Peter Dinklage delivers a star turn as the stature-afflicted gentleman poet/soldier title character in director Joe Wright’s new film "Cyrano."

Despite some problems, director Kenneth Branagh's "Death on the Nile" plays as a well-crafted travelogue that happens to have a reasonably engaging murder mystery at its center.

Pedro Almodóvar's "Parallel Mothers" proves to be an outstanding depiction of the joys and crises of motherhood, as well as a stellar turn from Penélope Cruz.
