Our critics review “Portrait of a Lady on Fire,” about forbidden love between a painter and her subject, who’s also a woman; “The Aeronauts,” about a real-life British scientist who wanted to fly higher than ever before in a hot air balloon in 1862; “Midnight Family,” a documentary about a family in Mexico who runs a private ambulance; “In Fabric,” set in the 1980s about a dress that literally kills.
