One Night in Miami (2020)

 

A fictional account of one incredible night where icons Muhammad Ali, Malcom x, Sam Cooke and Jim Brown gathered discussing their roles in the Civil Rights Movement and cultural upheaval of the 60s. 

Although obviously based on a one-room stage play, the director skillfully stages this adaptation with imaginative camerawork and several flashback scenes; moreover, the four main actors manage to present their interactions with drama, suspense and humor.

The Way of War (2009)

A target of his own country due to the volatile knowledge he now possesses, a highly trained government assassin attempts to stay out of the crosshairs long enough to expose the truth and ensure that justice is served.

The movie has some pretensions about saying something about war and does have a slow, brooding atmosphere, but the narrative is full of ellipses and quite incoherent.
