David Cronenberg is set to return to the big screen after an eight-year break from feature filmmaking with "Crimes of the Future" (not to be confused with his 1970 film of the same name) which is set to have its world premiere at this year's Cannes Film Festival. Cronenberg is known for popularizing the body horror genre and for generally causing controversy with his depictions of violence and sexuality. "Crimes of the Future" marks his return to the body horror genre that he helped make popular back at his peak in the 1980s. In preparation for his latest feature film, here are some recommended movies of his that will make it easy to understand what makes Cronenberg such a special and unique filmmaker.

"Prolific" doesn't even accurately describe just how bountiful Stephen King's artistic output is. Since his first published novel, "Carrie," was released in 1974, there has never been a time when a King story couldn't be found on bookstores' "new releases" shelf. The authorial juggernaut has published 64 novels and hundreds of short stories, but he's not just a legendary name among literary circles. Forty-eight film adaptations of his works have been made, including numerous television movies, miniseries, spin-offs, and sequels. But one era stands as specifically crucial to the horror mastermind's place in cinematic history: the 1980s. After the 1976 release of "Carrie" marked the film debut for King's stories, the '80s proved to be a massive decade for King movies, with 15 released in total. While most of these films are obviously of the horror genre, they're all quite different in terms of content, tone, and perhaps most notably, quality. The '80s was a time when Stephen King went from a well-known personality to a branded superstar whose very name guaranteed attention and interest from filmgoers. With the upcoming release of "Firestarter," a remake of the 1984 King adaptation of the same name, now is the perfect time to explore this pivotal decade of films written by or adapted from the works of Stephen King.

There's no one like Nicolas Cage. He's a singular presence on the big screen; so extreme and uninhibited that you can barely take your eyes off him. His good is great, and his bad is the stuff that memes are made of. He's also endured so many eras that there are different Cages to choose from. Do you prefer his quirky romantic films in the 1980s? His blockbuster run in the 1990s? What about his fascinating genre work in the early 2000s? It's impossible to provide all the necessary context for an actor who seemingly tosses out the rulebook with each new release. Still, we here at Next Best Picture are going to do our best to boil down Cage's essence and display it through his ten best performances. Given the actor's meta turn in "The Unbearable Weight Of Massive Talent," there's truly no better time. Let's play "Low Rider," get focused, and get to work (with respect to the "Gone In 60 Seconds" fans, despite the film not making our list).

Adrian Lyne is a fascinating case study. He created some of the most iconic imagery of the 1980s yet never became a household name. He rivaled Brian de Palma and Paul Verhoeven when it came to Hollywood filmmakers who stirred up controversy, yet he's not been given the same retroactive praise. He released his first film in two decades, "Deep Water," on Hulu this weekend, yet his return to the erotic thriller has been overshadowed by the personal lives of its stars. I'd like to redirect the focus to where it belongs. Lyne is not merely a practitioner of the erotic thriller; he is the master of the erotic thriller. He's spent five decades refining his perverse eye, and the films that have resulted have almost single-handedly revolutionized the subgenre in the mainstream. His fingerprints can be seen as high up as prestige television ("Normal People" & "Euphoria") and as low down as the "50 Shades" trilogy. However, few have been able to match his combustible blend of sex and psychology. Let's discuss how this blend came to be.

Dame Judi Dench is a figure so revered and beloved that it shouldn't have been a surprise to anyone to hear her name called on February 8th as one of the Best Supporting Actress nominees for her work in Kenneth Branagh's "Belfast." Beginning her career like so many great dames and sirs, Dench started on the British stage at the prestigious Old Victoria theatre in London. Starring as classic characters such as "Ophelia," "Juliet," "Lady Macbeth," and the West End's first Sally Bowles, Dench acted sparingly on film until the late 1990s when she became the major name of British and Hollywood cinema that she remains today.

