Professor Marston & the Wonder Women. True story. Written and directed by Angela Robinson. 86% score on Rotten Tomatoes. In a superhero origin tale unlike any other, the film is the incredible true story of what inspired Harvard psychologist Dr. William Moulton Marston to create the iconic Wonder Woman character in the 1940’s. While Marston’s feminist superhero was criticized by censors for her ‘sexual perversity’, he was keeping a secret that could have destroyed him. Marston’s muses for the Wonder Woman character were his wife Elizabeth Marston and their lover Olive Byrne, two empowered women who defied convention: working with Marston on human behavior research — while building a hidden life with him that rivaled the greatest of superhero disguises. Starring Luke Evans, Rebecca Hall, Connie Britton, Bella Heathcote, Angela Robinson.

The Square. Palme d’Or winner. Cannes Best Actress Award. Directed by Ruben Ostlund. IMDb pro-rating 7.7 with an 81% score from Rotten Tomatoes.  Disaster strikes when a curator hires a public relations team to build some buzz for his renowned Swedish museum.
