Elsewhere, other recommendations come via the work of the Coen Brothers in The Ballad Of Buster Scruggs and The Man Who Wasn't There

The name may be familiar but it was not enough to lift the $130 million fairy tale The Nutcracker And The Four Realms from being a huge misfire for the "House of Mouse".
