Best Films of 2016 (100 movies items)" Director: Jeff Nichols His 5th movie My 3rd movie watched from the director This is a beautiful story and the performances are outstanding. The actors tell us so much without words. It's the best put-together movie I've seen from Nichols, a director I come back to but am never really sure why he is acclaimed. He's a very dry filmmaker.
