Director: Adam McKay
Stars: Christian Bale, Amy Adams, Steve Carell, Sam Rockwell
As vice-president to George W Bush, Dick Cheney may have been the most influential yet mysterious political figure of modern times. How did he rise to power? What – if anything – did he believe in? McKay (The Big Short) and the almost unrecognisable Bale have hilarious, and openly partisan, answers to these questions, in an unorthodox comedy that has been nominated for six Academy Awards.

Director: Richard Linklater
Stars: Bryan Cranston, Laurence Fishburne, Steve Carell
Thirty years after serving together in Vietnam, three veterans reunite after the death of one of their sons in Iraq. While Last Flag Flying is most obviously a middle-aged male road trip movie, it has great depth – exploring regret, repentance, political deception and the bonds of friendship with a mixture of sadness and humour. This sad yet hilarious tale is driven by commanding performances from Cranston, Carell and Fishburne.
