THE FILM STAGE'S 100 MOST ANTICIPATED FILMS OF 2016
Much like The Playlist's list in my last post, today I'm looking at a "most anticipated" film list for the new year from The Film Stage. Among those 100 films are 20 that have, at first blush, some Telluride potential. Some overlap with the list from The Playlist, some don't:
#98 Passengers
#95 HHHH
#85 Wilson
#79 The Secret Scripture
#75 The Commune
#72 Comancheria
#71 The Light Between Oceans
#70 A Hologram for the King
#67 War Machine
#53 The Beautiful Days of Aranjuez
#51 Neruda
#45 Family Photos
#44 Queen of Katme
#41 Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk
#32 It's Just the End f the World
#19 American Honey
#14 Salt and Fire
#9 The Salesman
#6 The Unknown Girl
#3 The Lost City of Z

NEW TRAILER FOR SON OF SAUL
Best Foreign Language Film nominee Son of Saul also continues to be in the forefront this Oscar season. I have included stories that accompanied the release of a new trailer for the film (trailer included below) and interviews with writer/director Laszlo Nemes.
