The theme of the second season was desire, with most of the battles emerging from the characters’ preoccupation with sex. It is a provoking story that speaks to our time.

Holdovers is decent and good-hearted, its sentimentality expertly balanced by its humor.

Epic in scope and astonishing in the world-building.

"Paul’s powers allow him to see many futures, and though he resists his role as messiah and the bloodlust he knows will come with it, he embraces that path in the end. Herbert, who died in 1986, told an interviewer in 1981 that he thought John F. Kennedy was among the most dangerous leaders of his times, “not because the man was evil, but because people didn’t question him”. In “Dune”, the bad guys are so bad, and the good guys have so many virtues and face such tragic choices, it can be hard to recognise they are not so great, either. Herbert set out to lure readers into rooting for a tyrant. He wanted to leave them wary not only of the will to dominate but of the longing to submit."

Compared to the creativity displayed in Coppola’s other biopic, Marie Antoinette, Priscilla is a more muted affair.

The film captures moments both the contrasts in Batiste’s life; in one scene Batiste guides a room full of dozens of musicians with enthusiasm, while in the next he faces depression

It’s a celebration of talent, yes, but also of the commitment, the sacrifice, the sheer tenacity required to pull off the illusion of effortlessness.

In “Reservation Dogs,” maintaining and restoring the bonds among generations — the young and the old and even the long-dead — is itself a radical and magical act.

Elders, after all, are just kids who have lived long enough; the kids are just elders who haven’t, yet. As “Reservation Dogs” depicts it, community makes possible a kind of time travel: Through those who come before you, you visit the deep past, and through those who come after, you live in times that your eyes will never see. As the elder Maximus (Graham Greene) says, “We are just echoes of things that came before.”

Triet’s filmmaking style is deliberate, an unusual approach for a story about ambiguity. She wants the viewer to decide Sandra’s guilt — she even has a minor character say so outright — and so she withholds both the answer and the pleasure of feeling like we can figure out.

As the most inclusive season, the finale serves as a satisfying farewell.
