‘There Will Be Blood’ (2007)
There Will Be Blood is considered to be one of the best films director and screenwriter Paul Thomas Anderson has ever made. It’s also the film that helped Daniel Day-Lewis earn his second Academy Award for Best Actor. Day-Lewis plays Daniel Plainview, an unscrupulous oil baron in the early 20th century. He’s so conniving that even his decision to adopt H.W. (Russell Harvard) was made because Daniel thought it would help him attract investors.
Daniel’s oil empire hits a snag when he purchases land owned by Paul and Eli Sunday, both of whom are portrayed by Paul Dano. From there, a series of misfortunes set back Daniel’s agenda and grievously wound H.W. and more. That’s just the beginning of Daniel’s reckoning. This man has made a lot of enemies over the years, and they’re coming to collect.

‘The Mask of Zorro’ (1998)
In 1998, director Martin Campbell pulled off the difficult trick of making the pulp hero Zorro exciting for modern audiences. The Mask of Zorro gave the masked hero a dynamic reimagining and cast Anthony Hopkins as Don Diego de la Vega, the original Zorro. After protecting the people of California for decades, Zorro’s secret identity is exposed, and he is imprisoned as his greatest enemy, Don Rafael Montero (Stuart Wilson), takes his infant daughter, Elena, as his own.
Two decades later, Don Diego escapes and encounters a thief, Alejandro Murrieta (Antonio Banderas), who has his own grudge against Don Montero. Under the guidance of Don Diego, Alejandro takes up the mantle of Zorro, and the men plot their revenge on Montero. However, the presence of a now grown-up Elena (Catherine Zeta-Jones) and sinister plans for California complicate Zorro’s next move.

‘Labyrinth’ (1986)
Muppets fans must have been shocked when they saw how dark Jim Henson‘s Labyrinth was in 1986. That may explain why it failed at the box office, but the film has become a cult classic over the last four decades. Henson’s creations are used throughout the movie, but the two primary performers, Jennifer Connelly and David Bowie, add depth to the film with their compelling performances.
Connelly plays Sarah Williams, a teenage girl who resents her infant half-brother, Toby (Toby Froud). That doesn’t mean she literally wanted the goblin king Jareth (Bowie) to snatch Tobey from this world. To reclaim her sibling, Sarah has a limited time to make her way through Jareth’s labyrinth. If she fails, her brother will become a goblin, and Sarah may never make it back to the human world.

‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s’ (1961)
Breakfast at Tiffany‘s is considered to be one of the all-time great romantic comedies, as well as one of Audrey Hepburn‘s best films. The Hollywood icon plays Holly Golightly, a woman who wasn’t always the suave socialite that she pretends to be now. George Peppard costars as Paul Varjak, a writer who moves into Holly’s apartment building and strikes up a friendship with her.
The ’80s were a great decade for film, and many of its movies remain popular four decades later. In many ways, the ’80s paved the way for Hollywood’s turn towards blockbusters, but there were still serious films that could become breakout hits. Watch With Us has selected our picks for the best movies of every […]
Holly and Paul both have some skeletons in their closets regarding current and former lovers in their lives. In certain ways, they’re both pretending to be something they aren’t. But with so many walls between them, their chances of finding real love with each other seem increasingly unlikely.

‘The Report’ (2019)
The Report is a political drama/thriller based on the true story of the Senate’s investigation into the “enhanced interrogations” that the CIA conducted in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks. At the behest of Senator Dianne Feinstein (Annette Bening), Senate investigator Daniel Jones (Adam Driver) leads a years-long inquiry into the CIA’s actions and the agency’s attempt to cover it up.
Despite being stonewalled, Jones assembles a strong case against the CIA. However, the spy agency doesn’t simply allow Jones to release damaging information, and it threatens him with criminal charges that may bury the investigation and end his career with the Senate.
