Anne with an E Season 2: Netflix’s Whimsical Gem Has Modern Relevance

Though I’ve finished all 10 episodes of Season 2, I’ll keep thingsspoiler-freefor those who haven’t yet started (or finished) the journey! As a diehardAnne of Green Gablesfan, I wasn’t totally convinced by the first season of Netflix’s adaptation,Anne with an E, from creatorMoira Walley-Beckett.

Best Coen Brothers Characters Including The Dude and More

Joel and Ethan Coenare my favorite filmmakers, and part of the reason why is how they come up with such stark, striking characters who hit to the heart of their films’ themes while never standing in as simple symbols or archetypes. These are characters who manage to break out even when they’re part of a milieu that’s as immaculately crafted as a Coen Brothers’ movie (and that’s saying something since the Coens tend to work almost exclusively with the likes of cinematographerRoger Deakinsand composerCarter Burwell)....
