20. Sound Of Metal
Having received rave reviews ever since its TIFF premiere last year, Sound of Metal stars Riz Ahmed as Ruben Stone, a drummer who begins to lose his hearing and naturally struggles to accept this fact.
Critics have called Ahmed's performance the best work of his career, in a film which reportedly shines a sensitive light on the deaf community, who are of course so criminally under-served by cinema as a whole.
If you're craving an affecting, unique drama which skirts the usual sappy, awards-baiting cliches, this evocative character study sounds like just the ticket. Could Ahmed be Oscar-bound? Wait and see.
Sound of Metal hits Amazon Prime on December 4th.
