The Pitters' Place

In a dystopian near-future, lonely people are obliged to find a matching mate within a 45-day period in a hotel. If they fail, they are transformed into animals and sent off into the woods, but one man escapes and finds love, despite the rules of the City.

• Pan
• Our Kind of Traitor (John Le Carre adaptations have been amazing so far)
• Child 44 (that cast!)
• Victor Frankenstein
• The Martian (provided Ridley Scott doesn't ruin it)
• Truth (I can't not watch political drama)
• Ex Machina (I really like Alex Garland, even if he does struggle with third acts)
• Slow West
• Equals (sci-fi dystopia; Nicholas Hoult)
• Our Brand Is Crisis
• Spectre (haven't disliked a single rebooted Bond film yet—yes, including Quantum of Solace)
• Sea of Trees (really, truly, genuinely didn't think I'd ever say this, but McConaughey is a major selling point here),
• Sicario
• Life (everything about it seems perfect)
• High Rise (Kill List, from the same director, was one of the freshest, most ominous modern-horror films I've seen)
• Crimson Peak (Del Toro doing horror is a must-see)
• Midnight Special
• The Lobster (surreal goodness)
• Silence (just to remind myself what real persecution of Christians might actually look like, as opposed to the faux persecution that so many of them complain about today)
• The Revenant
• The Hateful Eight
