmans' Gabriel LaBelle) desperately trying to keep it all together before the red light goes on.
Fully recreating the creative volatility of SNL's anarchic, storied beginnings with its first stars John Belushi, Chevy Chase, Gilda Radner, Dan Akroyd and more, Saturday Night is a wildly entertaining watch and appropriately stacked with talent, including Willem Dafoe as an imposing studio exec, Matthew Rhys as George Carlin, and Succession's Nicholas Braun on double duty as both Andy Kaufman and Jim Henson.
