If English subtitles are available, the heartbreakingly slow and beautiful The Dream of Lu (2.30pm FoxCin) BEST FILM OF THE DAY moves to the top of the list, ahead of even the outstanding Winter Sleep.

Today’s number one film:

*Winter Sleep (aka Kis Uykusu) (Nuri Bilge Ceylan/ 2014/ Drama/ Turkey/ 196 mins/ PG-13 for some language and zombie violence), 10.45am Cinemax. Watch this if you liked Timbuktu,

Today’s number one film deserves its place ahead of all but one of the double-starred films in the “Just Nosed Out section” below but, if you’ve not seen one of those, you should watch that ahead of either the second or third pick in the “Also watch” section directly below.

Today’s number one film:

Locke (Steven Knight/ 2013/ Drama-Thriller/ UK-USA/ 85 mins/ R for language throughout), 4.30 HBO Caribbean. Watch this if you liked Unfriended, Snowpiercer or the original Michael Caine/Laurence Olivier Sleuth.
