6. Professor Marston and The Wonder Women

In a just world, this would be a solid awards underdog, as opposed to a wonderful little movie no one saw.

The film follows William Moulton Marston, his wife Elizabeth, and their partner Olive Byrne through an unconventional relationship that inspired the creation of the most popular female superhero of all time. Let’s get it out of the way up front that the film's of dubious historical accuracy, at least according to some sources. Buuuuuuuuut…it's also incredibly written and full of great performances. Rebecca Hall, specifically. Like, what a wonderful performance.

Just a friendly heads up, though. This one earned a pretty hard R-rating. If you thought Logan was this year's least child-friendly comics-related movie, then hoo boy, are you in for a surprise. This one digs into a lot of the BDSM subtext that was present in Golden Age Wonder Woman comics, and explains the characters’ very personal origins. And after sitting through two 50 Shades of Grey movies (I watch a lot of movies; don't judge me) it was interesting to see BDSM portrayed on screen in a way that wasn't terrible.

A good movie about the genesis of a character that really digs into the people behind the story.
