Sofia Vergara's been getting plenty of accolades for her work in the new Netflix miniseries Griselda, based on the turbulent life of Griselda Blanco, one of the most infamous Colombian drug lords back in the 1980s. (Some have described the character as a female version of Tony Soprano.) Vergara, who is also a producer on the series, plays Blanco through multiple periods of her life, and she spoke about how demanding it was to prepare for a role like this/
Griselda is currently streaming on Netflix.

I have no plans to see Oppenheimer. Here's why:
To begin with, the last film directed by Christopher Nolan that I saw was Dunkirk, and I enjoyed that in spite of two important things: the sound design, which was realistically noisy but got in the way of, y'know, intelligible dialogue; and Hans Zimmer's derivative, repetitive score (seriously it was just the chord progression from the "Nimrod" section of Elgar's Enigma Variations, over and over and over again. And both won Oscars! What the actual fuck?)
More to the point, though: this is not exactly an undertold story — quite the opposite, in fact. It has already had (at least) two dramatizations that can be described as essential. Here's some information about one of them.
This was a major departure for Masterpiece Theatre at that time. Sadly, it doesn't seem to be available for streaming anywhere.
The other one can be streamed at the link below, although it may be blocked outside the U.S.
It's a definitive performance of this work, which is by John Adams and Peter Sellars; through July 28th only, it can also be streamed free of charge and, as far as I know, from anywhere in the world, here:
And finally, here are some things that you really ought to know about the subject matter, and which I gather are more-or-less completely ignored in the film:

"Elvis" is just a stunningly beautiful film, there are a lot of interesting details in the frame, everything is stylish, everyone's skin is shiny, the colors are matched, even the mask is beautiful.
The film is really a paradise for connoisseurs of aesthetics and beautiful pictures. But I will say more, the plot is also just top, the film runs for 3 hours, but it is very exciting and interesting. This is one of my favorite movies I watched in 2024.

The movie takes us on an emotional journey through Madoff's rise and fall as he builds his Ponzi scheme empire, luring in unsuspecting investors with promises of high returns. We witness his family's involvement and betrayal as they grapple with the harsh reality of their father's actions.
