  The Apartment 1960

  ★★★★½ Watched 28 Nov 2024

  I used to live like Robinson Crusoe, I mean shipwrecked among eight million people. And then one day I saw a footprint in the sand, and there you were.

  Shut up and deal.

  Maniac 2018

  ★★★★★ Watched 24 Feb 2024

  I would imagine it was really hard for Jonah Hill to not smile even once for 9⅔ episodes.

  All in all, this mini-series is a fascinating incursion into mental illness and the human subconscious. I was hooked from the first season. It starts getting a bit boring by the 7th or 8th episode, but it picks up just well enough before it ends. And it ends perfectly.
