True stories dominate my picks for the best movies of 2013

Chiwetel Ejiofor as a free black sold into slavery propelled my choice for best film of 2013.

Must-see films for children (Frozen) and mature folks (Nebraska and Philomena)

Disney, Dern and Dench lead the pack this week in three wonderful films.
