The Green Mile, a supernatural prison drama from 1999, is finding new life on the free streaming service Tubi. The Stephen King adaptation stars Tom Hanks in one of his genuinely underrated performances. The film currently sits at the third spot on Tubi's Top 10 list of the service's most-watched films.

Written and directed by Frank Darabont, The Green Mile follows a group of prison guards working at the Cold Mountain Penitentiary death row, or as everyone calls it, "The Green Mile." Led by Officer Paul Edgecomb (Hanks), the group receives John Coffey (Michael Clarke Duncan), a new inmate who has been sentenced to death for a horrible crime. Coffey doesn't behave like a murderer and claims that he's innocent. Edgecomb eventually realizes that the convict even possesses an extraordinary power to heal people. But we'll leave it at that for those who still haven't seen this classic, as we'd rather not spoil it for you.

When curious viewers hit play on the first episode of Severance back in 2022, they could be forgiven for being a bit surprised by the director credit. Ben Stiller, like the guy from There's Something About Mary, Tropic Thunder, Zoolander? That Ben Stiller? It turns out that yes, the same guy who starred in some of the silliest and most memorable comedies of the '90s and 2000s was also one of the forces behind this much more sober sci-fi series.

It might have seemed like an unusual fit, at least for viewers who hadn't seen Stiller's previous directing project. That would be Escape at Dannemora, the 2018 Showtime limited series that dramatized the true story of two inmates who managed to escape the Clinton Correctional facility in Upstate New York in 2015. It marked Stiller's first time directing a limited series, and his most overtly dramatic project to date. It also might...

Who is in the cast of The Last Thing He Told Me...

Throughout 2024, filmmakers have released multiple movies with runtimes between two and four hours, but some of the longest films don’t warrant the audience’s extra time and attention. After the strikes of 2023, viewers went into last year with extra excitement. Some of the highest-grossing films of 2024 included Wicked, Marvel’s Wolverine & Deadpool, and Inside Out 2. In addition to offering many great original films, the year brought about many movies with runtimes above 2 hours.

Long movies are nothing new in Hollywood, but they’re historically difficult to market. This makes it impressive that nine of the ten longest films of the year released in theaters, rather than going directly to streaming. Despite this, some of the longest movies of 2024 received great fanfare and performed well at the box office. Still, a few filmmakers pushed their luck too far in 2024 by making movies that couldn’t justify their runtimes.

Stephen King is one of the best storytellers of the 20th and 21st centuries, which makes it intriguing to see which movies resonate with him. Many of Stephen King's best books, including The Shining and It, have been adapted as movies, and some have even been adapted more than once. He is known for his horror stories, but he is also the author of the novella that was adapted into the hopeful and inspiring movie The Shawshank Redemption, along with writing the novella that is the source material for the upcoming and heartfelt Stephen King movie The Life of Chuck.

King's taste in movies is as varied as the wide range of stories that he has written over the years. As seen in the best Stephen King book endings, the prolific author knows how to tell and complete a good story, an art form that he recognizes and appreciates in the movies he watches.

15 years on, 2009 looks to be one of the best years for cinema in the 21st century. Several iconic directors produced some of their best work in 2009, including Kathryn Bigelow, Wes Anderson and Quentin Tarantino. The year also delivered some surprise hits, like Neil Blomkamp's District 9, which came out of nowhere to shake up the sci-fi genre and establish the director as a name worth keeping an eye on.

At the box office, the big story of 2009 was the record-breaking success of Avatar, which is something that continues to shape the movie industry. Other big financial winners were Pixar's Up, which is yet another animated classic from the studio, and The Hangover, which is the kind of comedy that probably wouldn't be as successful in today's industry. 2009's best movies encompass dramas, sci-fi, horror and more.

It is not uncommon for TV stars to direct episodes of the series on which they appear. Alan Alda, Mike Farrell, Harry Morgan and David Ogden Stiers all directed more than one episode of "M*A*S*H;" Peter Bonerz became a prolific director of television shows and films after directing 29 episodes of "The Bob Newhart Show;" and Penny Marshall might never have brought us such big screen classics as "Big" and "A League of Their Own" had she not started out directing on "Laverne & Shirley."

