16 Alternative Must See Films Of 2016

1. The Light Between Oceans

Pitch: The Place Beyond The Lighthouse Cast & Crew: Derek Cianfrance (Dir) Michael Fassbender, Alicia Vikander & Rachel Weisz Plot: A childless couple move to an isolated lighthouse on the coast of Western Australia when a boat washes ashore with a dead guy and a baby on-board. Believing it a sign they decide to keep the baby for themselves but things aren't that simple... Reasons to be excited: The story, based on a novel by ML Stedman, has drama, love, guilt, tragedy and suspense. In other words a lot for the considerable acting talents of Fassbender, Weisz and Ex-Machina's Vikander to get their perfectly formed teeth stuck into. With The Place Beyond The Pines and Blue Valentine director Derek Cianfrance calling the shots expect an intense character driven film that could put you off visiting a lighthouse ever again...or more likely keeping a baby you found next to a dead guy in a boat. Release date: TBC
