High School Politics Hit Insane Heights in New Trailer for The Politician

Watch free Movies 2020 Online



Ben Platt plays a teenager obsessed with becoming President of the United States in the riotous first trailer for Ryan Murphys new high school comedy, The Politician, out September 27th on Netflix.

In the new eight-episode series, Platt plays the preppy and wealthy Payton, whos convinced his dreams of occupying the White House will only be realized if he first becomes Student Body President of San Sebastian High. Unfortunately for Payton, the other students (and teachers, and parents) of San Sebastian are just as ruthless and willing to play dirty as he is, even going as far as to concoct a murder plan.

And while this may just be an election for Student Body President, The Politician is also a Ryan Murphy show, and the trailer teases plenty of on-the-nose political satire. She cant vote without a student ID, one high school poll watcher deadpans. Otherwise theyd bus in a bunch of kids from other schools to vote illegally.

The Politician also stars Gwyneth Paltrow, Jessica Lange, Zoey Deutch, Lucy Boynton, Julia Schlaepfer, Laura Dreyfuss, Rahne Jones, Theo Germaine, David Corenswet, Bob Balaban and Benjamin Barrett. Ryan Murphy co-created, co-wrote, co-directed and executive produced the show with Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan; all three previously collaborated on Glee.

A Peasant Farmer Resists Nazi Germany in Terrence Malicks A Hidden Life Trailer

Where to watch films Movies 2019 for free online



An Austrian farmer refuses to fight for the Nazis in World War II in the tense new trailer for Terrence Malicks upcoming film,A Hidden Life, which opens December 13th

A Hidden Life is based on real events and stars August Diehl as Franz Jgersttter, an Austrian peasant farmer and devout Catholic whos unnerved by the rise of the Third Reich and refuses to serve in the army. Whats happened to our country? he wonders in the trailer. Were killing innocent people, raiding other countries, preying on the weak. If our leaders, if theyre evil, what does one do?

The Nazis ultimately charge Jgersttter with treason but faced with the threat of execution, he keeps his resolve through his wife Fani (Valerie Pachner) and their children. The trailer for A Hidden Lifefeatures some of Malicks famously breathtaking cinematography, both in its jarring handheld close-ups of human conflict and in its sweeping wide shots of the Austrian countryside.

In addition to Diehl and Pachner, A Hidden Life also stars the late Michael Nyqvist and Bruno Ganz, both in their final performances. The film premiered in May at the Cannes Film Festival to positive reception.

Where to watch films Movies 2020 for free online



Dave Chappelle roams a desert-like landscape in the new trailer for Sticks & Stones, the comedians fifth Netflix stand-up special that airs on August 26th.

Narrated by Morgan Freeman, the one-minute clip features Chappelle sauntering the salt flat, eventually coming across a white backdrop. He sits on a stool with a microphone as the camera zooms in. How did we get here, I wonder? Freeman asks. I dont mean that metaphorically; Im really asking. How did Dave get here? I mean, what the fuck is this? Ah, what do I know? Im just Morgan Freeman.

The special, detailed as a provocative perspective on the tidal wave of celebrity scandals, the opioid crisis, and more is the comedians fifth standup special in two years. He previously starred in Deep in the Heart of Texas: Dave Chappelle Live at Austin City Limits, The Age of Spin: Dave Chappelle Live at the Hollywood Palladium, Dave Chappelle: Equanimity and Dave Chappelle: The Bird Revelation.

On October 27th, the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts will award Chappelle with the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor; the comedian already has two Grammys and two Emmys under his belt. Earlier this year, Chappelle joined Will Smith for an episode of Will Smiths Bucket List, where he gave the actor advice on how to do stand-up.

The Nightingale Review: Aussie Revenge Tale Pulls No Punches

Watch free Movies 2019 Online



Its instructive to point out that The Nightingale is not for the faint of heart. Theres horrific violence abound; at one point early on, a rapist violates his victim while her baby screams in his ear. But in no way is this powerhouse another treatment of male violence filtered through an exploitaive male gaze. In her second film, after 2014s haunting The Babadook, Australian writer-director Jennifer Kent creates a womans revenge tale fueled by a righteous anger at the evil men do. Theres not a whit of audience coddling. Youve been warned.

Set in the harsh 1825 Tasmanian Outback, the film stars Aisling Franciosi the Italian-Irish actress best known as Game of Thrones Lyanna Stark as Clare, a 21-year-old Irish convict. Shes been sent to this remote penal colony of Van Diemens Land and enslaved by Lieutenant Hawkins (Sam Claflin), a British officer and boot-and-polish sadist. His slow rise in the ranks is a consistent sore point. So he takes out his frustration by brutalizing those in his charge, from underlings to prisoners. That most definitely includes Claire.

Boogeyman Nights: The Story Behind This Year's Horror Hit 'The Babadook'25 Best Modern Exploitation Movies

At first, Hawkins is content to make the young woman his personal songbird, given that Clare sings like a nightingale while she serves him food and drink. And then the screaming starts. Claflin, the blond dreamboat Finnick Odair in The Hunger Games series, plays this colonial monster without dropping his charm and good looks, which makes him doubly scary. Its a bold gamble of a performance that pays off. Hawkins wears a surface sanity in public; he desperately wants that promotion. And its Clares hope that the pressure will persuade him to set her free, along with her husband Aidan (Michael Sheasby), a fellow convict, and their infant daughter.

