Mud....on Netflix
Mud (2012) - IMDb

....a fine story - somewhat 'Twainish' (if I may be allowed usage of a made up adjective) performed by a fine cast.

Of Gods and Men, a French film about a small community of monks in Algeria working against the inevitable during the Islamist insurgencies of the 1990s. Beautifully filmed and acted. The scene where the monks consume their last supper to the accompaniment of Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake is almost unbearably moving. Very strongly recommended.

That really is a great film, RL

The Past (Asghar Farhadi 2013)
This is the third film I have seen by Farhadi, the others being About Elly (2009) and A Separation (2011). Unlike the last two made in Iran, this latest feature is set in France but like the other films explores the tensions, deceits, misunderstandings, and pain that a lack of candour in relationships can produce. Farhadi has a way of presenting these domestic dramas in a way which enables narrative to appear to focus on its subject while also skirting the core issues which remain long after the film ends. This is one serious and seriously fine director.

Sleeper, an early Woody Allen film. I hadn't seen this since it was first released and had forgotten how heavily he used to rely on slapstick in his early days. The first section is dumb but funny but then it goes downhill fast.
