Wonderstruck

The new trailer for Wonderstruck is really lovely on its own, with its parallel stories of two children — one in 1927, the other in 1977 — searching for prominent but elusive figures in their lives. But the use of David Bowie’s “Space Oddity” makes the trailer for Todd Haynes’ latest film even more wonderful, particularly as it transitions from a cover sung by children into the late singer’s classic version.

Here are 25 must-see movies heading to theaters this fall.

The 2017 New York Film Festival lineup is here and full of awards season contenders.

If you watch a lot of movie trailers you may have noticed a new trend in film advertising, one that is quickly coming to rival the rise of sad covers of pop songs or Imagine Dragon soundtracks: The use of the phrase “visionary director” to hype a particular filmmaker’s involvement in a movie. Though the phrase has appeared occasionally in coming attractions throughout the years, it seems to have risen substantially in popularity in the last couple months. There were two “visionary” trailers in just the last week.

A new film from Todd Haynes is always something to look forward to. The Carol and Far From Heaven filmmaker has a way of painting some of life’s most quietest moments with an evocative, emotional power. With Wonderstruck, Haynes looks at the world through a child’s eye (or in this case, two children), and the first trailer has finally arrived to give us a taste of what to expect this fall.

Julianne Moore has given some of her best work (and she has a lot of great work) in films directed by Todd Haynes. The actress appeared in Haynes’ exceedingly unnerving drama Safe and earned an Oscar nomination for her performance in Far From Heaven. For fans of the director’s collaborations with Moore, today brings very exciting news, as the actress is set to reunite with Haynes for his next project — which might result in something a bit different than what we’ve come to expect from Haynes.
