Films To Watch

As we head out of Summer and into the 'For Your Consideration' portion of the year (my favourite time!) there are a few films that I am excited to see! Asides from the big ones such as Anna Karenina there are some smaller films that have shown at Sundance that are very much worth a look at...

Firstly we have Hello I Must Be Going. Starring Christopher Abbott fresh from the fantastic Girls. along with Melanie Lynskey (Up In The Air) stars and it looks like this could be her best performance yet. Have a look at the trailer...

Next is another beautiful looking film named Nobody Walks.

After being impressed by Girls recently, (the wonderful) Lena Dunham who was behind that is also involved in this project and so I know it must be good! She is just brilliant at bringing through the honesty of modern situations and relationships and there are plenty of those going on in this film...

Here is a film blatantly inspired by Glee called Pitch Perfect!

But don't let that put you off as it stars Anna Kendrick and Elizabeth Banks among others and looks absolutely hilarious! It comes out in October in the UK and has an edgy take on the glee club world. Take a look for yourselves...

Another film touched by Glee is Struck By Lightning which stars Chris Colfer. 

It also stars Rebel Wilson who is everywhere at the moment after being hilarious in Bridesmaids recently. Others to star are Dermot Mulroney, Christina Hendricks and Allison Janney and it looks to be a very interesting film!

And lastly Little Birds.

This gorgeous little film, which has yet to be released, has a beautiful trailer and stars the wonderful Juno Temple who is consistently excellent so you know this will be good. Another indicator for quality is the producer is from Blue Valentine. I can't wait to see what it's all about...
