5. Inside Llewyn Davis

Starring Oscar Isaac, Carey Mulligan, and Justin Timberlake, Inside Llewyn Davis follows struggling folk singer Llewyn Davis as he navigates the gritty 1960s New York music scene with nothing but his guitar, a stubborn streak, and, occasionally, a runaway cat. It’s insightful because it shows how chasing dreams isn’t always glamorous, sometimes it’s just about cold apartments, bad gigs, and existential crises. Released in 2013 and directed by the Coen Brothers, this film hits all the right notes of heartbreak, humour, and artistic struggle.
