Inside Llewyn Davis: Follow a week in the life of a young folk singer as he navigates the Greenwich Village folk scene of 1961. Guitar in tow, huddled against the unforgiving New York winter, he is struggling to make it as a musician against seemingly insurmountable obstacles -- some of them of his own making.
The Promise: Set during the last days of the Ottoman Empire, The Promise follows a love triangle between Michael, a brilliant medical student, the beautiful and sophisticated Ana, and Chris - a renowned American journalist based in Paris.
Operation Finale: based on the story of how a group of Israeli secret agents arrested notorious SS officer Adolf Eichmann - the man who masterminded the "Final Solution" - in Argentina. Oscar Isaac plays the legendary Mossad agent Peter Malkin, while Ben Kingsley plays his emotionally manipulative arch-nemesis. After tracking Eichmann down to Buenos Aires, Malkin and his men captured him and brought him to Israel for a historic 8-month trial.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens: 30 years after the defeat of Darth Vader and the Empire, Rey, a scavenger from the planet Jakku, finds a BB-8 droid that knows the whereabouts of the long lost Luke Skywalker. Rey, as well as a rogue stormtrooper and two smugglers, are thrown into the middle of a battle between the Resistance and the daunting legions of the First Order.
Triple Frontier: Five former Special Forces operatives reunite to plan a heist in a sparsely populated multi-border zone of South America. For the first time in their prestigious careers these unsung heroes undertake this dangerous mission for self instead of country. But when events take an unexpected turn and threaten to spiral out of control, their skills, their loyalties and their morals are pushed to a breaking point in an epic battle for survival.
*unlike the others, I don't actually think Triple frontier was a good movie, but wow did Oscar look fine in those jeans, and I really liked his character if not the actual plot.
While Ex machina didn't really capture my interests despite Oscar's beard and super awesome artificial intelligence, it did bless us with this dance scene.
Before Supernatural made it 'cool'. From Inside Lleywn Davis which is a fun sad movie starring a fantastic orange cat, Oscar Isaac, and some dude name Justin Timberlake (with unfortunate additions by Adam Driver).
With an honorable mention to this version over here, this is one of my favorites despite the professional music video and sound. I mean he always looks and sounds good, but what this man can do in black and white is unbelievable.
This is acutally a short film called Ticky Tacky which is a fantastic dark comedy. -> A wealthy and powerful man is betrayed by those closest to him, and under the guidance of his trusted confidant, devises a fiery requital. It is the most ridiculous thing.
Finally, here is this compilation interview video:
Actually, this is my absolute favorite. I love the layers and the snow, his nose and scrunched down eyebrows, and yeah, the smell of cigs is super gross, but there's something about it in the abstract that I dig.
I love the smile! And the eye crinkles. And everything, I love everything, okay?
Hippie guitar hero.
Listen, I love me some silver in the hair.
This one is real neat it was part of a shoot at the 2016 Toronto film festival that explores the internal and external voices of celebrities.
