Cinema is the ideal medium for awakening nostalgia, a sentimental longing or wistful affection for the past, as it seamlessly combines evocative images, sounds, songs, styles, and places that transport viewers to another time. Through its powerful visual and auditory storytelling, films have a unique ability to rekindle memories of past eras, childhood, or simpler moments in life. Nostalgic movies often reflect cultural trends, iconic moments, and heart-warming themes, allowing audiences to emotionally reconnect with their own personal histories or with bygone periods.

This list highlights some nostalgia-inducing films that, through lush productions or skilful era recreation, evoke feelings and memories you might not realize you had. These films romanticize the passage of time and the loss of fleeting moments, using vivid imagery and sound to summon a deep connection to the past—even when this past is a turbulent one, or one you just want to lose yourself in.

1990's Betsy's Wedding, which also starred Molly Ringwald, was Ally Sheedy's last Brat Pack movie. Afterward, Sheedy largely focused on TV movies and independent projects. Sheedy's most robust post-Brat Pack roles have come on TV shows including Single Drunk Female.

After Betsy's Wedding, Ally Sheedy continued to act even though she left the Brat Pack behind. The Brat Pack was the name given to a group of young actors who appeared in a variety of teen movies from the mid to late 1980s. Generally, the group was considered to include anybody from the casts of the 1985 movies The Breakfast Club and St. Elmo's Fire, particularly those who collaborated with other members of that group multiple times. Given the fact that Sheedy appeared in both 1985 movies, she was a core member of the Brat Pack.

Llike the rest of the group, she eventually left her younger roles behind toward the end of the 1980s.

Welcome to Global Breakouts, Deadline’s fortnightly strand in which we shine a spotlight on the TV shows and films killing it in their local territories. The industry is as globalized as it’s ever been, but breakout hits are appearing in pockets of the world all the time and it can be hard to keep track… So, we’re going to do the hard work for you.

This week we head to Iran, where filmmaker Nima Javidi’s debut TV series has been winning awards and generating plenty of attention. Taking inspiration from the Bard himself, the show follows two friends who use their acting skills to help solve cold cases. What could possibly go wrong? Plenty, it turns out. Having won the Series Mania Grand Prize, attracting the attention of thousands of important attendees at the annual Lille confab, The Actor’s creator and seller now have their sights set globally.

With an International Panorama spangled by gems – think Spain’s “Apagón,” Sweden’s “Blackwater,” and Canada’s “Disobey” and “Little Bird” – Series Mania also weighs in this year with one, if not the, strongest and most mouthwatering of international competitions in its history.

Including the opening and closing series, Amazon’s “Greek Salad” and Netflix’s “Transatlantic,” nearly all the global streamers have titles in the lineup, from Apple TV+’s “Drops of God” and Paramount+’s “Fleeting Lies.” The lineup also features some A-List international writing talents, such as the U.K.’s Jack Thorne and Israel’s Ron Leshem and Amit Cohen, whose “The Virtues” and “No Man’s Land” rank among the most memorable of recent Series Mania competition titles, and closing the festival, out of competition, “Unorthodox’s” Anna Wenger.”Fleeting Lies” also represents one of the first series from Pedro and Agustín Almodóvar’s El Deseo label in Madrid,...

A gust of progressive and very feminine wind sweeps through the empty corridors of soon-to-crumble male institution in “The Warden”, second feature from Iranian director Nima Javidi, whose 2014 debut “Melbourne” collected a good deal of awards and consensus. Equally location-centered and set in a closed environment, The Warden is less claustrophobic than “Melbourne” and more evocative and darkly atmospheric.

“The Warden” is screening at the BFI London Film Festival 2019

A gallows with its black outline under the pouring rain is the first, strongly allusive scene of the movie. A group of prison wardens is trying to take it apart but the old artifact is too strongly built and refuses to came down. The whole prison building is about to be evacuated and the inmates relocated in new facilities due to the construction of a new airstrip just where the old building sits. Major Jahed (Navid Mohammadzadeh) is the head of...

The Dutch novelist and director’s third feature wrapped filming and entered post-production on 15 June. After wrapping principal photography in Belgium and the Netherlands, Threes Anna’s drama The Warden has entered post-production. This is the helmer’s third feature, following her award-winning directorial debut, The Bird Can’t Fly (2007), and Silent City (2012), a movie about a young European woman experiencing loneliness in Tokyo while mastering the Japanese art of filleting fish. The story of The Warden, penned in its entirety by the director herself, revolves around a biologist and experienced birdwatcher who has lived all alone on an island near the coast for many years. He is working as an ornithologist when, all of a sudden, he gets the unexpected news that he has to retire and that his post will be made defunct. The birdwatcher decides not to give up and plans his protest. The lead role is played.

Having collected a star's following in a string of wild-man roles (I'm Not Angry!, Lantouri, Sheeple), young Iranian actor Navid Mohammadzadeh is sure to surprise his fans as a middle-aged, straitlaced martinet in The Warden. The character sees his plans for promotion threatened when, in the course of moving his inmates from one prison to another, one of them goes missing. Though there's little to do but order his guards to keep searching, Mohammadzadeh gives the one-note storyline a commanding presence and a pinch of dandyish irony. Festivals interested in Iranian subjects should be the first port of call.
