When the pope dies, backbiting, infighting and ruthless smear campaigning taint the effort to find his successor. Ralph Fiennes stars in a film perfectly timed for this nail-biting election season.
In Anora, Mikey Madison plays a sex worker who dances at a strip club and meets — and marries — the son of a Russian oligarch. Filmmaker Sean Baker seems to anticipate and avoid conventions about on-screen violence.
Woman of the Hour was inspired by a real-life serial killer who appeared on The Dating Game in the 1970s. Anna Kendrick directed and stars in the new Netflix film.
Anora is easily one of Sean Baker’s funniest works — and also one of the saddest. The film won the Palme d'Or at Cannes, and the director says it's dedicated to sex workers "past, present and future."

In The Substance, Demi Moore plays an aerobics TV star who turns 50 and is promptly ousted from her gig in Hollywood. She and Margaret Qualley duke it out in this excruciating body horror tale.
A new film follows Trey Parker and Matt Stone as they renovate a dilapidated, inauthentic, 1970s Mexican restaurant. The labor of love becomes a money-pit as they chase the landmark's former glory.
Natasha Lyonne, Elizabeth Olsen and Carrie Coon play estranged sisters saying farewell to their terminally ill dad. It's a familiar plot, but writer-director Azazel Jacobs manages to sidesteps cliché.
