《牡丹花下》（The Beguiled）

影片講述了一個發生在美國南方的復仇故事。妮可•基德曼飾演的女子寄宿學校校長同意收留科林•法瑞爾飾演的北方軍傷兵。各種衝突也由此埋下了種子。這部西方哥特式驚悚電影的演員還包括克爾斯滕•鄧斯特和艾麗•范寧。

Comments:

Sofia Coppola became the second woman ever to win the Best Director prize at Cannes for her remake of the 1971 Clint Eastwood revenge tale set in the deep South.

索菲亞•科波拉翻拍了克林特•伊斯特伍德1971年的《牡丹花下》，並憑此成為戛納電影節歷史上的第二位最佳女導演。

Coppola has shifted the original film's narrative focus from the soldier to the women, ramping up the sexual tension. "The main crux of the story is about the dynamics between a group of women all stuck together, and then also the power shifts between men and women," she told Entertainment Weekly. "So for me, it's very universal, but it's in this exotic setting of the Southern gentility."

科波拉將原版電影中的士兵視角改成女性視角，加劇了片中的性別衝突。她告訴《娛樂周刊》：「故事主要講述的是一群在一起的女性之間的互動關係，以及男女之間的權力轉移問題。對我而言，這是一個全球性的話題，但是片中南方上流社會的背景設定很有意思。」

《蜘蛛俠：英雄歸來》（Spider-Man: Homecoming）

上映時間：7月7日（美國）

Comments:

The reboot of the Spider-Man franchise is the 16th installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and Holland confirmed that his character had been part of the MCU since 2010. Director Jon Watts has said "I do feel like now that Spider-Man is a part of this big crazy universe we can definitely tell some new stories".

漫威影業此次翻拍的蜘蛛俠系列電影是其第16部作品，赫蘭德證實，蜘蛛俠從2010年起就屬於漫威電影宇宙。導演喬•沃茨稱：「我覺得現在蜘蛛俠是這個龐大的瘋狂宇宙的一分子了，我們可以明確地展開新劇情啦。」

Comments:

The third part of the rebooted trilogy has drawn praise for offering a fitting climax to a critically-acclaimed blockbuster franchise, balancing epic action with nuanced performances. The Telegraph describes the film as a soulful, mesmerizing spectacle, arguing " Matt Reeves marshals more than his fair share of battle scenes and sweeping set-pieces, but never forgets the flicker of a face can provide all the spectacle that cinema requires." Andy Serkis reprises his role as the leader of the apes, Caesar, who leaves his tribe on a revenge quest that ends in a battle between humans and hominids. It's as much about internal as external conflict, with EW commenting that "like Caesar and company, the films seem to be getting more intelligent and human as they evolve".

《敦刻爾克》（Dunkirk）

上映時間：7月13日（英國）

Brief introduction：

Nolan has re-enacted the 1940 evacuation of more than 300,000 stranded Allied troops from the beaches of Dunkirk, telling Total Film "it's on a colossal scale," but "it's a survival story more than a war film."

1940年，30多萬受困盟軍士兵從敦刻爾克海灘撤退，諾蘭重現了這一歷史事件，他告訴《完全電影》雜誌說，「這是一部大製作」，但「與其說它是戰爭片，不如說這是一個關於生存的故事」。

Comments:

Director Christopher Nolan follows up the Dark Knight trilogy, Inception and Interstellar with what's set to be one of the most ambitious historical war movies yet. He has used a real naval destroyer in battle sequences, and there have been rumours that Warner Bros paid $5m for a vintage World War II aeroplane. The ensemble cast includes Tom Hardy, Kenneth Branagh, Mark Rylance, Cillian Murphy, Fionn Whitehead and One Direction's Harry Styles, and long-time Nolan collaborator Hans Zimmer provides the score.

Catherine Deneuve drew praise from Variety for her "fearless turn as a boozing, ailing wreck" in this film written and directed by Martin Provost. Screen Daily has called the two actors "consummate performers who inhabit their diametrically opposed characters with satisfying élan".

