Yesterday, we highlighted nine comedies, musicals, and animated movies to keep in your rear view as we plunge into the best time of the year for movies. Now it's time to shed light on dramas -- you do want some drama, yes, yes, yes, yes drama.
We've narrowed it down to five films that we believe will have the best chance to make it all the way to the Kodak Theater come award season next year.

The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Them, September 12
With a title like The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby, there's no way it wouldn't be on our radar. The film was actually split into two parts -- The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Him and The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Her -- in which each piece is told from the perspective of the male and female. Them is the combination of the two for your complete viewing pleasure. The always-glowing Jessica Chastain and devilishly handsome James McAvoy star as two lovers who fall in love, grow up, and fall out of love. It's a raw love story with more elements of reality than fanciful narrative. Him and Her will be released separately in select art house theaters on October 10.