Jesse Plemons has a remarkable track record with the Oscars among contemporary actors. In the past seven years, the 33-year-old actor has starred in six films that have been nominated for Best Picture -- "Bridge of Spies" (2015), "The Post" (2017), "Vice" (2018), "The Irishman" (2019), "Judas and the Black Messiah" (2020) and currently "The Power of the Dog." It seemed especially ironic then that Plemons had never been nominated for an Academy Award himself despite all of his Oscar-nominated films. That is, until this year. As the highly-educated but lonely George Burbank in Jane Campion's "The Power of the Dog," Plemons delivers a performance that appears reserved on the surface but slowly reveals a character with enormous emotion buried deeply underneath. Plemons' work has brought him his first Oscar nomination as Best Supporting Actor and stands as one of his best onscreen performances to date.

What movie immediately springs to mind when you hear the name, Nicolas Cage? There are certainly many movies to pick from; Cage has starred in 118 films, after all. Maybe you immediately think of his 90s action flicks, such as "Con Air," "Face/Off," or "The Rock." Perhaps you think of his more serious dramas, such as "Leaving Las Vegas," "Bringing Out the Dead," or "Adaptation?" Maybe the name Nicolas Cage makes you wince, and you immediately think of his over-the-top acting in such delightful films like "The Wicker Man," "Mom and Dad," or "Vampire's Kiss"? Whichever film you think of, there's certainly no denying the fact that Nicolas Cage has had one hell of a career.

Over the last ten days following the death of actor Christopher Plummer, there have been numerous tributes published from film historians and critics and friends and co-stars alike. What I would like to offer is a tribute from a very different perspective -- from that of a movie fan, or, more specifically, a Christopher Plummer fan.

Tom Hanks has long been considered one of the most beloved American icons. Right up there with the flag and apple pie, Hanks has carved out a place in history that allows him to be the rare celebrity beloved by just about everyone in these otherwise polarizing times. He is wise. He is comforting. He is America's dad. As Hanks' latest film, "News of the World," is set to open on Christmas Day, it is interesting to look at where both this film and role factor into his place in this tumultuous year.

When we think of performers that are overdue for Oscar love, none is as prominent as the masterful Glenn Close, an actress who has delivered consistent excellence for over 40 years on stage and screen. With seven Oscar nominations to her name, Close has been in the conversation for decades. Yet that win has long eluded her, even when it seemed imminent. This year, the veteran actress is back in the fold for her dynamic work in "Hillbilly Elegy." But what brought her to this moment? What does the trajectory of Glenn Close's remarkable career look like as she looks to add another nomination and potential win to her record? Let's take a look back at the performances and nominations of an acting legend.

I usually thought that the idea of being heartbroken about the death of a celebrity felt like a silly endeavor. That is not to say there isn’t a place to mourn the loss of an artist and what they have contributed, but becoming so emotionally invested in the death of a person you have never met rings the tiniest bit as inauthentic. However, sometimes exceptions are made. Because there are moments when the life of one person whose path you’ve never crossed has had such a profound impact that knowing they are gone is meaningful. It had been quite some time since I last felt that. That sharp pain was felt again a few days ago when the world learned of the death of Chadwick Boseman.
By Amanda Spears
It was a shock to the whole world when it was announced on Friday evening that Chadwick Boseman died at age 43 of colon cancer at his home in Los Angeles surrounded by his wife and family. He leaves behind a short but impactful legacy that touched the lives of millions of people all over the world through his dignified performances playing real-life iconic figures in history and fictionalized characters he made historic through his dedicated work. Boseman was born in South Carolina and would go on to graduate from Howard University and the British American Dramatic Academy at Oxford, England (The latter of which was paid for by fellow actor Denzel Washington). Like many actors, he got his start on television with a series of parts in everything from “Third Watch,” “Law & Order,” “CSI: NY,” “ER,” “Cold Case,” a 13 episode run on “Persons Unknown,” “Castle,” and “Justified.”

