Burnt, starring Bradley Cooper, follows a chef who may have gained too much too soon and didn't quite know how to deal with it all.
Trumbo, starring Bryan Cranston and Helen Mirren, looks really interesting . Set in Communism-obsessed Hollywood, it's about a writer who finds a way around the blacklist.

Sidebar: I saw Woman in Gold with Helen Mirren over the summer and quite liked it. Many critics did not and I don't think it was a box office hit for sure. But I pass it along for your consideration - a true story well told.
