Project Runway Season 22 Episode 6, “The Devil’s in the Details,” turns one of the season’s challenges into a red-carpet reveal that had actually been hidden in public for months. The remaining designers are asked to create a gown for Heidi Klum to wear to the world premiere of The Devil Wears Prada 2, an…
Don’t Say Good Luck is based on a true story, but Sophie Birenbaum is not simply screenwriter Laura Hankin under a different name. The movie grows from a striking event in Hankin’s adolescence: she landed the lead in her high school musical while her mother Deborah’s cancer was returning and worsening. Deborah later died, and…
By the time Sophie Birenbaum performs “She Used to Be Mine,” Don’t Say Good Luck has made clear that her mother Elizabeth is running out of time. The ending does not show Elizabeth dying, nor does it reveal a last-minute recovery. Instead, the film stops while Elizabeth is still alive and lets Sophie’s private backyard…

The Algorithm seems to have won when Lukas Kyle and Patrick Kennedy are attacked almost immediately after leaving Silo 18 in Silo Season 3 Episode 7, “Radio.” Gunfire cuts off their mission, communication disappears, and Camille is subsequently told that the two men have been “neutralized.” Patrick, however, is not dead, at least based on…
Jo spends most of This, That and Everything in Between convinced that Paz’s terminal illness does not give her the right to rewrite 27 years of abandonment. By the final act, that anger has not magically disappeared, and the film never gives Paz an easy absolution simply because she is dying. Jo does, however, choose…
For most of Extinction (2018), Peter believes his recurring nightmares are warning him about an alien invasion that will destroy his family. When the attack finally arrives almost exactly as he feared, the obvious explanation seems to be that Peter can somehow see the future. The ending overturns that assumption completely. Peter, Alice and their…
Reacher rarely makes life easy for Jack once he starts asking the wrong people the right questions. Season 4 is no different. Anna Merrick’s death sends him into a conspiracy involving federal agents, missing evidence and people willing to kill for a flash drive, but it also introduces one of the few local cops Reacher…
Netflix has a strange hit on its hands with The Last House. Louis Leterrier’s sci-fi thriller raced to No. 1 on Netflix’s global English-language movie chart with 27.5 million views during its first measured week, yet its reception tells an almost opposite story. At the time of writing, its Rotten Tomatoes critic and audience scores…
