Some things I’ve experienced lately, in no particular order, and not necessarily only recent stuff:
David Byrne’s American Utopia (Movie): Wildly brilliant 🤩
A Wilderness of Error (TV): Fascinating, and great to see Errol Morris in front of the camera!
Big Rad Wolf (Quibi): Good night “sweet” prince, this was one of your best
Last Looks (Quibi): Great format and interesting stories
Borat Subsequent Moviefilm (Movie): I mean the father/daughter dance scene alone 😮
Fargo (TV): No idea where the crazy nurse storyline is going, but I’m on board
50 States of Fright (Quibi): These generally goofy stories were enjoyable across both “seasons”
Murder Unboxed (Quibi): Also an interesting short-form concept
American Murder: The Family Next Door (Movie): Totally gripping (and horrifying)
Seduced: Inside the NXIVM Cult (TV): Just when I mourned the end of one NXIVM doc, another presents itself 🎁
The Expecting (Quibi): Generally not bad, but the ending felt weak
Console Wars (Movie): Obviously
The Right Stuff (TV): I’m enjoying this, and fully owning the fact that it’s 100% a “dad show” 🚀
Wireless (Quibi): An interesting concept with so-so execution
The Assistant (Movie): They nailed the atmosphere, but it left me wanting a little more on the storytelling side
Song Exploder (TV): As a fan of the podcast, I loved how it was adapted for the screen
Kingdom of Silence (Movie): What a sad story, and I had no idea about his past embedded Bin Laden work 🤯
How To With John Wilson (TV): Just started this, but I’m super into his vibe
Rebecca (Movie): I’ve actually never seen the Hitchcock original (😱), but generally enjoyed watching this with my wife and (over Zoom) sister-in-law
The Comey Rule (TV): Basically what I expected (and tbh kinda wanted) it to be
Archive (Movie): Decent, not life-changing
