All he needs to gain this valuable trove of pelts is a financial backer, whom he finds in privileged Harvard dropout Will (Fred Hechinger).

Dumb Money (PVOD)

The GameStop stock brouhaha of 2021 is the latest entry in the true financial crime/scam/scandal genre.

The fictionalized adaptation centers on a regular guy named Keith Gill (Paul Dano) who starts it all by sinking his life savings into the stock and posting about it on message boards. His stock tip becomes a movement and his posts start blowing up — as does his life and the lives of many others. Billionaires unhappy about losing money fight back, the government gets involved and the market goes haywire.

Foe (PVOD)

The premise of this sci-fi thriller doesn’t just sound like a Black Mirror episode, it’s almost an exact clone of season 6’s “Beyond the Sea.” Any similarities are just a coincidence, of course. Saoirse Ronan and Paul Mescal play married couple Hen and Junior, who live on a Midwestern farm ravaged by climate change. One day, a mysterious stranger (Aaron Pierre) arrives with the news that Junior has been selected for a mission to colonize another planet. During the years he’s gone, the government will replace him with a robotic clone to keep Hen company. She’ll get to keep her husband … sort of.

In his new country, da Vinci joins the French court, where he experiments with flying contraptions, invents machines and studies the human body, all in an effort to understand the meaning of life.
