A Streaming Full Shows That Movies

I was watching Amazon's action TV show Reacher when I realized something. The newly streaming eight-episode series is about a tough guy rolling into a small town and opening a can of whup-ass on the local bad guys. This, I thought, is The A-Team. To be precise, it's a single episode of The A-Team. Season 1 of Reacher covers only one novel from the series of books on which it's based, and season 2 just confirmed by Amazon will presumably do the same. But in the 1980s, TV heroes walked into a whole new adventure every week. In other words, what takes Jack Reacher an entire season of hour-long episodes, the A-Team used to do in an hour (minus ad breaks).

Entertain your brain with the coolest news from streaming

That same day, my wife and I watched the first episode of Inventing Anna, a Netflix series dramatizing the true story of infamous scammer Anna Sorokin. It looked arch and irreverent, so we decided to keep watching. But first and I know you do this too we checked how long it was.

Here I will inform you of the films that have just been released and can be watched in streaming for free. Please choose the film you like below:

>>> Be My Voice

>>> Daniel Pennac: Ho visto Maradona!

>>> La macchina delle immagini di Alfredo C

>>> The Alpinist - Uno Spirito Libero

Films released for Italy complete with Italian language or audio, especially for you.

Nine episodes? Sorry, but that's way too much. No shade to either of these shows, but it feels like too many current TV shows are spun out of not enough story. Seriously, not every story needs eight or nine or 10 episodes. Television creators repeatedly tell us the beauty of our prestige TV era is the open-endedness. A television series gives space and time to explore the depth and breadth of a story, developing character arcs over years and unfolding events without the time constraints of a movie. That is true, and wonderful. We've enjoyed many incredible TV shows that prove this point brilliantly, from Mad Men to Ozark, The Sopranos to Game of Thrones, Justified to WandaVision. There's now, however, an overwhelming tsunami of new TV releases, every week, across all the many streaming services currently jockeying for your attention. But watching shows like Reacher and The Book of Boba Fett, to name a few, you start to wonder why they needed so many episodes or even if they needed to be a TV show at all. You can (and should) quit any show you're not enjoying. But then there are shows you're enjoying just fine, only they've outstayed their welcome. I liked Reacher, but the only character arc in the first season is the succession of characters who arc through the air when Jack Reacher punches them clean out of their socks. This is not a show that needs to let its subplots breathe, y'know?

I don't mean to bag on Reacher, so I'll move smoothly onto bagging on The Book of Boba Fett. I contend [The Mandalorian] should have been about Boba Fett in the first place. But [Disney] found itself stuck with two masked bounty hunters, and that's one too many. Episodes of The Mandalorian were brisk, bite-size delights, but the first season of The Book of Boba Fett proved a ponderous and frankly superfluous eight episodes of filler. I loved Temuera Morrison's growling performance and the colorful sci-fi action, but it could easily have been compressed into The Mandalorian. Meanwhile, since I started writing this piece, news broke that Fox is adapting 2012 cop film [End of Watch into a TV series]. I like End of Watch. It's a good movie. It absolutely, 100% does not need to be a TV series. What made End of Watch exciting was a nifty found footage twist on the familiar LAPD action, anchored by crackling performances from Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Peña. In the intervening years, [anger at police brutality has grown], and bodycam footage has played a crucial part in revealing heinous acts by officers. So an updated End of Watch could say something insightful about the police (and maybe even the way we depict law enforcement on TV). But can you sit through an entire TV series of jittery found footage, or does that trick work best in a one-shot movie? Because without that signature gimmick, End of Watch is just another cop drama.

The Progressive era C. B. J. Snyder for Schools

A biography of school architect C. B. J. Snyder, opens a view onto a lost and glorious world of public education in New York City. Early 20th-century Progressives believed that mass public education could combine democracy and excellence. Their hopes shaped the 408 new schools and additions that Snyder designed during his 1891 to 1922 tenure as New York’s superintendent of school buildings. To a degree, Progressives’ hopes were fulfilled. Some Snyder schools, such as Erasmus Hall and Morris High, would produce long lists of notable alumni despite being neighborhood, not exam schools. Snyder biographer Jean Arrington invites us to consider the contribution that design makes to excellence in education. Three factors accounted for the extravagant scale of Snyder’s school building program. The first two were the revenues pouring into the city treasury and the pressures of surging enrollment. In the current era, New York’s traditional district schools have been losi...

It may be tainted, but don’t underestimate the power of brand love

The concept of ‘brand love’ was overused and went out of fashion, it remains an insightful way to consider consumers’ attitudes towards brands. You do realise that this is fantastically untrendy research? I explained to the team from Savanta, when they approached me to give the launch speech for their 2022 Most Loved Brand Award. To top things off, I added, you’ve only gone and split out your findings by segments of the market too. Which is also fantastically uncool. It’s true, is it not? The merest mention of ‘brand love’ elicits a collective groan from the gaggle of opinion leaders that monitor every discussion about marketing. And slicing anything these days by segment opens up the obligatory critique about the pointlessness of segmentation and the reinstalled dominance of mass marketing. It’s a big week for returning shows across the streaming platforms. We have a Season 2, a Season 4, and a Season 9 revving up for release in the coming days, ranging from an A-list workplace co...
