Alfonso Cuaron's 'Roma': if you've seen it, you know why the film has received unanimous critical acclaim, with reviewers calling it "achingly beautiful" and "engrossing". 'Roma' was chosen by Time magazine and the New York Film Critics Circle as the best film of 2018, and by the National Board Of Review as one of the top ten best films of 2018. It's earned Golden Globe nominations for Best Foreign Language Film, Best Director, and Best Screenplay. It was also selected as the Mexican entry for the Best Foreign Language Film for the 91st Academy Awards, making the December shortlist.
