![Another year. A lot more movies. We’ll be getting so many cinematic works through the close of December that we can’t touch on all of them. And, in picking 24 to highlight for 2024, we have stuck with those that had official release dates, even though dates are always subject to change.

![Anthony Hopkins appears to be having a blast portraying Dr. Sigmund Freud in “Freud’s Last Session.” In select theaters this week, the film sees the wonderful, Academy Award-winning actor as an at times gleeful and borderline-mischievous version of the famed Austrian neurologist and founder of psychoanalysis as he maneuvers around his London home, debating the existence of God, the human condition and more with an invited guest: C.S.