Widely regarded as one of the more daring and reliable character actors working today, Willem Dafoe has carved out a unique career over the past four decades. He has portrayed heroes, villains, anti-heroes, and everything in between. And with that varied filmography has come Oscar success with a total of, so far, three Best Supporting Actor nominations and one Best Actor nomination. His four nominations are indicative of his consistently distinctive choice of roles. They are also all surprising in their own way, whether because of a lack of precursor nominations, the unconventionality of the nominated performance compared to what the Academy usually favors, or a combination of these and other factors. In honor of his 65th birthday, let’s explore these four nominations and see what makes them so special.

Saoirse Ronan turned 26 on April 12th and has already accomplished a career’s worth of achievements. Within a 17-year career, Ronan has 33 acting credits to her name that range in television and film across a multitude of genres. Within pop culture and Hollywood, Ronan is one of the most acclaimed actresses of her generation, but can her 26th year bring another career milestone?

With "Parasite," this year's Cannes winner of the Palme d'Or, now opening in American theaters, a significant number of U.S. moviegoers will be introduced for the first time to the great South Korean director Bong Joon Ho. Next Best Picture readers are, of course, familiar with Bong, but how many of his films have they actually seen? And what would be the best way to get up to speed? Luckily, I'm here to offer you Bong-101.

When you watch a film, what is it exactly you are hoping to discover while watching? A new actor or actress? A new piece of the director, writer, cinematographer or editor's work? A mentally and psychologically challenging piece of art? Or perhaps you just would like to escape reality for a few hours and be entertained. Obviously, there's no wrong answer to this rhetorical question I've just asked but it certainly makes you wonder. Regardless of what your answer might be, we all become occupied with this when watching a movie. We allow a filmmaker to take complete and total control of our psyche through whatever it is they are showing us and they make us hear what it is they want to say. Filmmakers want to manipulate us. Some want to point out the truth or expose a lie. Some simply want to ask a question and ask us to come up with an answer or maybe even more questions. However, there are some filmmakers who don't want to give us any answers. They present so many different images on the surface that they give off the feeling that there is something much deeper going on, only for us to never fully decipher the puzzle they have put forth. Certain filmmakers want to entice us, subject us to their deepest and darkest thoughts that not only raise questions but make us contemplate everything we have ever known. These filmmakers force us to delve into the scariest corners of our minds and explore reasoning we never even thought of prior to watching any film before. And no filmmaker challenges their audience more than David Lynch.

A few weeks ago, a debate started among the writers of Next Best Picture: Who is the best actress of the decade? As we near the end of the 2010s, there are dozens of valid choices. We could we choose Nicole Kidman, who has had an amazing resurgence both in film and TV. Or Amy Adams, no doubt of the best actresses working today, and one of the most overdue for an Oscar. Or Viola Davis, winning an Oscar, an Emmy, and a Tony in this decade. All incredible women to be sure, but after much deliberation and with the release of "Dark Phoenix" coming up, I’m here to submit my choice for the Actress of the Decade: Jennifer Lawrence.

On Monday, September 13, the world lost one of the last remaining legends of Hollywood’s Golden Age: Doris Day. The former Doris Mary Kappelhoff was America’s reigning sweetheart throughout the twenty years she spent in the movies, her apple-cheeked beauty and appealing screen presence making her one of the top box office earners of all time. She was a multiple Golden Globe nominee and was honored by the HFPA with the Cecil B. DeMille Award in 1989, but received only one Oscar nomination, for 1959’s romantic comedy “Pillow Talk”.

Keanu Reeves is a Hollywood anomaly. He doesn’t have much range as an actor. He never really transforms to play a character, and as anyone who’s seen “Bram Stoker’s Dracula” can tell you, he’s not exactly a pro when it comes to accents. He has cons that would derail most of his peers, and yet, they only serve to strengthen his universal appeal. That’s because Reeves is one of the cinema’s true underdogs. Over the course of his career, few actors have proven more adept at playing ordinary men who rise to face extraordinary circumstances.

