Dunkirk
If you majored in history in college as I did, this film teaches you more about an event in World War II than you will ever learn in a textbook.

12 Strong
The good news about 12 Strong is that it rises above the expected absurdity comprising most January film releases.
Darkest Hour
A penetrating film, Gary Oldman’s performance is a movie classic by any definition.
Megan Leavey
This is not a great movie, but all dog lovers are bound to get a little teary-eyed on more than one occasion.
Wonder Woman
This is a colossally entertaining film with a social significance that makes it special.
Churchill
Another tedious 2017 film.
Their Finest
This film will remind you to read “Five Came Back”, the powerful book about Hollywood directors in World War II.
Frantz
As Frantz’ father says in this film, “Aren’t parents responsible for encouraging their soldier sons to go to their grave for unknown reasons.”
The Zookeeper’s Wife
This is an average film that failed to deliver on its potential.