When her dream of liberation is brutally squashed, Clare vows revenge. Thats when Kent and the splendid cinematographer Radek Ladczuk (shooting in the square-shaped, old-school Academy ratio) build a historical story of vengeance that shakes you to your core. The Nightingale extends from the tale of one woman in pursuit of a male predator to a broad condemnation of a system that exploits women and the indigenous people of Tasmania, all the while detailing how their world becomes one.

Clare chases Hawkins into the wilderness on her husbands unsteady horse, her trauma often reducing her to a fevered dream state that tests her survival at every turn. As a guide, she hires an Aboriginal tracker, Billy (a superb Baykali Ganambarr), who is reluctant to work for this half-crazed, racist woman who is likely to get him killed. Ganambarr, a dancer in an extraordinary acting breakthrough, builds a character whose grudge against the British begins to match Clares own. Watching the mutual hostility between these two antagonists soften into a fragile bond gives the film a fierce hold on viewers, and Kent never loses sight of the psychological wounds that fester underneath Clares odyssey. Its a shame that she diffuses the force of her storytelling with too many false endings. But as a devastating deconstruction of the complex nature of one womans retribution, The Nightingale is peerless.

Best TV to See in September 2019: Country Music Doc, The Deuce, Walton Goggins in The Unicorn

Watch this free Movies 2019



Remember when September was the big month for new TV programming? (Gather round, children, and let Grandpa tell you about the days when there were only three networks!) Yes, the traditional pilot season is once upon us, which means laugh-tracked comedies, curious cop shows and Lost-like mysteries are once again upon us. Also on deck: Ken Burns delves into an august tradition of American music; a documentary looks at an icons impact on sport and culture; and an under-seen triumph returns to HBO with meticulous period recreations intact. Here are the sitcoms, procedurals, and other future Ill-binge-this-once-its-on-a-streaming-service favorites hitting the tube this month.

Brian Cox: The 'Succession' Star on the Art of Playing BastardsNathan Fielder to Write, Direct New HBO Comedy Pilot

American Horror Story: 1984 (FX, Sep. 18th)
Jocks in crop-tops, hair several stories high, New Wave synth music on the soundtrack it must be the Eighties on Ryan Murphys unstoppable horror anthology. He pays homage to cabin-in-the-woods slasher movies with the latest season, with the summer camp setting specifying the pool of references to Sleepaway Camp and its ilk. A cast of unsuspecting, nubile teens, including Murphy regulars Emma Roberts and Billie Lourd (along with Ryan TV newcomers DeRon Horton and Olympic skier-turned-actor Gus Kenworthy), will get hacked to bits by a masked assailant, but this being American Horror Story, there has to be more to it than that. Though taut midriffs and intermittent stabbings is, to be fair, plenty.

Country Music (PBS, Sep. 15th)
Americas preeminent longform-doc historian covered jazz in 2001; now Kens Burns is turning his sights on the other purely American genre of music. Country gets the full Burns approach with a top-to-bottom account of its formation, its social import, and its legacy in the present day. With an avalanche of rare preserved footage, exhaustive research, and color commentary from such luminaries as Garth Brooks, Loretta Lynn, and Willie Nelson, Burns has accomplished another herculean feat of posterity-building. He establishes a public record of all that his chosen topic means to the people at its center joy, heartbreak, hope, and everything in between.

The Deuce, Season 3 (HBO, Sep. 9th)
David Simon and George Pelecanos porn epic jumps ahead into the Eighties for its final season, when videotape revolutionized the industry by slicing production costs. Rising director Candy (Maggie Gyllenhaal) continues to gain in legitimacy, while sleazeball brothers Vincent and Frankie Martino (James Franco and James Franco, respectively) do the opposite as their business enterprises grow shadier and shadier. Porn starlet Lori (Emily Meade) goes mainstream as a video vixen on the hair metal scene, and the cops launch a new plan to clean up Times Square once and for all at the behest of Mayor Ed Koch. Times change, buildings rise and fall, but the one constant throughout everything: Sex sells.

Diego Maradona (HBO, Sep. 24th)
Diego Maradona has a solid claim to the title of historys greatest soccer player. (Fine, fine, football player.) This documentary goes one step further to posit him as one of the most fascinating figures in all of sport, exposing the agony and ecstasy of an unparalleled talent. From his childhood in the slums of Argentina, to his rise to stardom and the frenzied media spectacle surrounding it, to later-in-life scandals involving cocaine and La Cosa Nostra, its another comprehensive portrait from director Asif Kapadia, i.e. the man behind Senna, the jaw-dropping Formula-One-champ profile, and Amy, the Oscar-winning chronicle of Amy Winehouses life and times. In other words, audiences are expecting a gooooooooooal.

Emergence (ABC, Sep. 24th)
An airplane falls out of the sky and crashes on the Peconic Bay in Long Island. Out from the smithereens crawls a girl (Alexa Skye Swinton) with no memory of who she is or where shes come from. Theres a mystery afoot, probably related to the unexplainable electrical flares and odd lights in the nighttime sky, and local police chief Jo Evans (Fargo breakout Allison Tolman) wants to be the one to unravel it. Trouble is, shes taken a shine to the young survivor and offered her a home, tying some emotional knots into her deductive efforts. Uh-oh.

