Top 10 movies for fall 2021: Our hopes for
streams and the cineplex, from Bond on down
By Michael Phillips
Chicago Tribune
M
ovie theaters have re-
opened, and people are go-
ing back, at least to some (much?)
of what’s available. Do the studios
making those movies care? Or are
they so invested in stocking their
streaming platforms with new fi sh
to fry to give much thought to the
fate of the multiplex?
The movie capturing the
moment best, I think, is the new
James Bond fi lm “No Time to
Die.” Its very title suits the feelings
of both the vaxed, masked por-
tion of the country and the live-
free-and-die faction, millions and
millions strong. The movie’s com-
ing out Oct. 8, some 18 months
after the $250 million franchise
item was fi rst scheduled to open.
This is Daniel Craig’s fi nal Bond
picture, or so Craig says.
Unfashionably, “No Time to
Die” will open in theaters only.
Then it adds its streaming release
option a few weeks later, date yet
to be confi rmed.
Here are 10 prospects, all of
which I sincerely hope turn out to
be pips. As always, release dates
are subject to change.
‘THE MANY SAINTS OF
NEWARK,’ OCT. 1 IN
THEATERS AND ON HBO MAX
I’ve seen this one, and it’s
good — a witty, melancholy “So-
pranos” prequel in which teenage
Tony (Michael Gandolfi ni, son of
the late James Gandolfi ni) and
his loving, fraught relationship
with his uncle Dickie (Alessandro
Nivola) is framed by family tor-
ment and late 1960s unrest.
‘DIANA: THE MUSICAL,’
OCT. 1 ON NETFLIX FOR
ONE DAY ONLY; BROADWAY
PREMIERE, DEC. 16
This is Diana’s season, all right,
with Netfl ix sneaking “Come
From Away,” director Christopher
Ashley’s “Broadway capture”
