Trumbo
A quick film history lesson for you guys. In the post-war period, the USA was in the grip of terror surrounding the threat of communism. And the biggest threat it seemed came out of that pinko, leftist Hollywood. So to show they meant business, the US government sought to weed out the subversive elements of the film industry. One of their targets was witty screenwriter Dalton Trumbo. Already the subject of a documentary of the same name (with one of the funniest movie scenes ever), this biopic looks like it will focus on the comedy in Trumbo's life. Starring Bryan Cranston, Louis CK, Diane Lane, Stephen Root, John Goodman and Helen Mirren.
The Hateful Eight
Quentin's back with another western, this time about a group of bounty hunters who want to cash in and collect the alive part of a bounty. But one of them doesn't want this to go down. A reverse Reservoir Dogs if you will. Starring all of Tarantino's favourites; Samuel L. Jackson, Kurt Russell, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, Walton Goggins, Bruce Dern and Jennifer Jason Leigh.
