Soul《心灵奇旅》
豆瓣评分：9.1
In the first Pixar cartoon to have an African-American lead character, Jamie Foxx provides the voice of a music teacher who dreams of making it as a jazz pianist in New York. But just after a successful audition, he falls down a manhole, and finds himself in an astral realm where human spirits are assigned their personalities. And things get even more surreal from there.

Nomadland《无依之地》
豆瓣评分：8.7
When Fern (Frances McDormand) is widowed, she can’t afford to live in a house of her own, so she packs her few belongings into a camper van, and drives off into the Nevada desert. She soon discovers that she isn’t alone: there is a large community of senior citizens who have been forced to live on the road, supporting themselves with short-term jobs along the way. What makes Nomadlandunique is that while Fern is played by an Oscar-winning actress, nearly all of the people she meets are real nomads who recount their own experiences. Written and directed by Chloe Zhao (The Rider), the film is a “hybrid of documentary and fiction”.
费恩（弗兰西斯·麦克多蒙德饰演）失去丈夫后，她住不起自己的房子，于是就收拾了仅有的一点个人物品放在露营车上，开车去了内华达沙漠。她很快便发现，自己不是一个人：这里居住着一大群老年人，他们被迫住在公路上，靠着沿途做点短期工作来糊口。这部电影的独特之处在于，尽管费恩的扮演者是获得奥斯卡奖的女演员，但费恩在路上所遇到的几乎所有人都是真正的流浪者，他们只是在讲述自己的亲身经历。这部电影由赵婷（曾执导过《骑士》）担任编剧和导演，是一部“纪实和虚构相混合的影片”。

Still from Wolfwalkers. (Credit: Apple TV ）
Wolfwalkers《狼行者》
豆瓣评分：8.1
The year’s finest animated film doesn’t come from Dreamworks or Pixar, but from Cartoon Saloon, an Irish studio specialising in Celtic folklore and stylised hand-drawn 2D art. Their latest rousing fairy tale is set in the mid 17th-Century, when English soldiers are trying to tame the wild woods near Kilkenny. One hunter’s daughter learns that there aren’t just wolves in the forest, but “wolfwalkers” who can change into wolves at night. Richard Whittaker in the Austin Chroniclepraises “a heartwarming story of family and friendship, a family-friendly examination of the horror of repression, a bracing adventure about two girls finding themselves, and a stealth art history lesson… Wolfwalkers stands proud as a new classic.”
今年最杰出的动画电影不是出自梦工厂，也不是出自皮克斯，而是出自卡通沙龙动画工作室。这家爱尔兰电影工作室专注于凯尔特民间传说和风格化的手绘平面艺术。他们的这部新片讲述了发生在17世纪中叶的一个激动人心的神话故事，故事里英格兰士兵正试图攻占基尔肯尼附近的一片原始森林。一位猎人的女儿知道森林里不仅有狼，还有夜里会变成狼的“狼行者”。《奥斯汀编年史》的理查德·惠特克称赞该片是“一个关于家庭和友情的暖心故事，从家庭角度对恐怖压迫的审视，关于两个小女孩寻找自我的令人振奋的冒险，以及一堂润物细无声的艺术史课……《狼行者》是当之无愧的新经典。”
