The Post (2017 Steven Spielberg)

Completely forgot it was a SS film, thus everything made sense when the end credits rolled (wish they'd stick to front credits). I thought the camera was being moved around artfully, and was really enjoying the luscious, dark photography (on celluloid), redolent of 1970s conspiracy thrillers like The Parallax View.

We were annoyed at not knowing who Sarah Paulson was. We've seen her in Carol, 12 Years a Slave, Mud and Studio 60.

Meryl Streep, Tom Hanks, Bob Odenkirk, Tracy Letts, Bradley Whitford, Bruce Greenwood, Matthew Rhys, Alison Brie, Carrie Coon, Jesse Plemons.

Written by Liz Hannah (Long Shot) with polishing by Josh Singer (Spotlight, First Man).
