81.) Trumbo [12/1/2015]

The Oscar-contenders are out in full-force as the year draws to a close, and a film about Hollywood with an All-Star Cast of dramatic actors is bound to be considered for Best [Something] (likely film); this movie did not disappoint: Bryan Cranston (as Dalton Trumbo) managed to sermonize without being ham-fisted, the characters were well-rounded and developed, and the whole film was rife with parallel metaphors for how the language we use to disagree with others can have terrible consequences for those ostracized (refugees, Planned Parenthood, Liberals V Conservatives, et. al).
