Five movies I plan to see...

1. The Imitation Game

"Sometimes it is the people who no one imagines anything of, who do the things that no one can imagine."

2. Dear White People

"There was no recent model for a satire featuring black leads and it had been decades (plural) since the films that inspired me to take on the genre (namely Do the Right Thing and Hollywood Shuffle) made their debuts." - Director, Justin Simien discusses how he made Dear White People

3. In The Heart of the Sea

"Trust gave way to doubt... hope to superstition."

4. interstellar

"We must confront the reality that nothing in our solar system can help us."

4. Horns

"Sometimes when you go through hell, the only way out is to walk deeper into the fire."

4. Kingsman: The Secret Service

"You are about to embark on the most dangerous job interview in the world."
