Public humiliation has always been one of Colin from Accounts’ preferred romantic languages, so Gordon proposing to Ashley on somebody else’s crowded wedding dancefloor was practically inevitable. Season 3 makes us watch the catastrophe again. Gordon drops to one knee, Ashley freezes, phones appear around them, and his attempt to retreat by insisting the proposal was a joke only makes the room feel smaller. Then the series skips three years. It is a surprisingly ruthless move for a comedy that has spent two seasons cultivating the comfort of Ashley and Gordon’s mess. Their relationship did not survive the proposal. Ashley is...

Ian Ridley keeps an unopened bottle of vodka on the table while he eats alone. Six months sober, 11 years removed from the disappearance of his three-year-old daughter Maggie, he has apparently decided temptation should have a reserved seat at dinner. It tells you plenty about Ian before Last Seen starts dismantling what little stability he has left. Kris Mrksa’s six-part Apple TV thriller, adapted from Ryan David Jahn’s novel The Dispatcher and directed throughout by Christian Schwochow, relocates the story to the fictional Victorian town of Port McKenna. Patrick Brammall plays Ian, once a senior police investigator and now...

Fujino’s first real defeat happens on a school newspaper page. Her four-panel manga has made her a minor celebrity among classmates, and Furi Nanase plays that confidence with the loose posture of a child who has never considered talent a temporary condition. Then Kyomoto’s work appears beside hers. The backgrounds are denser, the linework surer. Fujino hears a classmate call her drawings average, and the film quietly changes the terms of her childhood. Hirokazu Koreeda’s live-action Look Back, adapted from Tatsuki Fujimoto’s one-shot manga, understands rivalry as a form of recognition. Fujino does not resent Kyomoto because the other girl...

Anna makes her first terrible decision while sitting in a hospital chapel, and Paolo Strippoli understands exactly why the scene hurts. Her seven-year-old daughter Alice has been mauled by the family dog and may lose her leg. Anna is frightened, exhausted, and staring at the collapse of a future she had already planned. Then a perfectly composed stranger appears and offers to restore that future by damaging someone else’s. That cruel exchange gives The Spiral its strongest emotional idea. Strippoli and co-writer Salvatore De Chirico turn the familiar Faustian bargain into a family system where suffering can be transferred but...

Halkawt Mustafa gets his clearest results whenever he lets geography create the danger. A broken wall, an exposed rooftop, a narrow tunnel, a church with too many unseen corners: each space tells Vyan exactly how vulnerable she is before a shot is fired. No Paradise If You Are Killed By A Woman follows Vyan, played by Avan Jamal, a 24-year-old Kurdish-Norwegian Peshmerga sniper fighting Islamic State near Mosul in 2016. She has killed over 100 enemy fighters, earned a million-dollar bounty, and built a reputation around a grim belief invoked by the film’s title: an IS fighter killed by a...

Elizabeth Holmes insists she has never lied, and the unsettling part is how little resistance the sentence seems to encounter inside her. She says it calmly, almost gently, as if guilt were merely an unfortunate interpretation imposed from outside. Nathan Fielder keeps listening. That contradiction gives You Can See Everything its peculiar pulse. Fielder and Lance Oppenheim spend roughly a month inside the Del Mar home Holmes shares with Billy Evans and their two children before she reports to Federal Prison Camp Bryan in May 2023. The documentary runs 174 minutes, yet its great subject is absence: the distance between...
