2014 Year of the Doppelgänger: The Double vs The Enemy
Every year or so there is at least one pair of competing films that follow a very close premise. Some examples are: 1998's Antz and A Bug's Life, 2006's The Illusionist and the Prestige and 2012's Snow White and the Huntsman and Mirror, Mirror.
Well, 2014 (both made in 2013) is the year of the Doppelgänger:
The Double (2013)
Director: Richard Ayoade
Principal Cast: Jesse Eisenberg, Mia Wasikowska, Chris O'Dowd, Sally Hawkins, Craig Roberts, Paddy Considine, Noah Taylor, Yasmin Paige
In this comedic thriller a man (Eisenberg) is driven insane by the appearance of his doppelgänger. Directed by Richard Ayoade, Moss of the IT Crowd and director of Indie hit Submarine, this should be good.
The Enemy (2013)
Director: Denis Villeneuve
Principal Cast: Jake Gyllenhaal, Mélanie Laurent, Isabella Rosselini, Sarah Gadon
In this thriller a man seeks out his doppelgänger after spotting him in a movie. This looks really good…

David Michôd's next Aussie film is about a loner who tracks a gang who stole his car with the assistance of a guy wounded during the theft. Set in a desolate Australian outback town. Looks interesting, here the teaser trailer…

The Lunch Box (2013)
Director: Ritesh Batra
Principal Cast: Irrfan Khan, Nimrat Kaur, Nawazuddin Siddiqui
And now for something a bit lighter. The Lunch Box is about a mistaken delivery in Mumbai's efficient lunchbox delivery system (which sounds awesome) connects a young housewife with an older man. This looks really charming…

The Babadook (2014)
Director: Jennifer Kent
Cast: Essie Davis, Noah Wiseman, Daniel Henshall
Aussie Horror Flick, The Babadook, creeps me out each time I watch the trailer. Essie Davis plays a single mother, plagued by the death of her husband, who battles to cope with her son's fear of monsters only to discover it may be real.

Under the Skin (2013)
Director: Jonathan Glazer
Principal Cast: Scarlett Johansson, Paul Brannigan
This looks like something very different for Scarlett Johansson. In this Sci Fi Johansson plays an alien seductress who preys upon Hitchhikers in Scotland. Reminds me of Kubrick. Here's the teaser...

Grand Piano (2013)
Director: Eugenio Mira
Principal Cast: Elijah Wood, John Cusack
Not sure if this will come to cinemas or straight to video but I was intrigued by this trailer because of it's Hitchcock-ian feel. And I love a good Hitchcock.
Stars Elijah Wood as a pianist who suffers from stage fright and is put under some unexpected pressure during his comeback… Hitchcock would love this
