If Rustin deals with an important element of black history that has been buried for too long, the film also offers its lead actor the opportunity to deliver an extraordinary performance! Colman Domingo (Ma Rainey’s, Zola, Euphoria) embodies a complex man. Both strong and vulnerable, brilliant and tormented, supportive and lonely. This moving performance will undoubtedly earn Domingo an Oscar selection in the category of best actor in a leading role.

Director David Fincher creates a very particular cozy atmosphere, to which the music of Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross is no stranger. Andrew Kevin Walker’s screenplay distils irresistible humor, courtesy of the pseudophilosophical mantras and pearls of wisdom of motivational gurus that the killer repeats constantly, during often hilarious interior monologues.

Larraín’s staging, meticulous and careful, dictates the rhythm of a story that is less contemplative than the Chilean filmmaker’s previous, more traditional filmed biographies, about Jackie Kennedy or Lady Diana Spencer, in particular. The symphonic and lyrical soundtrack lends itself perfectly to this particularly cynical dystopia, coupled with a family fable about corruption, avarice and greed.

For the honesty of the words, for the quality of the research and for the images where the former professional athlete talks about his new hobby as a beekeeper, Beckham achieved its goal. This miniseries, generous with archives and interviews, will satisfy sports enthusiasts and gossip fans alike.

This four-episode miniseries is chock-full of archival footage from the period’s trial and, be warned, has a frightening amount of blood-soaked photos from the crime scene. You watch it all at once and the last episode, it’s a classic, does not provide all the answers to this murky affair, which interested, at the time, as much Larry King as Geraldo Rivera.

Divided into eight one-hour segments, The Fall of House Usher revisits the work of American novelist Edgar Allan Poe in an inventive, modern and chilling way. Think of a series alloy Succession And Painkillerbut coated in morbid hallucinations and gruesome murders.

The credible historical reconstruction and the adapted visual designs give the impression of watching four dissimilar series: one Peaky Blinders in 1890, a Maltese Falcon in 1941, a Homeland in 2023 and a Years and Years in 2053. Surprisingly, all these disparate pieces form a coherent and harmonious story, without a break in tone. It is a complex, fun and original work, which entertains while stimulating several areas of our brain.

As the lovers move away from each other, the filmmaker brings them together one last time in a scene evoking the evening of their engagement. This time, passion gives way to violence. This powerful scene alone sums up the idea of Fair Play according to which every word you say and every gesture you make can turn against you, even when you yourself are a victim.

Wes Anderson, who tries to adapt The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar for years, has chosen to remain as faithful as possible to the text, thanks to characters who are both actors and narrators of the story. The artistic direction is, as always with Anderson, magnificent, with the saturated and vivid colors, or on the contrary washed out and earthy, which have made the reputation of his cinema.

Narcissistic, cantankerous, opinionated, rehashing the words of her father of Greek origin to anyone who will listen, Diane Nyad is not a character to whom we attach ourselves from the start. Fortunately, Annette Bening manages to humanize the admirable high-level athlete. At her side, in the thankless role of the altruistic and devoted friend, Jodie Foster breathes humor and lightness into her score. Proudly bearing the marks of time on their resplendent faces, the two accomplices embody the real quiet strength that carries Nyad.
