Beach Rats: This bold, masterful character study concerns an aimless 19-year-old in Brooklyn who is struggling with his homosexuality. It’s not the feel-good movie of the year, but it’s one of the most exquisitely haunting LGBT coming-of-age stories ever told. Rated R. 97 minutes. — David Lewis The Fencer: This feel-good, heart-tugging film is basically an Estonian “Hoosiers” — a true story set in a 1950s small town, where a coach with a mysterious past (in this case, with Soviet police on his tail) arrives to shape a ragtag bunch of kids into tournament contenders.