Prodigal Son (Fox, Sep. 23rd)
What if Hannibal Lecter was your dad? Thats the jumping-off point for this new crime procedural, in which ex-FBI profiler Malcolm Bright (Walking Dead alum Tom Payne) returns to the job when a new serial killer appears to be copycatting the murders Malcolms father (Michael Sheen) committed years earlier. Hell have to confront his mental demons and go face-to-face with his long-estranged, homicidal pop-pop if he wants to solve the case before the killer strikes again. But Malcolm cant shake the sneaking suspicion that his father may somehow be orchestrating all this from behind bars, and more troubling still, that he may be one of the pawns.

Room 104, Season 3 (HBO, Sep. 13th)
Sam Richardson, Luke Wilson, Arturo Castro, Paul F. Tompkins, and June Squibb number among the guests checking in at HBOs anything-goes anthology series this year. The show sticks to its one guiding principle all action takes place within a single suite at a singularly strange hotel but that parameter leaves a lot of space for flights of fantasy. This seasons trailer teases a growhouse FDA bust, multiple openings of the third eye, and at least one encounter with a well-renowned monster. Oh, and lots of bloodshed. The drama appears to be drifting towards the realm of horror, a fittingly unlikely pivot for a show thats thrived on its own unpredictability.

Stumptown (ABC, Sep. 25th)
The title refers to the nickname of Portland, Oregon, the city that down-on-her-luck veteran Dex Parios (Cobie Smulders) calls home. Unemployed and deep in debt, she gets the bright idea to scrape together some scratch as a private eye, using her skills learned from the military to pay the bills and support her brother (Cole Sibus) with Down Syndrome. One lowlife at a time, she cleans up the streets and dispenses sardonic one-liners; the project hasnt strayed far from its graphic novel origins. Shes a far cry from HIMYMs Robin Sparkles, in other words.

Sunnyside (NBC, Sep. 26th)
Kal Penn draws on his background as an entertainer, a political operator, and an Indian-American man for this sitcom about the red tape wrapped around the American dream. The shows creator also leads as Garrett Modi, a former New York City councilman booted from office due to drug charges. (To think: Kumar himself, getting high!) He finds his second act in a group of immigrants preparing to take their citizenship exams; they need help getting a leg up on the test, and he needs to do something meaningful. Do you think theyll end up teaching him as much as he teaches them? Have you ever watched a half-hour television comedy before?

The Unicorn (CBS, Sep. 26th)
For the record: Series lead Walton Goggins does not portray the snow-white one-horned horse of legend in this new comedy series. Rather, his character Wade is a comparably rare phenomenon in the adult dating world: handsome, a good father, gainfully employed and, after the tragic death of his wife, single. And this sitcom picks up at the point where the widower decides to get back in the game. Yes, he may have caught the eye of every single mom within a ten-mile radius. No, hes not done processing his own grief or figured out how to introduce a new woman to his youngsters. Who doesnt pine for a weekly dose of Walty G. once more?

The Radical Kindness of Steven Universe

How to watch films Movies 2019 free online



The title character of Steven Universe is an adolescent boy who, over the course of the Cartoon Network series first five seasons, developed the ability to fly, to conjure an impenetrable pink shield out of thin air, to use his saliva to heal injuries short of death (and sometimes beyond), to merge his body with a friends (in an act called fusion) so they can become even stronger as one than they are side-by-side, and more. But his greatest power and the reason the show became so adored that a follow-up film, Steven Universe: The Movie, will air on Labor Day, potentially leading into future seasons is both much simpler and much more remarkable:

Watch Alec Benjamin's Poignant Video for 'Must Have Been the Wind'Hear Skrillex, Boys Noize and Ty Dolla $ign Team Up for 'Midnight Hour'

Steven is kind.

The animated series, created by Adventure Time alum Rebecca Sugar, has a complicated mythology involving the Gems, an alien race of women whose leaders, the four Diamonds, want to reshape the universe into something following their very rigid and orderly caste system. Thousands of years ago, we gradually(*) find out, a Gem known as Rose Quartz (Susan Egan) formed a rebellious group called the Crystal Gems to protect life on Earth from being conquered and eradicated by the Diamonds. By the time the series begins in the present day, Rose has sacrificed herself to give birth to half-human son Steven (Zach Callison), who is raised in part by failed rock-star dad Greg (Tom Scharpling) and in part by the three surviving Crystal Gems: the enigmatically cool Garnet (Estelle), uptight Pearl (Deedee Magno Hall), and immature Amethyst (Michaela Dietz). Steven inherited Roses gem, and her powers, but his age and the human half of his DNA make them slow to emerge. So in the shows earliest adventures, Steven is a glorified mascot to the Crystal Gems, along mainly for moral support and the occasional bit of improvised pubescent boy strategy.

(*) Most episodes are 11 minutes long, and Sugar slow-plays a lot of the backstory and major arcs by focusing the start of the series (and each ensuing season) on relatively light-hearted standalone adventures. Its a seasonal structure that classic genre shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Veronica Mars, and The X-Files used so well back in the day, but thats unfortunately gone out of vogue in favor of pure serialization. (When Veronica came back this summer, it told a single, eight-episode story.) As a kids show with extremely nuanced themes, Steven Universe benefits greatly from how much time it lets you marinate in Stevens world before getting to the big topics. But a newcomer wouldnt be blamed for sampling the first few episodes and dismissing it as something much sillier and more superficial than what follows.

