The previous episode of Revival ended on a cliffhanger, and the mystery behind Em’s death continues to be a crucial plot point of the show. Although Em was going through a tough time, she was confident that she didn’t kill herself. But the question remained: who murdered her and why? Dana was desperate to find an answer, and she was startled when Kay, Em’s best friend, stated that Em stole drugs the night she was murdered. They’d been to the Check house the last time they were together before Revival Day; the Check family sold country art and drugs all at the same time! Em needed to use the washroom, and when she went upstairs, she grabbed a plastic bag full of pills and made a run for it. Messing with the Checks came at a price, and Kay strongly believed that they followed Em and killed her that night.

If there’s one thing humans are terrible at, it’s empathy — at least until life forces it on them.
Revival Season 1 Episode 3, aptly titled “Reality Check,” pushes the Cypress family (and the entire town of Wausau) into that uncomfortable space where belief systems and moral lines start to buckle under the weight of personal stakes.
Wayne Cypress is on a mission to corral the revived, leaning hard into internment camps as a solution.

The tension is electric — because we know something he doesn’t.
His own daughter Em is one of the people he’s lobbying to lock away. If he knew that? Well, it’s easy to imagine a complete reversal of his crusade. It’s always “them” until it’s yours.
This isn’t just about fear of the unknown. It’s about control. It’s about preserving the illusion of safety.

Sports dramas of any kind demands an added level of physicality from their characters, something that Netflix’s latest Mma combat-based series, The Cage, exemplifies very well with its talented cast, who brought out the best from the narrative through their emphatic performances. Aside from this positive aspect, the series is going to attract a major number of combat sports nerds thanks to the number of cameo appearances by legendary Mma fighters, which almost made me think Dana White was going to pop up on the series at some point. Anyway, the inclusion of real-life stars brings a sense of realism into the narrative, and the fact that their appearances aren’t merely limited to blink-and-miss-it-type roles is an added bonus on top of everything.

He would put his juice boxes outside the window in the snow and later grab the juice when it was cold and drink it. It was so hilarious and cool.

A workplace incident pitches a young man into a battle of conscience with his family and the law in Selman Nacar’s debut
Turkish director Selman Nacar made a strong impression with his debut feature, a tough workplace-negligence drama at last year’s San Sebastian film festival. Its indirect narrative style and sense of insidious bureaucratic evasion put me in mind of the Romanian new wave: particularly the performance of Erdem Senocak as Yasin, the bland company lawyer whose task is to pressurise the families of injured employees into signing away their legal rights.
Mucahit Kocak plays Kadir, a pleasant young man who, with his more business-minded elder brother Halil (Bedir Bedir), has taken over the management of the family’s textile factory, on the retirement of their father Ibrahim (Ünal Silver). The work is hard, and the factory is having difficulty delivering on orders, but Kadir is happy enough,...
