10 Films to See in August
August may not be a strong month for quality blockbuster releases—just look at the advance reviews for Suicide Squad, for example—but that doesn't mean there won't be anything good to see in theaters. Below, we pick out the month's most promising new films, including several Sundance hits.
Parker Sawyers and Tika Sumpter star as Barack Obama and Michelle Robinson in writer-director Richard Tanne’s depiction of what might have happened on the first date between the future President and First Lady. This bit of historical fiction was warmly received by critics at Sundance, and it could serve as a remedy for the current political climate. At the very least, it's a reminder of the people behind the public personas—a simple story about two individuals spending the day together, getting to know each other, and sharing their hopes and fears.
