Although we at Lester know that the current situation may have changed our plans to enjoy the big releases in cinemas, this year the industry has not stood still and has left us with many films that you must see before the year ends.
Many of these titles are available on the main entertainment platforms, making the option of enjoying them in your living room a very attractive and convenient alternative.
We bring you our recommendations to end the year in the best way:
1917With an undeniable success with critics and audiences, this overwhelming technical feat by director Sam Mendes takes us to the crudest point of the First World War.
We live the story of two young British men facing a seemingly impossible mission. It will be a race against time through enemy territory to deliver a message that will save the lives of hundreds of soldiers.
You will also be able to enjoy a technical incident in its filming, which we won't reveal just in case, that won't leave you indifferent.
I'm thinking of quittingBased on the novel by Iain Reid, Charles Kaufman transfers his story to this Netflix film. It manages to sneak onto this list with a dreamlike puzzle and a journey into the mind of a person who is thinking about leaving their relationship.
The initial premise is a couple's journey to visit his parents. The rest is best discovered by yourself. A film that leaves no one indifferent.
TenetEvery new film directed by Christopher Nolan becomes a mass event, and this one is no different. Nolan presents us with a protagonist who will have to stop an antagonist who wants to destroy the world, doesn't it seem like a simple plot?
With a certain resemblance to a sci-fi James Bond, the plot is well seasoned with surprises and subplots that go back and forth in time. The less we delve into it, the better you will be able to live the experience that Tenet offers us. From those who call it masterful to those who call it a failure, we have to accept that it has the polarising effect of great films.
The LighthouseRobert Pattinson and Willem Dafoe, two men, an island and a lighthouse. This is the premise of Robert Eggers' new work, which seeks to capture one person's plummet into the madness of isolation, filth and toxic masculinity.
Drunkenness, great obsessions and a black and white cinematography are the perfect setting to bring out the interpretative splurge of its protagonists. A reflective journey that leaves you shocked by its frankness.
MankThis time in black and white, the most talented David Fincher returns to recreate the Hollywood of the late 1930s to tell the story of Herman J. Mankiewicz, the screenwriter of the legendary "Citizen Kane".
David Fincher has been guided by a screenplay by his own father, Jack Fincher, who looks at cinema with an unconditional love despite all that surrounds the industry and the court.
With impeccable photography and cast, led by Gary Oldman, "Mank" takes us into the process of creating a screenplay that made history for a writer tormented by his own chaotic and destructive personality for others and for himself.
We hope we have given you some new ideas about what to see for the rest of the year and that you enjoy them. Let us know what you think.
