20. Disclosure Day

Trust Steven Spielberg to deliver a warm tale of human connection and wonder right when we needed it most. He's been doing it for decades, after all, and this year, as expected, he's stayed wonderfully true to form. 

Returning to familiar ground - which is to say, returning to the stars and probing their secrets - Disclosure Day finds the revered hitmaker crafting another thrilling tale of aliens and what their existence may mean for humanity, as a trio of unlikely heroes (Josh O'Connor, Emily Blunt, Colman Domingo) attempt to tell the world the truth about extra-terrestrial life.

At once a bracing action spectacle and a mystery, Spielberg's latest is coloured throughout its thrills by the director's affecting, life-affirming worldview. Disclosure Day might be about alien life, but people are its heart, and how even in the most shaky of times, we're always stronger together. Who doesn't want to hear that from time to time?
