Watch List Weekly Recap 4/15/22
Why "Severance" works so eerily well, a podcast for those "In the Mood for Love," and ten weekend movie recommendations.
This is the Friday recap of Ty Burr’s Watch List postings for the week. If you’d like to receive this weekly email ONLY, please go to your account page and under “Email notifications” uncheck every box except “Weekly Digest.” If you’d prefer to not receive it at all, uncheck just “Weekly Digest.”
It’s not just movies here at the Watch List. Tuesday I weighed in with some thoughts about “Severance,” a show that took me back to my own days in a sterile office-cubicle veal pen.
Wednesday saw the latest Watch List podcast and the fourth and final discussion with “Love Letters” columnist Meredith Goldstein about great movie romances, in this case Wong Kar-wei’s 2000 masterpiece “In the Mood for Love.”
Friday is always “what to watch this weekend” day and this time you get ten recommendations for ten different streaming services, starting with an unexpectedly touching documentary farewell to a comedian.
Thanks for reading! Feel free to pass Ty Burr’s Watch List along to your friends.
