Best of 2017… Film – Movies still to look forward to

Nick Lay casts an eye forward to the films we still have to get excited about in 2017...

Suburbicon

Following Joel and Ethan Coen’s slick, but altogether flat addition to their back catalogue in the form of last year’s Hail, Caesar!, the kings of weird are back with a script apparently penned way back in 1986. The tale of how a brutal home invasion disrupts an unassuming community in small town 1950s America; Suburbicon promises a dose of deliciously dark comedy, intercut with spurts of Fargo-esque bloodletting.

Long time Coen brothers collaborator George Clooney directs, with Matt Damon starring atop a strong ensemble cast featuring Julianne Moore, Oscar Isaac and Josh Brolin, each of whom has worked with the Coens on at least one occasion previously.

UK release date: November 24