But even after he begins mastering his inherited powers, its clear that Stevens greatest asset to the team and the most appealing part of the whole series is his fundamental decency. Its not just that he prefers nonviolent solutions when Garnet or Amethyst would be content to smash the latest monster in their path. Its that his impulse is almost always to empathize and try to help, and to see the best in everyone he meets whether seemingly villainous Gems like the smug Peridot (Shelby Rabara) or humans like shiftless doughnut-shop worker Lars (Matthew Moy). Steven wants to be friends with everyone, and wants everyone to be friends, and more often than not, he succeeds. (Think Leslie Knope, but huskier and less intense.)

Heroes who are intrinsically good can prove intimidating to storytellers who need to generate conflict. Its why most of the attempts to make a post-Christopher Reeve movie about Superman involved making him angstier, or why, before Chris Evans came along, no one believed audiences would want to watch a hero as cornily forthright as Captain America. But when it works and hoo-boy, does it work on Steven Universe, whether youre a wide-eyed kid or a cynical adult the force of their virtue shines so brightly that it can be hard to imagine wanting anything even slightly less sincere.

Stevens empathy and his knack for accepting people on their own terms proves essential for a show that presents complex ideas in a manner its young audience will appreciate. Just like Buffy once used monsters as metaphors for adolescence, Steven Universe uses the Gems to talk about a variety of LGBTQ issues (among other things). Pearls unrequited love for Rose and her resentment of both Greg and Steven for taking Rose from her is subtly but clearly established, and is something she and the guys have to work through together. Gems are only meant to fuse with others like them (Ruby with Ruby, Pearl with Pearl), which makes the Crystal Gems habit of fusing with one another an abomination to the more traditional, repressed Gems. Yet Steven is thrilled when he sees Pearl and Amethyst fuse into the giant archer Opal. And when he accidentally fuses with best friend (and mutual crush) Connie (Grace Rolek) into the glamorous, intersex Stevonnie, it becomes a story about the importance of consent, with each of them frequently checking in with the other to be sure they want to stay this way a while longer.

Its a wonderful show for many reasons, but the curiosity and warm-heartedness of Steven is the crucial one.

Steven Universe: The Movie plays less as a sequel to the series so far than a Greatest Hits collection almost a primer for newcomers, even if it wont have the same impact on them that 160 bite-sized episodes of TV had on the veterans.

The movie takes place a few years after the Season Five finale, and early on features a long expository musical number about who everyone is and how they all got happy endings when last they appeared. Then along comes a mysterious new Gem who at times resembles Bugs Bunny at his most anarchic, at others the elastically cheerful Steamboat Willie-era Mickey Mouse. Her attacks give the Crystal Gems a kind of factory reboot that erases all the emotional progress they made during the series, forcing Steven to recreate important moments from their lives to bring them back to normal.

The structure of the movie can make it feel like a rehash of things the fans all know so well. (At one point, Steven even loudly complains that he is once again having to deal with the consequences of something his mother did.) Fortunately, its a rehash accompanied by a soundtrack of terrific original songs (co-written by, among others, Chance the Rapper, Aimee Mann, and Ted Leo) performed by Steven and friends. And if Im following in Stevens footsteps and looking for the best in this follow-up to those five wonderful seasons, Id look at the movie as the start of whatever Sugar wants to do with this world next. If its meant as a conclusion, its fun but inessential. But if its the start of a new phase of an older Stevens universe, then it makes sense to travel down memory lane with frequent musical interludes before pushing onto whatever comes after the happy ending.

The first four Steven Universe seasons are streaming on Hulu, while Season Five is available On Demand. Steven Universe: The Movie premieres September 2nd at 6 p.m. on Cartoon Network.

Martin Scorseses The Irishman to Premiere at New York Film Festival

How to watch films Movies 2019 free online



Martin Scorseses highly anticipated new film, The Irishman, will have its world premiere at the 2019 New York Film Festival Friday, September 27th, festival organizers announced on Monday.

The Irishman is so many things: rich, funny, troubling, entertaining and, like all great movies, absolutely singular, said NYFF festival director Kent Jones, who previously worked for Scorseses World Cinema Foundation, in a statement. Its the work of masters, made with a command of the art of cinema that Ive seen very rarely in my lifetime, and it plays out at a level of subtlety and human intimacy that truly stunned me. All I can say is that the minute it was over my immediate reaction was that I wanted to watch it all over again.

Robert De Niro's Company Sues Ex-Employee For Embezzlement, Binge-Watching 'Friends' at WorkBob Dylan: Best Gifts and Collectibles to Buy Right Now

Scorsese said of the announcement, Its an incredible honor that The Irishman has been selected as the Opening Night of the New York Film Festival. I greatly admire the bold and visionary selections that the festival presents to audiences year after year. The festival is critical to bringing awareness to cinema from around the world. I am grateful to have the opportunity to premiere my new picture in New York alongside my wonderful cast and crew.

The mob drama stars Robert De Niro, Al Pacino and Joe Pesci, and is due to be released on Netflix and in select theaters later this year. Based on the nonfiction book I Heard You Paint Houses by Charles Brandt, with an adapted screenplay penned by Steven Zaillian (Schindlers List,Gangs of New York,Moneyball), the film uses state-of-the-art anti-aging digital effects to depict De Niro, Pacino and Pescis characters as up to 30 years younger.

