Lawrence of Arabia (1962) – David Lean’s epic desert adventure. The 70mm photography has no equal. Those wide shots demand the biggest screen you can find. Free on Tubi and Plex.

Barry Lyndon (1975) – Kubrick again. Every scene lit by natural light and candles. The cinematography won Oscars for good reason. Free on Kanopy.
Three films dominate conversations this month. First, Dune: Part Two continues to generate discussion. The ending leaves room for Messiah. Fans are arguing about what gets adapted and what gets cut. Second, Poor Things divides audiences. Some call it a masterpiece. Others find it exhausting. Both sides have valid points. Third, Killers of the Flower Moon keeps appearing on best of the year lists. The three hour runtime scares some viewers off. Those who watch it rarely regret the time.
Anatomy of a Fall also generates awards buzz. The lead performance from Sandra Hüller is the year’s best. Social media is full of breakdowns of the film’s ambiguous ending. Watch it before the Oscars. You will want to have an opinion.
