What They Had
“A deluxe ensemble cast and a judicious trickle of minor-key humor elevate debuting writer-director Elizabeth Chomko's intergenerational family drama.” David Rooney, Hollywood Reporter.
Beautiful Boy
"A test of an actor is playing someone who's split in so many ways that he moves forward while looking backwards and vice versa, and Chalamet is already a master." David Edelstein, New York Magazine/Vulture. Based on the best-selling pair of memoirs from father and son David and Nic Sheff (Steve Carrell and Timothée Chalamet), Beautiful Boy chronicles the heartbreaking and inspiring experience of survival, relapse, and recovery in a family coping with addiction over many years.

Free Solo
“A heart-stopping account of an ostensibly impossible endeavor.” Joe Morgenstern,
Wall Street Journal. Alex Honnold completes the first free solo climb of famed El Capitan's 3,000-foot vertical rock face at Yosemite National Park.
Never Look Away
“Some people will say Never Look Away is too long. . . . But much would be sacrificed, and there's something very gratifying about watching an artist discover what he wants to say and how he wants to say it, even when cramped by the society in which he lives.” Sheila O’Malley, RogerEbert.com. A sweeping romantic historical drama, Never Look Away follows 30 years in the life of a great artist - loosely based on Gerhard Richter, one of the 20th century's most admired visual artists - played by Tom Schilling.
Stan & Ollie
“Stan & Ollie, the story of the bittersweet final bow of legendary duo Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, should move and delight fans of the beloved performers while enjoyably exposing the less initiated to these comedy giants.” Gary Goldstein, Los Angeles Times.
