"There's only praise to heap on Rami Malek whose tour de force performance as Freddie Mercury will definitely rock you." - Rolling Stone

Winner of 4 Oscars, including Best Actor. “Much of the emphasis in Bryan Singer's Queen biopic is on late frontman Mercury, played by a resplendent Rami Malek, fake buck teeth and all.

NR

"Lanthimos' renegade deviltry turns a period piece into a bawdy, brilliant triumph. Expect Oscar to bow down to Emma Stone, Rachel Weisz and the mighty Olivia Colman as Queen Anne for bringing a #MeToo punch to 18th-century British politics." - Rolling Stone

"At once charming and heart-wrenching, this exquisitely performed film will steal the hearts of both art-house and mainstream audiences." - Variety

Oscar-Nominated: Best Foreign Language Film. “Master Japanese filmmaker Hirokazu Kore-eda’s latest film Shoplifters is about a family, but a very different kind.
