‘Dunkirk’
Dunkirk made $525 million in worldwide box office, got nominated for 8 Academy Awards (including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Cinematography), yet somehow is still flying completely under the radar in this year’s Best Picture race. What it lacks in Oscar buzz, though, it more than makes up for in quality. Christopher Nolan is a filmmaker obsessed with the concept of time, and his dazzling spin on the WWII pic avoids all the “greatest generation” cliches that tend to bog down the genre of war films.
