If you loved The Ides of March, try The Midnight Sky

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by George Clooney, and they both carry the slow burn mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Ides of March, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Midnight Sky is

Arctic snowstorm, faint radio signal, abandoned research station. A lone scientist and a young girl rush to contact a spaceship, Earth's fate unclear. Clooney's direction grounds the sci-fi premise.
