What to watch on Crave? Here are some suggestions for furnishing your evenings.
yellow jackets, season 2
The second season of Yellowjackets looks even more sinister, creepy and disturbing than the first, although perhaps less surprising. But despite a softer and more diluted plot, it’s stronger than us, we obviously want to know the meaning of the mystical symbols engraved in the trees and, above all, to see how the girls managed to survive for 19 months in the middle of the forest, without conveniences, without anything at all.

Disobey: Chantale Daigle’s choice
The vintage series Disobey: Chantale Daigle’s choice, which takes place between November 1988 and December 1989, becomes, alas, a series well of its time, a time when struggles won for nearly 35 years are reversed. It’s very good, what the team behind this production has meticulously concocted, with remarkable attention to detail.

Succession, season 4
There are shows I have to watch for my job that make me want to open my brain with a nail bar. There are also great shows that make me want to seize the day and let life take its course. This is the case of Succession. It’s probably the most brilliant, cynical, funniest and cringest thing on American television right now.

you will remember me
Éric Tessier has brought together an excellent cast, dominated by a great performance – yet another – by Rémy Girard. The actor manages to evoke the inner turmoil of a being well aware of his inevitable decline, who clings to a past that is sometimes still too real, whose gaze can nevertheless be emptied of all recent memory in an instant. Borrowing a classic approach, putting himself entirely at the service of the story and the characters, Éric Tessier has also been able to avoid all pathos and does not underline anything in broad strokes. His film only becomes more moving.
Marc-Andre Lussier
viking
Having offered nothing on the big screen since You sleep Nicoleeight years ago, Stéphane Lafleur is back in force with viking. This improbable science-fiction tragicomedy fits perfectly into the quirky universe of the one who imposed himself from Continental, a film without a gunhis first feature film, to then refine his style thanks to On familiar ground. viking will delight fans of Stéphane Lafleur’s cinema. As a fourth feature film, the filmmaker offers a completely original story, which reveals something of our humanity while eradicating the intrinsic humor that stems from it, sometimes even with poetry. It’s not that common.

The 12 labors of Imelda
There are films that come to us from left field – unexpected, unconventional and a bit crazy. And then there are those to the left of left field. The 12 labors of Imelda falls into this category. One of the great assets of this film is based on the quality of acting of its performers. Martin Villeneuve has pulled off a tour de force by surrounding himself with excellent actors (Yves Jacques and Antoine Bertrand also make appearances). A film that completes a cycle of almost 10 years for the director, who pays his grandmother an ultimate tribute to his image: both funny and dramatic, and completely disconcerting.

The Last of Us
The Last of Us is by far the best work from a video game we’ve seen. In fact, after watching five of the nine episodes, it’s safe to say that this is just plain great TV, regardless of its inspiration. We are hooked from the start by authentic characters and a long action sequence worthy of the worst nightmares.

See How They Run
See How They Run (Spectacular turn of events, in French) is cleverly edited, so as to play with our perception and thicken the plot of this classic “whodunit” (taken from “who’s done it”, qualifying the works as an enigma). Looking at the thread, we become guardians of the secret it contains. The process is clever. Intriguing and well put together, See How They Run is delightful to watch and satisfying to finish.
