The story moves through modern Chicago, museums, fall scenery and a…
The remote vacation home in M. Night Shyamalan’s Knock at the Cabin is supposed to feel cut off from civilization, leaving Andrew, Eric, and Wen with almost no way of knowing whether the terrifying claims made by their four visitors are actually true. The production achieved that isolation in South Jersey’s Pine Barrens, but the…
Paul Greengrass’ The Uprising takes viewers deep into 14th-century England, moving from rural settlements to crowded city streets as Andrew Garfield’s Ploughman becomes caught up in the Peasants’ Revolt.

A Different World returns to Hillman College with a new generation, but Netflix’s sequel does something the original sitcom could only occasionally attempt.

Maleah…
The Love Hypothesis takes Ali Hazelwood’s academic romance out of the reader’s imagination and places Olive Smith and Adam Carlsen inside a surprisingly tangible university world.
