Anyone who uses as much salt as Samin Nosrat uses in her show is going to heave a heart attack.

I don't know if this thread doubles as a catchall for other streaming services, but Lynne Ramsay's You Were Never Really Here is on Amazon Prime now.

And BPM is on Hulu, I see.
― WmC, Monday, 5 November 2018 02:40 (five years ago) link
BPM is also on Kanopy for free.

I assigned BPM in my film class, and it was on Kanopy last week. Better be now! Papers due tomorrow.

this is prime and not netflix, but i can’t see a thread so i’m putting it here: homecoming is the best tv drama i’ve seen in years

I'm cool with this being the de facto streaming thread
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Tuesday, 6 November 2018 04:09 (five years ago) link
Thanks! We got through about 5 minutes last night and she said it was freaking her out. We went ended up watching the first two episodes of Hilda (which we both loved).
If you've also got Amazon you should totally watch Gortimer Gibbons with her - amazing kids show.

Hilda is really wonderful

I'm enjoying homecoming. I like the long drawn out endings.

the cinematography is breathtaking. the whole series is properly a work of art.
― calamity gammon (Autumn Almanac), Wednesday, 7 November 2018 08:42 (five years ago) link
There are a couple of bits which struck me as very 'Breaking Bad' - though,, of course, Breaking Bad probably wasn't the first show to show the life cycle of drugs as they're manufacturing.
The deflated endings kind of reminded me of some of the stuff Lynch did in the new TP.
― Leaghaidh am brón an t-anam bochd (dowd), Wednesday, 7 November 2018 09:18 (five years ago) link
yes! a lot of this show felt like the new twin peaks, especially the super-subtle camerawork/effects/focus techniques when things happened changed (especially one highly specific scene which i won’t mention here but is near the end of episode 8)
― calamity gammon (Autumn Almanac), Wednesday, 7 November 2018 09:27 (five years ago) link
also i think the presence of julia roberts might have turned off a lot of people, but she’s actually really great and this is in no way a typical julia roberts vehicle
― calamity gammon (Autumn Almanac), Wednesday, 7 November 2018 09:29 (five years ago) link
(as in, it’s not a cheesy romcom or a light drama)
The schlubby investigator without much personality is awesome.
― Leaghaidh am brón an t-anam bochd (dowd), Wednesday, 7 November 2018 09:30 (five years ago) link
Yeah, I'm not a big fan of Roberts - she's pretty good at kind-of-crying, holding it in, but other than that.
― Leaghaidh am brón an t-anam bochd (dowd), Wednesday, 7 November 2018 09:33 (five years ago) link
I don't dislike her.
― Leaghaidh am brón an t-anam bochd (dowd), Wednesday, 7 November 2018 09:34 (five years ago) link
yeah, she’s definitely not the best performer but she still does a fine job, and her casting plays with the audience in a way they couldn’t have done with most other people in that role
― calamity gammon (Autumn Almanac), Wednesday, 7 November 2018 09:36 (five years ago) link
you guys are making it sound good, but I don't think I could take another Esmail joint after that last one.
― calzino, Wednesday, 7 November 2018 09:41 (five years ago) link
this one’s just over five hours in total, if that helps

I haven't watched any of it! I liked this, though. But I find the ending...problematic (seems to be a trend with me atm).

I'm w calzino on this -- the Sam Esmail involvement gives me pause

This is interesting. https://www.billboard.com/articles/business/8482923/homecoming-score-soundtrack-amazon-series-julia-roberts-music
Using existing scores from such films as The French Connection, Body Heat, Capricorn One, The Eiger Sanction and All The President's Men involved clearing the music with the original rights holders and figuring out a fair licensing price. Since these scores were mainly recorded by union musicians, it also meant working with the American Federation of Musicians (AFM) to find the musicians who played on the sessions to make sure they got paid.
― DJI, Wednesday, 7 November 2018 16:20 (five years ago) link
Yeah, the soundtrack was often retro/reminiscent of old stuff. Plus Leonard Cohen!
― Leaghaidh am brón an t-anam bochd (dowd), Wednesday, 7 November 2018 16:52 (five years ago) link
I didn't know anything about this series until you guys started talking about. I loved Season 1 of Mr. Robot (haven't caught up past that yet) so maybe I'll give Homecoming a shot.

Worth watching the John Leguizamo 'Latin Peoples History for Morons' one off show although there are certainly some 'problematic' moments among the scatter of lols and mostly enervating feelage.