The last time a Scorsese film was screened at the New York Film Festival was in 2011, when a work-in-progress version ofHugo premiered as a special surprise for guests.

Festival, VIP and special event passes for this years NYFF, including the screening ofThe Irishman, are on sale now; other individual screening tickets go on sale to the general public on September 8th. The festival runs September 27th through October 13th.

Brittany Runs a Marathon Review: Star Jillian Bell Goes the Extra Mile

Streaming Full Movies 2019 Online free



A fun ride, spiked with touching gravity, is not a shabby way to end the movie summer. Thanks to Jillian Bell, a comic force of nature with real dramatic chops, thats what you get in Brittany Runs a Marathon. The glorious Bell, who stole every scene she graced in 22 Jump Street, plays the title role, an aggressively upbeat twentysomething who gets a medical wake-up call about weight, high blood pressure, and Adderall addiction her body mass index is in the obese zone. Brittany barely gets by working as an usher at an Off-Broadway theater, and her lack of ambition and direction is eating away at her self-esteem. Theres a downside to being what she calls the fat sidekick to her skinny, narcissistic roommate Gretchen (Alice Lee), and its not pretty.

Watch Alec Benjamin's Poignant Video for 'Must Have Been the Wind'Hear Skrillex, Boys Noize and Ty Dolla $ign Team Up for 'Midnight Hour'

Its running the 26-mile New York City Marathon that represents Brittanys impossible dream, especially since her attempt to merely jog around the block leaves her out of breath and on the verge of collapse. Still, she has a nearly year to prep and a newfound determination. Luckily, debuting director Paul Downs Colaizzo, an acclaimed playwright (Really Really) who based the film on the experiences of his own best friend (also named Brittany), doesnt build his sharply witty script for easy sitcom miracles that tie everything up in a neat Hollywood bow. Its true that Brittany creates a support team in another inexperienced runner, Seth (Micah Stock), and acid-tongued expert Catherine (Michaela Watkins), who puts them both to shame. And she does find love, of sorts, with snarky Jern (Utkarsh Ambudkar, terrific), who shares the house- and dog-sitting job she takes to pay for gym class. You just know their sniping byplay has to lead somewhere; that it doesnt follow the clich handbook is a bonus.

For Brittany and anyone who lives in the real world self-improvement is all baby steps, and the same goes for the movie, which refuses to leave Brittanys demons unexplored. Its the backsliding that gets to the roots of her self-loathing. In one stunner of a scene, Brittany boozes it up on a visit to the home of her supportive sister (Kate Arrington) and brother-in-law (Lil Rey Howery), and insults their overweight guest, a woman who is bearing the brunt of all the hate Brittany actually feels for herself. Bell and Colaizzo do it the hard way, creating a character to root for without glib shortcuts. When you cheer at the end and you will the laughs and the tears feel honest and richly earned. Yes, Brittany Runs a Marathon gets a little earnest at times, stopping just short of self-righteousness. But Bell is always there to pull us back. She is pure gold.

Shia LaBeouf Examines Turbulent Child Star Days in Honey Boy Trailer

Streaming Movies 2020 Full Online



Shia LaBeouf wrestles with past demons, in the script and on the screen, in the new trailer for Honey Boy, the upcoming film based on his own experiences as a young actor.

The clip follows the fictionalized version of LaBeouf, Otis Lort, as he deals with family turmoil and the pressures of fame as both a child (Noah Jupe) and young adult (Lucas Hedges). LaBeouf himself appears as father James Lort, a former rodeo clown and felon who brings his son both inspiration and angst. Youre a fucking star, and I know it, the elder Lort tells Jupes character. Thats why Im here. Im your cheerleader, honey boy.

The preview traces the loose arc of the actors career from his ascent to stardom to eventual stint in rehab. It opens with Hedges on the set of a Hollywood action movie, filming a scene capped with a massive explosion; then in a montage, he swigs some alcohol, gets in a car crash and winds up yelling at the police from the back of a cop car: What am I being arrested for? You think youre hot shit? Cause you dont know how good I am at what I do!

Honey Boy, which premiered at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival and hits theaters November 8th, was directed by Alma Harel (Bombay Beach) from LaBeoufs screenplay. The cast also features singer FKA Twigs in her feature debut.

Eddie Murphy, Taylor Swift, Phoebe Waller-Bridge Announced in Saturday Night Live Season 45 Lineup

UPDATE: Leslie Jones will not return to Saturday Night Live after five seasons on the show. Jones joined the cast in 2014 and quickly became a fan favorite, especially for her appearances on Weekend Update. Its unclear exactly why Jones decided to leave the cast ahead of its 45th season, though a source told The New York Post, Leslie has chosen to depart as she has several upcoming projects in the works and she thought its as the right time to go. Jones is reportedly prepping a new stand-up special, which is expected to hit Netflix next year.

**

Saturday Night Livehas announced its Season 45 lineup, kicking off on September 28th with Woody Harrelson in his fourth appearance as host and Billie Eilish in her first musical guest slot.

The host lineup also includes Fleabag andKilling Eve creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge, slotted in for October 5th, as well asStranger Things actor David Harbour (October 12th) and Kristen Stewart in her second time as host (November 2nd).

