4. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
Thrillingly unrestricted yet solidly made, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood tempers Tarantino’s inflammatory impulses with the transparency of a mature filmmaker’s vision. It’s a raucous conflict between two distinct ideas: The director’s emotional anxieties and the real story of the end of the 1960s. The plot is construed as a tapestry template that falls down in characters like twinkling beads and contemplates the story as it weaves slowly around them.

Plot: The story is about, the Director’s (Noah Baumbach) incisive and sympathetic look at a marriage breaking up and a family sticking together. The film unwraps with a montage as Charlie and Nicole list what they love about each other, a remark of positivity before things get controversial, says their therapist. Did Charlie cheat on Nicole, or is Nicole upset because she gave up what could have been a movie star lifestyle to do theatre in New York?

8. Little Women
Reflected by strong performances and lovable characters, ‘Little Women’ is a pertinent anecdote of a classic bestseller, as poetic as it is real. It can be seen as a comment for accepting the diversity within gender and not being critical.
The movie is an objection against a society which anticipates all women to obey to its concepts of the “ideal woman”, which is highly unacceptable as women have minds, souls, as well as hearts as any other human.
Plot: Jo March evaluates her life, telling the special story of the March sisters — four young women each determined to live life on her own terms and conditions. There is a representation of the unjustness when it comes to family dynamics — how one sibling is always loaded with the family commitments, while the other gets away fairly easy in life. But above all, there is also the irresistible love, concern and care which settles the issues and restores the relationships.

9. Parasite
Do you want to watch a movie that will have your belly in knots during many scenes? Or want to watch a movie that will have you conflicted about who you’re supporting? Nevertheless of your answers, watch Parasite.
The South Korean movie Parasite, ferocious, chilling is an essential thrill ride about social inequality and has made history by becoming the first foreign-language film to be succeeding as the best picture.
Words won’t do justice to this movie, as it disobeys any easy pigeonhole. Wriggles free from fitting into a single genre can be contemplated both a mainstream crowd-pleaser and masterpiece of art.
It brilliantly uncovers the capitalist policy in society that has been related to the ‘Parasite’ in the picture. The class disparity, the economical boundaries set by the same people are the entire issues, the movie revolves around, balancing all emotions fairly beautiful.
Plot: All unemployed, Kitakek and his family take a unique interest in the wealthy and glamorous Parks, as they ingratiate themselves into their lives and get intertwined in an unexpected incident.
