Sebastian Stan delivers his best work yet in A Different Man. His physicality of a broken, awkward man filled with self-hatred, the emotional agony of constant rejection, and then the descent into madness when he realises the masks we wear doesn’t determine our self value. 10/10

Whether you love or hate his films, you can’t deny that director Adrian Lyne was the architect of the erotic thriller. It’s not easy to create that balance, to make it sexy yet have this seething layer of violence underneath. Fatal Attraction is why we get films like Babygirl.

FRESH WATCH: While You Were Sleeping (1995) - The Fiction Department
Editor's note: While You Were Sleeping is my favourite holiday rom-com - no ifs or buts about it. I watch it every year, whether it's the holidays or not.

Here's my latest column on why Jeff Goldblum should have become/should still become a horror icon: thefictiondepartment.com/fresh-watch-...
FRESH WATCH: The Fly (1986) - The Fiction Department
Editor's note: Since it's October, I wanted George to watch a horror film. Jeff Goldblum was on my mind a fair bit because of Kaos on Netflix, so of course
