The Invitation, good movie with touches of Mansonian-mad people
Felger will enjoy, in fact, the lead character looks like him
I watched this one a week ago, they do a good job in building it up and leaving you guessing and second guessing who is really dangerous and who is not. May not work for you if you need immediate payoffs instead of building suspense, but I really enjoyed it.
Recommended.

I saw a couple good movies on a long haul flight yesterday. The Lady in the Van is one of those quintessentially English movies based on Alan Bennett's short memoir about the real life experience of when a bag lady basically camped out in a dilapidated van in his driveway for 15 years. Bennett fans will love it.
Trambo is the true story of a leading Hollywood scriptwriter and his friends who were blacklisted for being lefties in the fifties but who overcame it by writing under fake names. Great insights into the writing of classics like Roman Holiday and Spartacus and the roles played by the likes of Edward G Robinson, Kirk Douglas, John Wayne etc on both sides of the persecution.

as for your second paragraph, with the number of fake names on here, fractious personalities, and controversial content, there's more than a dozen books/movies to be written as a result of K440 xx

i watched Midnight Special last week. It might not be everyone's cup of tea but I really enjoyed it. It kept me engaged from start to finish.

If you're Scottish and like Irvine Welsh, watch Filth.
