02
Tyrannosaur
Why this pick
Paddy Considine’s raw, compassionate debut has the same bruised social-realist texture, volatile masculinity and hard-won glimmers of human connection as The Virtues.
03
The English Game
Why this pick
Its historical setting differs, but its class-conscious British storytelling and sincere focus on damaged men searching for dignity may appeal to the humanist core of The Virtues.
04
I, Daniel Blake
Why this pick
A direct, deeply humane social drama whose plainspoken realism and concern for people failed by institutions echo the empathy and emotional force of The Virtues.