When “Twilight” burst onto screens in the fall of 2008, I admit to not being part of that fervent fandom. Mind you, I had no ill will toward those that sought enjoyment out of the film, but an eighteen-year-old film snob just wasn’t interested. As the films increased and the popularity grew, I stayed mostly on the sidelines of the franchise and resigned myself to simply not engage. Years later, when I finally watched the films, I was not terribly impressed but did feel they improved upon each new entry. Even still, the acting was never something I considered praiseworthy, particularly from the central leads.

With "The Aftermath" coming out this month, it’s a good time to look back over Keira Knightley’s best performances. Her latest film falls into a pattern of her movies that could almost be its own genre: period dramas in which Keira Knightley’s character has an affair. There certainly was a wide variety of choices for this list because even though Knightley is frequently in period films, her roles show substantial range from the hysteria-riddled Sabina in "A Dangerous Method" to the fiery Elizabeth Swan in "The Pirates of the Caribbean" films. These are my personal five picks for Keira Knightley’s best performances in a period drama.

Ryan Gosling is one of Hollywood’s quietest superstars. His films have garnered box office success, cultural staying power, and a pair of Oscar nominations to boot. As a collection of stories, however, his films represent something altogether unique. They document a career-long character arc, a maturation of Gosling’s screen persona from heartthrob and rebel to thoughtful adult; from lovesick kid hanging atop a ferris wheel to a family man walking atop the moon. It’s rare that an actor undergoes such a lengthy metamorphosis, and rarer still that they maintain their favor with audiences along the way, but such has been the case with the Ontario native.

She’s an Academy Award-winning actress, a global humanitarian worker, and one of the most role encompassing performers working today. Charlize Theron has made an exquisite career for herself and it doesn’t look like she’s putting a stop to it anytime soon. With an Oscar win under her belt for the daringly brilliant “Monster" (2003), it becomes quite clear that Theron takes her roles very seriously and sometimes they turn out to be engagingly exuberant. She’s a badass woman who rarely stumbles, and we can always expect to see great work from her, whether it be harrowing portrayals of a hope once robbed or the more lighthearted offerings and action-packed escapism. We can find yet another one of her best performances in Jason Reitman’s latest, “Tully,” which releases in theaters this weekend. While it takes a hard look at motherhood in a naturally candid light, it more than excels Theron’s acting as one of high caliber realness and pedigree. In 2007, she founded the Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project (CTAOP) in an effort to help the youth of Africa going through HIV/AIDS. She is an exemplary citizen in ventures as diverse as her acting career and this weekend, we celebrate her as she delivers another performance for the books.

As “Annihilation” pushes its way across half its production budget at the US box office and expands to Netflix internationally, there’s still time left to marvel at how a piece of science fiction film can deliver and ask a greater question about ourselves: What is it about “Annihilation” that keeps us talking? Why has it become this engrossing topic of discussion among moviegoers? Alex Garland’s second feature film is an intrepid voyage of the unknown, ultimately challenging the audience to not look away from its cerebral mastery. One could say the film is straight up psychological acid. It has a tantalizing effect that begs to ask us about ourselves. Films like this are one in a million and it makes an even bigger impact when it is resourceful of metaphysical ambiguity.

Guillermo del Toro is one of the few filmmakers with the ability to bring the world of fantasy to life. With his brilliantly accurate creature design and painstaking attention to detail in his sets, the fantasy world that del Toro has written on paper magically comes to life before our eyes. Whether it be with his large budget films like "Hellboy" or "Pacific Rim", del Toro perfectly balances style and substance. Never choosing to compromise one for the other, he is constantly focused on telling an intriguing and moving story while also setting out to dazzle us with his spectacle. And with the release of his latest film "The Shape of Water," we here at Next Best Picture have decided to take a trip into the filmography of Guillermo del Toro. So without further ado here is our ranking of Guillermo del Toro's films! You can read Matt's review of "The Shape of Water" here! |