《助產士》由馬丁•波渥斯擔任編劇及導演，《綜藝》雜誌稱讚凱瑟琳•德納芙「挑戰一個嗜酒貪杯、境況不佳、身體虛弱的角色很有勇氣」。《銀幕日報》稱，這兩位演員「用精湛的演技將兩個截然相反的角色演繹得淋漓盡致。」

Comments:

Hailed as one of the best rom-coms in recent years, The Big Sick was written by the married couple Kumail Nanjiani and Emily V Gordon, and is based on the story of their courtship. Nanjiani plays himself, while Zoe Kazan is Gordon – and the plot is "the kind of sweetly funny movie love story that's so bizarre that it has to be real", according to The Wrap.

《大病》被譽為近年來最優秀的愛情喜劇電影之一，該片由庫梅爾•南賈尼和艾米麗•V•戈登夫婦基於兩人的愛情故事改編而成。南賈尼飾演他本人，而佐伊•卡贊飾演艾米麗•V•戈登。據《The Wrap》雜誌稱，這是一部「甜蜜中帶著詼諧的愛情故事片，荒誕卻又真實」。

維姬（艾什利•康寧斯飾）被佩斯市的一對連環殺手綁架，為了求生，她試圖破壞這對情侶的關係。

Comments:

This feature debut from the Australian writer/director Ben Young is a "bone-chilling horror-thriller", according to The Guardian; "a savagely intense and frightening tale of suburban sickos that is hands down the scariest movie you'll see this year". Stephen Curry and Emma Booth play the married psychopaths, with Young looking at the motivations of female murderers and the psychodrama of destructive relationships as well as delivering shocks on a par with The Babadook or Snowtown.

這個角色來自澳大利亞作家兼導演本•揚的《愛的獵犬》，《衛報》稱，這是一部「令人毛骨悚人的恐怖片」。這個「關於郊區變態情侶的故事劇情緊張激烈、令人膽寒，能輕鬆當選今年上映的最恐怖電影。」變態情侶由蒂芬•庫里和艾瑪•布斯扮演。導演揚關注了女性殺人犯的動機，以及關於破壞性的情感的心理劇，帶給人們的衝擊不亞於《巴巴杜》或《雪鎮狂魔》。

《幽靈城》（City of Ghosts）

上映時間：7月7日（美國）

Following the citizen journalist collective Raqqa is Being Slaughtered Silently as they attempt to expose human rights violations by ISIS in their home country, the film "reveals accurate information as the first weapon of resistance", according to Canada's Globe and Mail. Heineman combines footage from RBSS – which sends reports of daily events behind enemy lines from anonymous correspondents still living there – with his own interviews at Turkish and German safe houses, and according to the Hollywood Reporter offers "a double portrait of devastation, of a truly destroyed city and of partially decimated survivors".

據加拿大《環球郵報》介紹，《幽靈城》主要講述了民間記者組織「拉卡人民正被悄悄屠殺」（RBSS）為曝光極端組織伊斯蘭國在敘利亞侵害人權的行為所做出的努力，這部電影告訴我們，「準確的信息是奮起反抗時的第一法寶」。生活在那裡的RBSS匿名記者們深入敵後將每天的新聞發送出來。海涅曼將RBSS的視頻影像和他在土耳其及德國避難所進行的採訪結合在一起，《好萊塢報道》稱該片「從兩個視角紀錄了一場災難、一個被摧毀的城市以及部分大屠殺倖存者」。

Comment:

Matthew Heineman follows his Oscar-nominated Cartel Land with what the Guardian has called "the definitive contemporary documentary about the tragedy of Syria, as well as an epoch-defining piece on modern media tactics".

《衛報》的評論認為，馬修•海涅曼的《幽靈城》「無疑是一部關於敘利亞悲劇的當代紀錄片，同時也是一部在現代媒體技術方面具有劃時代意義的作品」。此前，海涅曼憑藉《販毒之地》獲得奧斯卡提名。
