12 Films to See in September
With summer turning into fall, it is time for popcorn films to give way to more serious fare at the cineplex, though September won't be without its genre films—including a promising revival of the Blair Witch franchise. In anticipation of the month ahead, our editors have selected September's most noteworthy new movies, including new titles from Clint Eastwood, Andrea Arnold, Oliver Stone, Ron Howard, and a few intriguing debuts.
At May’s Cannes Film Festival, writer-director Andrea Arnold (Wuthering Heights) won the Jury Prize for the third time after winning in 2006 for Red Road and 2009 for Fish Tank. Her first U.S.-set movie combines two classic American teen movie genres—the coming-of-age story and the road trip movie—as it follows Star (newcomer Sasha Lane), a wild child who leaves her troubled home when she falls for a magazine subscription salesman played by Shia LaBeouf (in an unsurprisingly divisive performance). Overall, American Honey earned good reviews, but some critics found it cliché-ridden ... or worse.
