In this year’s battle of the auteurs, expect to see Wes Anderson’s animated “Isle of Dogs” contend against long-overdue Paul Schrader’s “First Reformed”, “The Big Short” director Adam McKay’s Dick Cheney biopic “Backseat” starring a beefy Christian Bale, Oscar perennial Mike Leigh’s 1819 massacre drama “Peterloo”, and “Gravity” Best Director-winner Alfonso Cuaron’s return to Mexico, 70 mm black-and-white drama “Roma.”
That Netflix title was invited to Cannes, along with Paul Greengrass’ real-life terrorism drama “Norway” (November 2), but out of competition, so Ted Sarandos pulled them back to the fall festivals. That’s where we shall find out which films prove their mettle. (“Norway” is an Adapted Screenplay.)
Advance buzz is building for Yorgos Lanthimos’ royal-court dramedy “The Favourite”, starring Olivia Colman, Emma Stone, and Rachel Weisz, partly because the always off-beat Lanthimos did not write the witty original script by Deborah Davis and Tony McNamara.
