11 Films to See in May
May marks the official start of the summer movie season. While that means the usual assortment of superhero films (including, this week, the rather promising Captain America: Civil War), this May will also bring an atypically strong crop of indie and foreign releases, including new films from Whit Stillman, Jacques Audiard, Yorgos Lanthimos, Rebecca Miller, and more.
The surprise winner of the Palme d’Or at last year's Cannes Film Festival, the latest from director Jacques Audiard (A Prophet, Rust and Bone) follows a Tamil soldier (Antonythasan Jesuthasan) who flees the civil war in Sri Lanka for France. Forming a makeshift family with two other refugees, Dheepan attempts to establish a peaceful new life only to find himself drawn into violence on the streets of Paris. Both a realistic social drama and an action thriller, Dheepan has earned strong early reviews.