But perhaps the most notable announcement for SNL fans is Eddie Murphy, who will be hosting the show on December 21st for the first time since 1984. The former SNL cast member has repeatedly distanced himself from the sketch series where he made his name, appearing very briefly duringSNLs 40th anniversary special but otherwise not participating. (It was later revealed by Norm Macdonald, in 100-tweet-long Twitter monologue, that Murphy was originally slated to give a Bill Cosby impression but turned it down.)

Other musical guests this season include Taylor Swift, joining Waller-Bridge on October 5th, and Camila Cabello on October 12th. The musical guests for the November 2nd and December 21st shows have yet to be announced.

Them That Follow Examines the Poison of Fanatacism and Poverty in Appalachia

Stream Movies 2019 Online free



Fresh from her Oscar win for The Favourite, the indisputably great Olivia Colman shows up in Them That Follow as a snake-handling Pentecostal congregationalist in the Appalachian mountains who finds her faith sorely tested. You might want to read that sentence twice since this movie does not follow any traditional paths. But the faith it examines, in practice for more than 100 years, is considered a religious freedom by those even in areas that seek to outlaw it. Writer-directors Britt Poulton and Dan Madison Savage do not come from a Pentecostal church background, so in making their feature debut, they were determined to show respect to what exists off-the-grid and outside conventional morality. A wise choice, especially when youre entering a world that could easily be misunderstood.

The World and 'Hollywood' According to Quentin Tarantino'The Mountain' Review: Mental Health Will Drive You Mad

Them That Follow takes its good, sweet time getting to the point, which may try the patience of viewers. Its the actors who put flesh on the bare bones of the story. Colman plays Hope Sister Slaughter to the community who claims she has only one vice: smoking. Having experienced the big, bad world outside before settling down with her husband, Zeke (comedian Jim Gaffigan, scoring solid dramatic points), Hope is ready to show Zeke the required slavish devotion. Its their son, Augie (Thomas Mann), who questions the precepts of their faith. Their pastor, Lemuel (Walton Goggins, doing that popping thing he does with his eyes), preaches the gospel according to Mark 16:18 that requires each parishioner at service to test Gods love with a venomous viper. If the rattlesnake bites and kills you (it can take up to 48 tortuous hours for the venom to finish the job), it is Gods will. If you survive the ordeal, the Lord has shown mercy.

Augie resists this dogma and risks expulsion from the community by carrying on secretly with Mara (a heartfelt and touching Alice Englert), the pastors daughter. Mara has already been promised in marriage by her father to local boy Garret (Lewis Pullman), who seems more attracted to her virgin purity than anything else about her. If Mara veers from the sects strict patriarchal rules, she will have to show her submission through such tasks as washing Garrets feet.

Credit Poulton and Savage for detailing life in this Pentecostal hamlet without condescension or ridicule. Nonetheless, its hard to watch Mara and her friend, Dilly (Booksmarts stellar Kaitlyn Dever), being forced to detour from a path that would allow them to think for themselves. The need for each individual to carve out a space for independent contemplation is the storys core dynamic. And when the script gives the actors a chance to play these home truths, the film comes meaningfully if fitfully to life. Sadly, Poulton and Savage have a tendency to dawdle without using the time to build meaningful characterization. And the swerve into bizarre melodrama in the final third knocks the film permanently off course, reducing a potentially rich examination of religious extremism into a missed opportunity.

On Becoming a God in Central Florida: Kirsten Dunst Is Mad as Hell in New Comedy

Watch this free Movies 2019



You have a fearsome energy, Krystal Stubbs is told midway through On Becoming a God in Central Florida, Showtimes new comedy about American dreams and delusions. Its meant as shameless flattery, but its also an accurate description of both Krystal and the superb performance that Kirsten Dunst provides in the role by far the greatest delight in an otherwise uneven and sluggishly-paced series.

When we meet Krystal, she is a harried former beauty queen juggling her marriage to insurance salesman Travis (a mulleted Alexander Skarsgard), care of their baby daughter Destinee, and a job at the off-brand local water park. Its not an easy life, nor a glamorous one (shes introduced wearing orthodontic braces and tacky clothes). But shes far more content with it than Travis, who has fallen under the spell of an Amway-like pyramid scheme called FAM, and is devoting most of his waking hours, and even the family savings, to a quest to obtain the luxurious life he believes hes owed. And when Travis gets in too deep, its up to Krystal to save herself and the family, at any cost.

Earlier in her career, Dunst would surely have played one of the goggle-eyed FAM zombies, like Travis creepy young mentor Cody (Thodore Pellerin), who always seems to be lurking about with a cookie cake or some vapid motivational catchphrases. But On Becoming a God, created by Matt Lutsky and Robert Funke, turns Dunsts innate sunniness on its head. Yes, Krystal knows how to flash a pageant smile when its called for, but shes also far from the sucker that Travis, Cody, and everyone else takes her for.

An exhausted Travis argues that its a great thing for the marriage that his FAM work makes him too tired for sex, lamely insisting, You should be begging me not to get hard! Krystal coldly dismembers him with three words: I. Dont. Beg. And whenever Cody turns up, naively convinced that this will be the day that the obvious genius of FAM and its founder Obie Garbeau (Ted Levine) will become clear to Krystal, she fires a withering gaze at him that would be licensed as a deadly weapon in several states. She does not have time for any of his bullshit, but circumstances force her to grapple with it, anyway.

