Esquire's the Best Movies of 2019 (So Far) - Page 2

"It's been a bountiful movie year, and this November may be the most rewarding month yet, thanks to the arrival of two incredible standouts: Martin Scorsese's mob epic The Irishman, which reunites the director with Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci (along with Al Pacino). There's Noah Baumbach's divorce drama Marriage Story, led by knockout lead turns from Adam Driver and Scarlett Johansson. Throw in the arrival of Pedro Almodóvar's excellent Pain and Glory, and you've got a trio of new releases not to be missed. There's more great stuff on the way before the calendar turns to 2020 (including an Oscar-worthy performance from…Adam Sandler?!). But for now, these are our picks for the best films of 2019."
