A man's quiet life gets upended when a UFO crashes in his backyard in rural Pennsylvania. As he befriends the mysterious extraterrestrial, things start to get complicated when two neighbors discover it and the government begins to close in. Brought to life by an outstanding ensemble cast, Jules uses its sweet concept to grapple with poignant, universally relatable themes. Directed by Marc Turtletaub (Producer of Little Miss Sunshine and The Farewell) and starring Ben Kingsley, Harriet Sansom Harris and Jane Curtan.
It's less a sci-fi parable... than a fairy tale reminding us that the tribulations of getting old are more natural than sad, and best done in the company of loved ones. Michael O'Sullivan/Washington Post