Its one of the best performances Dunsts ever given, verbally, physically, and emotionally. Krystals personality is all sharp edges, in contrast to the post-pregnancy voluptuousness that she uses as a weapon of last resort. And though she makes plenty of mistakes in trying to extricate herself from FAMs clutches get ready for another prestige cable show where each solution creates three new problems, and an inconvenient corpse or two may have to be creatively disposed of theres a fierce intelligence thats palpable to the audience, even when Krystals playing dumb for the many men (and a few women) who have unfair control of her future.

At first, On Becoming a God is strange and funny enough to merit a leading turn as good as Dunsts. The world of FAM is so bizarre when viewed from any rational perspective, and supporting players like Pellerin and Levine (sporting a mustache so impressively thick and unruly, Sam Elliott might feel insecure looking at it) add the necessary color and energy required to make it plausible that someone like Travis, or like Krystals friend Ernie (a terrific Mel Rodriguez), could fall so easily under its spell. There are acts of shocking violence against both man and beast, and surreal tableaux that could occur only in an adventure in the titular state of the union. And the show makes some strong satirical points early on about the lies we are conditioned to tell ourselves in order to pursue the fortunes to which we are allegedly entitled.

But the creative team soon runs out of new things to say about FAM, and about most of these characters. Theres some entertaining interplay between Krystal and Cody, and the way she learns to use all of her powers against him. But what you see in the first few episodes is mostly what you get throughout the season. And suddenly it is alot of time being spent in the company of these bumbling zealots and their ridiculous jargon. There are enough ideas and jokes to fill the two-hour screenplay that it feels like On Becoming must have begun life as. But the season runs seven and a half hours in total (each episode hovers close to 45 minutes), and eventually becomes as exhausting to sit through as Krystal finds Cody. Her contempt for the whole enterprise, and the verve of Dunsts performance, cut through some of this unpleasant cults inanity, just not enough. Theres a scene of black-comic gore in the premiere thats hilarious for its surprise; by the time the finale strikes a similar note, the show feels too labored for anything to be funny.

Its a great title, though, and one hell of a star turn from Dunst an inversion of the kinds of enthusiastic women shes played in everything from Bring It On to Fargo, but also a natural progression. You put up with enough nonsense in this life, and eventually you may become just as ruthless as Krystal Stubbs surprises everyone by being.

On Becoming a God in Central Florida debuts August 25th. Ive seen all 10 episodes.

The I-Land Trailer Spins Psychological Thriller as Fyre Festival Spoof

Streaming Movies 2020 Full Online



The disastrous Fyre Festival inspires a fictional new spin in the trailer for The I-Land, a new series coming to Netflix on September 12th.

Created by Neil LaBute (Billions,In the Company of Men, 2006s The Wicker Man) and starring Kate Bosworth, Alex Pettyfer and Natalie Martinez, the show follows 10 people who mysteriously wake up on an uncharted island with no memory of how they got there, and their subsequent struggle to escape. The trailer opens with a glossy promotional clip inspired by the infamous Fyre Festival announcement video, before dissolving into a series of glitches and a montage of psychological turmoil.

Bosworth describedThe I-Land to ET Canada as sort of adventure sci-fi, but very grounded in character, which sounds a lot likeLost combined with that island sequence fromThe Incredibles. The trailer shows two shadowy figures following the 10 marooned islanders on surveillance channels, which suggests that their entrapment on the island was by design.

Netflix premiered its Fyre Festival documentary, Fyre: The Greatest Party That Never Happened, in January, around the same time that competing streaming service Hulu debuted its own documentary,Fyre Fraud. The two films earned a combined five nominations at the 2019 Emmys.

Best Movies and TV to Stream in September: The Politician, Transparent Musicale Finale, and Wu-Tang

How to watch films Movies 2019 free online



On Netflix, Zach Galifianakis extends a Funny or Die sensation to feature length; Ryan Murphy makes a splash with a cutthroat political series; Sacha Baron Cohen takes leave of TV for a more serious turn; and Booksmart breakout Kaitlyn Dever gets on the true crime bandwagon alongside Toni Collette and Merritt Wever. Meanwhile, Hulu mines drama from the rise of the Wu-Tang Clan and confronts the bitter truth of the Harvey Weinstein takedown, while Amazon has the top-secret new project from BoJack Horsemans creative team. Heres what youll be streaming in September.

Between Two Ferns: The Movie (Netflix, Sep. 20th)
How does one sculpt three-minute morsels of online cringe comedy in which Zach Galifianakis awkwardly grills celebrities while flanked by decorative flora into a feature film? Take the shoestring-budgeted public access show on the road, for starters. Things get meta as Galifianakis, playing the same off-kilter version of himself as in the webseries, convinces none other than Will Ferrell to give him a network talk show. But first, hell have to trek across America tracking down interview subjects word is that Peter Dinklage, Keanu Reeves, and David Letterman made the cut to seal the deal. Q&A sessions have never been so exquisitely uncomfortable.

Creepshow (Shudder, Sep. 26th)
In 1982, Stephen King joined forces with George Romero for an antic anthology film collecting five short tales of the macabre, then again in 1987 for a sequel with three more. This spinoff series adds another twelve to the total, albeit without the participation of the original creators. But a King yarn provides a basis for a couple segments, and theyve lined up a murderers row of writers to adapt horror classics and pen their own originals. Gas-mask-clad Nazi commandants, shambling reanimated corpses, and humanoid-animal hybrid monstrosities populate the episodes, and the cast list is no less eclectic, featuring Giancarlo Esposito alongside Big Boi and Kid Cudi. Take your pick of terrors.

