Good things come in smaller sizes this month, too, with comedy-drama ‘Pretty Red Dress’ delivering a heartfelt story of Black masculinity set in South London.

Harrison Ford picks up the bullwhip and fedora for his fourth outing (fifth, if you include ‘The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull’, which apparently you have to) in the pacy and fun ‘ Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny’, and Wes Anderson’s ‘ Asteroid City’ delivers a touching story of lockdown and family life in his own witty answer to Area 51.
