2. Atonement
Directed by Joe Wright
Raw emotions roil under the Masterpiece Theater trappings of this tale of love and war. Christopher Hampton brings Ian McEwan's 2002 novel to the screen with all of its fierce challenges intact. Director Joe Wright finds just the right pair of besieged lovers in Keira Knightley and James McAvoy, and he elicits a jaw-dropping turn from Saoirse Ronan, 13, as a keeper of secrets and lies.
