New to the Queue

Movies with meat on their bones start arriving:

It's Michael Winterbottom back with Shirley Henderson, experimenting with time in "Everyday."

Michel Gondry animates a conversation with Noam Chomsky in "Is the Man Who Is Tall Happy?"

Stephen Frears returns with what looks like a powerful drama pairing Judi Dench and Steve Coogan, "Philomena."

A pair of vintage French documentaries getting new releases: the Cinemascope look at a blacksmith, "Cousin Jules" (1971) and Chris Marker's famous celebration of peacetime "Le Joli Mai" (1962).

The latest from the Coen Brothers, of course, "Inside Llewyn Davis."

The quirky indie about a home-schooled teen, "Breakfast With Curtis."

A documentary about a high school basketball star whose fortunes diverged from his former rival LeBron James, "Lenny Cooke."

A manly movie about blue-collar brothers, set in the Iraq War era, from the director of "Crazy Heart," "Out of the Furnace."
