There’s tons of other films available to rent and purchase on VOD this week, including the Mennonite drama Women Talking starring Rooney Mara (The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo) and the new psychological drama from Darren Aronofsky (mother!) starring Brendan Fraser (The Mummy) and Sadie Sink (Stranger Things).
