Once it’s a black
Once it’s a black is a unpublished documentary that recounts the sometimes perilous journey of black comedians in Quebec. We end the viewing with the impression of better understanding what black Quebec comedians have been through since 1979, the year Normand Brathwaite landed the role of a Haitian on the show. At Denise’s.

Corruption – The shocking revelations of the Charbonneau commission
Containing public knowledge information, the first episodes of Corruption – The shocking revelations of the Charbonneau commission paint a detailed, comprehensive – and above all distressing – portrait of the practices that sullied the public service in construction. Collusion, favouritism, shenanigans, cost overruns, bribes, mafia… Everything was allowed. The number of testimonies collected is impressive.

Woman I kill you
It is precisely in these terms that each episode of the shocking docuseries is launched Woman I kill youa title as provocative as it is telling, for an equally moving subject, hosted by actress and author Ingrid Falaise.

We Need to Talk About Cosby
In a documentary series launched at Sundance, filmmaker W. Kamau Bell documents the horror-movie story surrounding comedian Bill Cosby, accused of sexual assault by more than 60 women. The strength of her documentary lies not only in the number of women who testify, but also in the weight of their words. This set forms a striking critical mass.

Kimi
Effective but conventional thriller it is neither, on the same theme, The Conversation by Coppola or Blowup by Antonioni –, Kimi stands out thanks to the know-how of Soderbergh, who knows how to film the anxiety of his particular style.

Euphoria
Euphoria is simultaneously beautiful, intoxicating and depressing. Glaucous, too. We look at a single plan and we know immediately that we are entering Euphoria with its overloaded suburban houses with brown wooden walls. Visually, it remains the most beautiful television series currently on the air.

The Gilded Age
Everything sparkles in this charming production, from the magnificent costumes to the acting of the actresses, including that of the marvelous Christine Baranski (The Good Fight), who takes on a role similar to that of the unforgettable Dowager Countess Violet Crawley (Maggie Smith) of Downton Abbey. Despite a few crinolines that roll up, this is very good television, both smart and entertaining.

And Just Like That
The first episodes ofAnd Just Like That weren’t great, but the show got better as it explored difficult themes like bereavement and alcoholism. Yes, our beloved New Yorkers have aged, like us. It became a drama series about middle-aged people who, even though they still wear beautiful clothes, feel overwhelmed and helpless. Life has caught up with them all, like us.
