10 . Four Best Films for You
Dune
Now at last we have a big-screen Dune that may actually do justice to Frank Herbert’s science-fiction novel. Directed by Denis Villeneuve, the film runs for 155 minutes and still only covers the first half of the book.
The French Dispatch
It’s the 10th film of Wes Anderson, a writer-director. In The French Dispatch, he takes his meticulous(一丝不苟的)style to new extremes, so barely does a frame go by that isn’t ornamented(雕琢)with a split screen. It tells three short stories set in the fictional French town of Ennui-sur-Blase, and supposedly drawn from the pages of a New Yorker-style magazine in the mid-20th Century.
Spider-Man: No Way Home
Now that Marvel’s superheroes have saved the universe, their next job is obvious: they have to save the multiverse. In the third of the Spider-Man blockbusters starring Tom Holland, the teenage accidentally opens a portal (大门)to numerous parallel realities. “What people will be really surprised about is that it’s not fun, this film,” Holland told Total Film. “It’s dark and sad, and it’s going to be really affecting.”
Ron’s Gone Wrong
The first cartoon from a new British studio, Locksmith Animation, Ron’s Gone Wrong is a family comedy. The film’s co-writer and co-director, Sarah Smith, said, “In our movie, Barney ends up with Ron, a robot, who’s completely broken, who doesn’t agree with him and doesn’t know anything about him and they have to build this relationship from that point.”
