But while there are similarities – both aesthetic and thematic – No Other Choice is less focused, more free-flowing, content to simply observe its characters once the dominoes have been set up and the first one tipped.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNews Updates\nStay ahead with our three daily briefings delivering all the key market moves, top business and political stories, and incisive analysis straight to your inbox.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt’s an exquisite piece of filmmaking, every frame drenched in colour, every shot a visual feast. It’s also hilarious, a feat of physical comedy that extends throughout the whole cast, with scenes that branch into outright slapstick. In the Academy’s 98 years it has honoured exactly one foreign film with the Best Picture gong: Parasite. No Other Choice is in the running to double that.

Daniel Day-LewisAfter starring in some of the most iconic movies of the last 40 years Daniel Day-Lewis retired after 2017’s Phantom Thread. So it was with some surprise – and a few raised eyebrows – that he announced his return last year, to co-write and star in Anemone, directed by none other than his son, Ronan Day-Lewis. Is this another masterclass from one of the finest actors of his generation or a cynical exercise in nepotism? It is, in truth, a bit of both.Day-Lewis Sr plays Ray Stoker, a former soldier living in self-imposed exile – not unlike the actor playing him – in a cabin somewhere in a Yorkshire forest. His life of self-sufficient solitude is interrupted when his brother Jem (Sean Bean) hikes through the wilderness armed with only coordinates and a message to deliver: the son Ray has never met needs his help.Given this is Ronan’s first feature, he displays a keen directorial eye. Not much happens and not much is said, so Anemone relies upon its visuals and there are some strikingly beautiful sequences. Would Day-Lewis have taken this gig were his son not at the helm? Not in a million years. Is it great to see him back regardless? It sure is.

Luca GuadagninoThis post-post-MeToo parable has the dubious honour of capturing the cultural crossroads at which we find ourselves, where social gains made over the last decade are under threat by a resurgent American right. One of these is the MeToo mantra “believe women” – that when an accusation of sexual assault is made, the default position should be to trust the accuser.Guadagnino’s film follows the head of Yale’s philosophy department Alma (Julia Roberts), her dashing younger colleague Hank (Andrew Garfield) and Alma’s favourite student Maggie (Ayo Edebiri). Things go awry when, after a drunken night out, Maggie claims to have been raped by Hank. Is she telling the truth or does she have ulterior motives? Should we believe women? Guadagnino, increasingly a love-him-or-hate-him kind of director, plays his cards close to his chest. Maggie, the precocious, performatively woke daughter of a billionaire, is certainly unlikable, while Hank has a louche, hangdog sort of charm. Of course, charming people are capable of raping unlikable people but I suspect Guadagnino is trying to say something less prosaic. What, exactly, I’m not entirely sure. (SD)Naseem and Ingle fell out over money and, in 2018 when Ingle died, Naseem wrote a heartbroken post on social media about how they never reconciled. Without being too undiplomatic, Naseem became a bit of a dick, goading audiences and opponents, and writer-director Rowan Athale gives us plenty of the uncomfy bits. Egyptian-British actor Amir El-Masry is fantastic as professional-age Naseem; you’re cheering him on at one minute and fearful of him the next when he starts backchatting Ingle as the pair’s relationship frays.Athale’s plot is occasionally too neat, but not so much that Giant couldn’t compete with the other great boxing films of late. Oh, and you’re missing a cast-iron reason to watch: Brosnan spars in the ring with a man less than a third his age. Who was it that mentioned that Bond return?
