Date Night Picks

Tuner is the stylish thriller you didn't know you needed — a gifted piano tuner whose delicate ear for pianos turns out to be just as good at cracking safes. Leo Woodall carries it with a watchful cool, Dustin Hoffman and Jean Reno lend it gravity, and the whole thing hums with elegant tension rather than noise (critics have it at a glowing 94%). It's a smart, seductive ride that rewards leaning in together.

H Is for Hawk is a tender, atmospheric ache of a film. After losing her father, Helen finds an unlikely lifeline in a stubborn hawk named Mabel, and slowly rediscovers the beauty of being alive. Claire Foy and Brendan Gleeson give it real soul, and its 82% critics' score signals just how quietly it lands. If a wistful, hold-hands-in-the-dark evening appeals, this is one to seek out.
