Cooler by the lake ...

Sean Baker ("Tangerine," "Starlet") follows a bunch of 6-year-olds who antagonize the gruff manager, played by Willem Dafoe, in "The Florida Project."

We're fans of Mike White ("The Good Girl," HBO's "Enlightened"), though we're wary that he may be going to the well once too often with his latest, starring Ben Stiller, "Brad's Status."

This documentary about vermin in Baltimore has as much to say about class and economic distinctions than about pest infestations: "Rat Film."

The latest from New Wave legend Agnes Varda is a collaboration with a 33-year-old photographer, a travelogue through France, "Faces Places."

A strong cast and filmmakers with a decent track record are drawing us to the cheesy time-warp nostalgia-fest about Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs, "Battle of the Sexes."

Strangers make passing acquaintances on a train ride through South Korea in "Autumn, Autumn."