The Politician (Netflix, Sep. 27th)
Netflix bought five years of Ryan Murphy for a cool three hundred million, and his big entre to streaming is this multi-season saga of political shenanigans, high-school-style. Meet Payton Hobart (Tony winner Ben Platt) as he rises through the ranks of American democracy. Bear witness to the birth of his carnivorous ambition with his high school election, and watch how he learns how to manipulate the public with help from Zoey Deutch plays his sickly, sympathy-point-gaining running mate quell a scandal and other skills that will help win him votes by any means necessary. Gwyneth Paltrow, Jessica Lange and Bob Balaban (along with a few late-act surprises) are also onboard. Its a classically Murphian combination of camp wit and glorious stunt casting.

The Spy (Netflix, Sep. 6th)
When Sacha Baron Cohens face appears onscreen, its generally a sign that theres a ruse afoot and someones not in on it. Not so with this rare straight-faced dramatic turn for the actor, which casts him as espionage professional Eli Cohen, the most respected agent in the history of the Israeli intelligence unit. The limited series concentrates on his work in Damascus during the Sixties, in which Cohen wormed his way into Syrias highest echelons of power and uncovered anti-Israel operations before they could be sprung. The former Borat has always been a magnet for scandal, but with the new shows sensitive subject matter and U.S.-Israel relations growing more complicated by the day, he could find himself at the center of an entirely different sort of controversy.

Tall Girl (Netflix, Sep. 13th)
For a teenage girl, it aint easy being six-foot-one. Thats the quandary facing Jodi Kreyman (played by real-life tall girl Ava Michelle), a high schooler looking for love and looming over the rest of her grade. This romcom explores the highs and lows mostly the highs of her search for a boyfriend wholl love every inch of her as is, unencumbered by male insecurity about being the shorter half of the couple. Most of the boys her age arent nearly that mature, however, leaving Jodi unlucky in love and more self-conscious than the already-steep adolescent baseline. If one more jokester asks her how the weather is up there, itll be one too many.

Transparent Musicale Finale (Amazon, Sep. 27th)
The so-called final season of Amazons Emmy magnet is really a musical send-off at feature length, with the show dipping into fantasy to capture the Pfefferman family grief process. Everyones convened to mourn the death of their transgender moppa/family figurehead Maura; the widow (Judith Light) and the adult Pfefferman children (Jay Duplass, Amy Landecker, and Gaby Hoffmann) are left in a toe-tapping existential spiral. They sing their way through complicated meditations on gender and Judaism in a production equal parts Broadway and Advanced Feminist Theory 301. It ends not with a bang, but a Broadway-style extravaganza.

Unbelievable (Netflix, Sept. 13th)
Theres a serial rapist on the loose, but the cops remain skeptical after the shaken survivors of his brutal attacks have trouble keeping the details of their stories straight. Two female detectives (Toni Collette and Merritt Wever) recognize a serious crime when they see one, however, and take the investigation into their own hands. Working closely and empathetically with the assaulted women (Kaitlyn Dever and Danielle Macdonald), they give a voice to the voiceless and pursue justice on behalf of women everywhere. Adapted from a ProPublica article and directed by the quietly brilliant Lisa Cholodenko, its a morbidly engrossing true crime potboiler with a strong pedigree.

Undone (Amazon, Sep. 13th)
BoJack Horseman co-creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg and his regular producer Kate Purdy continue to expand the boundaries of animation in their newest project. Alita: Battle Angel breakout Rosa Salazar assumes cartoon form as Alma, a woman who emerges from a gnarly car accident banged up but imbued with newfound powers to bend the fabric of reality. With guidance from her father (Bob Odenkirk), she tests the limits of her fantastical abilities and launches herself into realms of pure abstraction beyond the capabilities of live-action entertainment. BoJack often pushed the formal envelope, and in the teams tinkering with rotoscoping techniques, that experimental spirit has been freely unleashed.

Untouchable (Hulu, Sep. 2nd)
Of all the powerful predators felled by the revelations of the Me Too movement, none went down harder than Harvey Weinstein. The Oscar-hoarding producer was once feared as too influential to challenge, but the honesty and bravery of a shockingly large contingent of accusers proved that a supposedly invincible man could still be dethroned. This documentary goes face to face with the women responsible for exposing the brutal truth Paz de la Huerta, Rosanna Arquette, Zelda Perkins and others and devotes the lions share of its run time to harrowing interviews that allow them to confront the memory of their trauma in a safe space. This film helps put it all on record.

Wu-Tang: An American Saga (Hulu, Sep. 4th)
Self-mythologizing has always been a big part of the Wu-Tang Clans insular world and this series dramatizing their rise-to-fame years aims to take their legend one level deeper. The Nineties have just hit New York, and while crack creeps into the streets, a group of young visionaries subsisting on a steady diet of kung-fu flicks and killer weed chart a path out of poverty. The RZA, the GZA, OlDirty Bastard, Raekwon, Method Man, Ghostface Killah, and Inspectah Deck come together to turn their virtuosic skills for rapping and beat-making into a legitimate living, but in the land of Shaolin, the path to stardom can be treacherous. Ashton Sanders, Shameik Moore, and Siddiq Saunderson all star in a genuine hip-hop superhero origin story.
