13 Films to See in October
October. It's the time of year when the leaves are changing color, election season is heating up, and the Cubs are doing whatever they can to avoid a World Series title. (Well, maybe not this year.) October also marks the return of serious movies to the cineplex as the first batch of this year's awards contenders are unveiled. And there are certainly some noteworthy releases due in the coming weeks, including this year's big Sundance winner, the latest films from Ava DuVernay, Park Chan-wook, Kelly Reichardt, and Terrence Malick, and 2016's highest-scoring film.
Miss Hokusai animates the life of revered Japanese painter Hokusai by telling the story of his daughter, O-Ei, an accomplished painter during a time when women rarely picked up a brush. Director Keiichi Hara tackles more adult themes than are typically seen in animation with an episodic, impressionistic narrative, and early reviews are good.
