In a duo of show-stopping roles for HBO’s The White Lotus and comedy series The Righteous Gemstones, the bug-eyed, Southern-accented Goggins has become a familiar and beloved fixture on the small screen.

All hail Naomi Watts. An actress blessed with the ability to turn her innocuous blonde looks into torrents of pent-up energy and anguish, she has been surprising and impressing viewers since her work with David Lynch in the 1990s. Here, she is stunning again as the solitary Iris, a creative writing teacher who has recently lost her closest pal and mentor, Walter, to suicide (Bill Murray, shown in flashback as another wry, shuffling New York writer).

Oozing arterial blood, the sweat sheen of a Deep South summer and the energetic hum of blues music, Sinners is a rare, evocative, big-budget movie that gets under your skin and stays there.

OK, bear with me: The End is a post-apocalyptic musical, which I know will send many people running for the door. Featuring Tilda Swinton and Michael Shannon living in what seems to be an underground bunker and with characters who never venture outdoors, it’s a film that boasts serious acting talent alongside a tone of surreal, bizarrely optimistic humour – its story told, of course, between bursts of song.
