This week's Thursday Movie Picks is Period Dramas

I'm picking recent watches. And it's a theme within a theme, all the posters have the leads in profile shots.
Phantom Thread (2017)
Phantom Thread (2017)
It's an ok drama. Moody but on the dull side. And for a movie about a dressmaker the costumes didn't really stand out that much.
Darkest Hour (2017)
I liked this much more than the Phantom Thread. I like talky movies so this, which is mostly people arguing on whether to negotiate a surrender, was right up my alley. And Oldman put in a good performance. He was also unrecognizable as Churchill, the only way you could tell it was him underneath all the prosthetic and makeup was his eyes. The bit I didn't like was the Underground scene, it was presented in a rather cheesy manner.
The Little Stranger (2018)
This has the lowest IMDB rating out of the three but I enjoyed it the most. It's a slow burning creepy gothic mystery about a country doctor who forges a relationship with a family who owns a crumbling manor where strange things begin to occur.
