Top 6 Netflix Originals September 2020:
Young Wallander — September 3rd
I haven’t watched the BBC series Wallander (starring Kenneth Branaugh) but this prequel series, Young Wallander, looks like a very good police drama and makes me think I should probably watch the original.
The prequel series stars Adam Pålsson as the younger version of Wallander and, like the BBC drama, is based on the Swedish detective novels by Henning Mankell.
I’m not sure if I should wait on this and read the novels first, or watch the BBC version first, or—since it’s a prequel—if I should dive right in. What say you, dear readers?
Let me know on Twitter or Facebook if you’ve read the books or seen the BBC show what you think.
I’m Thinking of Ending Things — September 4th
I didn’t have I’m Thinking Of Ending Things on my radar at all until I learned that Charlie Kaufman was the writer and director. Kaufman has written some excellent films in the past, including Being John Malkovich and The Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, one of Jim Carey’s best films.
Even then, I didn’t check out a trailer until recently and hooooooboy am I glad I did. The thumbnail for the trailer makes it look like a basic young adult romance or character drama but the trailer itself is freaky as hell. And by freaky I mean just the trailer makes me feel all creeped out—I have high hopes for the actual movie.
Kaufman’s movies are often existential musings but this time around we have a healthy dose of dread on top.
The Devil All The Time — September 16th
The Devil All The Time must have one of the most star-studded casts we’ve ever seen in a Netflix movie. Based on the novel by Donald Ray Pollock, the film takes place during the intervening years between WWII and the Vietnam War. It’s set in rural Ohio and centers around Arvin Russell (Tom Holland) “as he fights the evil forces that threaten him and his family.”
The movie also stars Robert Pattinson as “an unholy preacher”, a “twisted couple” of serial killers played by Jason Clarke and Riley Keough and a “crooked sheriff” played by Sebastian Stan. The movie, directed by Antonio Campos, looks pretty creepy and intense, a rural Gothic horror/historical drama that definitely looks like something I’ll be watching in September.
Ratched — September 18th
Ratched is the origin story of Nurse Ratched, the most infamous of evil nurses (though my favorite in that category is Kathy Bates’s Annie Wilkes from Misery). It’s a new show from Ryan Murphy who just came out with Season 2 of his political drama The Politician and the ill-received Hollywood. Murphy, it seems, is on a content-producing roll.
Perhaps more pertinent to Ratched is Murphy’s previous TV show, American Horror Story. After all, Ratched definitely looks a lot like a season of that, only set in a hospital in the 50s’. Nurse Ratched, of course, is the villain of One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest, the novel by Ken Kesey which was later adapted into a film starring Jack Nicholson. Both novel and film are worth your time and both would likely be useful—though not necessary—to enjoy this Netflix show.
Nurse Ratched is one of the most frustrating villains ever, up there with William Hamleigh and Dolores Umbridge.
Enola Holmes — September 23rd
Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown stars as the titular character in Enola Holmes, a movie based on the novel of the same name by Nancy Springer. Enola is the younger sister of Sherlock Holmes (played by Henry Cavill) and a detective in her own right. The movie also stars Helena Bonham Carter as Eudoria Holmes, rounding out a family of very oddly named siblings (Mycroft Holmes is the eldest of the bunch).
Four interesting things about this movie:
It was supposed to be a theatrical release via Warner Bros. Netflix bought it after the COVID-19 pandemic shut down all the theaters. Expect a pretty big production here.
The estate of Arthur Conan Doyle is suing Netflix over the movie as it depicts Sherlock Holmes with emotions and only the stories published between 1923 and 1927 include Sherlock with emotions, and the estate still holds copyright on those stories. This seems like a stretch to me—after all, the movie versions of Sherlock Holmes played by Robert Downey Jr. feature a Sherlock with emotions. Besides, the very notion of “with emotions” strikes me as impossibly flimsy from a legal standpoint.
