Screen Crusades: Weekly Streaming Guide 11.11.22

- By Nicolás Delgadillo

An explosion of various new originals and returning series are available to stream this week, from sci-fi thrills to moving documentaries

NOW STREAMING:

‘Don’t Worry Darling’ (HBO Max)

Alice (Florence Pugh) and Jack are lucky to be living in the idealized community of Victory, the experimental company town housing the men who work for the top-secret Victory Project and their families. The 1950’s societal optimism espoused by their CEO, Frank (Chris Pine) – equal parts corporate visionary and motivational life coach – anchors every aspect of daily life in the tight-knit desert utopia. Life is perfect, with every resident’s needs met by the company. All they ask in return is discretion and unquestioning commitment to the Victory cause. But when cracks in her idyllic life begin to appear, exposing flashes of something much more sinister lurking beneath the attractive façade, Alice can’t help questioning exactly what they’re doing in Victory, and why. Just how much is Alice willing to lose to expose what’s really going on in this paradise?

‘The English’ (Amazon Prime Video)

An epic chase Western, The English takes the core themes of identity and revenge to tell a uniquely compelling parable on race, power, and love.

Both of them have a clear sense of their destiny, but neither is aware that it is rooted in a shared past. They must face increasingly terrifying obstacles that will test them to their limits, physically and psychologically. But as each obstacle is overcome, it draws them closer to their ultimate destination—the new town of Hoxem, Wyoming.
