One noticeable consequence of this current golden age of television is that you're no longer seeing the success of a show measured by how likely it is to get an awkwardly cobbled together payday at the cinema. Instead the best shows are staying on your screens at home, and it's movies that are looking to make the leap across the artistic divide.

Whatever the approach is, here are the 10 movies that would, with the right approach and people on board, make essential TV viewing.
