Films to watch this December!
Don’t Look Up
People are often slow to react to a disaster, whether it’s a climate emergency or a
global pandemic—and that is why Adam McKay has made his new satire (讽刺) —Don’t
Look Up. Jennifer Lawrence and Leonardo DiCaprio play two astronomers who have
figured that a “planet killer” comet is going to crash into the Earth, killing everyone. But
the US president is just one of the people who refuse to face the facts.
Spider-Man: No Way Home
Now that Marvel’s superheroes have saved the universe, their next job is obvious:
they have to save the multiverse (多元宇宙). You’re going to see characters that you love

Nightmare Alley
Nightmare Alley is a dark crime thriller based on a 1946 novel by William Lindsay