For the directing curious, the set of a long-running television show is a great place to cut one's teeth, so it's no surprise that two members of the Jeffersonian Institute Medico-Legal Lab found their way behind the camera during the 12-season run of "Bones." The most frequent guest in video village was David Boreanaz, who played the hard-charging FBI Agent Seeley Booth. He...

The nepo baby discourse as it pertains to the arts is typically a grievance-driven undertaking that allows low- to no-talent individuals the opportunity to blame someone other than themselves for their lack of success.

While Ben Stiller certainly had a leg up thanks to his showbiz parents Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara, he very quickly proved to be a top-notch satirist via his short films for "Saturday Night Live" and as the producer of the brilliant yet short-lived "The Ben Stiller Show".

Showtime's Escape at Dannemora utilizes an exceptional cast to tell its true-crime story. The 2018 limited series is based on the 2015 Clinton Correctional Facility escape, which saw two men, Richard Matt and David Sweat, successfully break out thanks to the help of their shared prison-employee girlfriend, Joyce "Tilly" Mitchell. Showtime needed actors like Benicio del Toro, Patricia Arquette, Paul Dano, Bonnie Hunt, and more to bring these and other real-world characters to life.

Escape at Dannemora originally premiered on Showtime in 2018, but it has since come to Netflix, claiming a spot on the Top 10 In October 2024. The series, which was created by Brett Johnson and Michael Tolkin, was directed by actor Ben Stiller and explores the true events leading up to, during, and after the infamous 2015 prison break. Of course, any "based on reality" TV series requires some creative liberties, but with such an exceptional cast in Escape at Dannemora, it's...

If you think "there's nothing to watch on Netflix," then you're just plain incorrect. Over the past year, the streaming service has been delivering not only dozens upon dozens of excellent original series, but Netflix has also been hand-picking a vast variety of small-screen favorites from past and present for our viewing pleasure. And the binge-watching Gods continue to give the goods.

The latest acquired series to make its drop on Netflix is the Emmy Award-nominated crime drama limited series Escape at Dannemora, which made its premiere on Showtime back in November 2018.

St Elsewhere's Dr. Mark Craig mentions working with Mash's Bj Hunnicutt in Korea, linking the two shows. St Elsewhere shares a universe with Mash and many other series, including Homicide: Life on the Streets and Oz. The controversial ending of St Elsewhere suggests the show (and Mash) are all an elaborate fantasy.

Classic sitcom Mash may very well share a universe with another hit medical drama. Mash's season 1 ratings were so poor it was almost canceled, and it was only saved after it rebounded during re-runs. Ultimately, Mash ran for 11 seasons and left a major impact on television as a medium. As the years wore on, it became a hybrid of comedy and drama, mixing quips and clever wordplay with genuinely emotional scenes. It speaks to how large a cultural shadow it left that no reboot attempts have been made since it ended in 1983.

In the decades since,...

This article contains spoilers for "12 Monkeys."

Terry Gilliam's 1995 time-travel freakout "12 Monkeys" begins in the not-so-distant future of 2035, when Earth is recovering from a worldwide plague that wiped out most of humanity. The survivors have moved underground and are kept in cages, overseen by a tyrannical cadre of cruel, tribunal-like scientists. These scientists also have access to a clunky, not-very-accurate time machine that they use to shunt hapless draftees into the past, forcing them to investigate the origins of the virus. The film's protagonist, James Cole (Bruce Willis), is eventually sent back in time to 1990 and 1996, when the plague began.

The time machine, however, toys with the user's brain, so Cole isn't always cogent during his visits to the past. He ends up falling in love with a woman in the past (Madeline Stowe) and discover a 1990s conspiracy involving an eco-terrorism group called the Army of the 12 Monkeys.

Emily Alyn Lind, Shubham Maheshwari, Joseph Zada and Esther McGregor have joined the cast of Prime Video’s new drama series “We Were Liars,” based on the young adult novel of the same name by E. Lockhart.

They join previously announced cast members Mamie Gummer, Caitlin FitzGerald, Candice King, David Morse, and Asher Ali.

Lind joins the cast as Cadence, “the revered eldest granddaughter of a Kennedy-esque American dynasty, effortlessly clever and adventurous [with] a knack for dramatic storytelling,” per the official character description. Maheshwari will take on the role of Gat, a “thoughtful, ambitious and intelligent New York City kid with an edge — so he can’t help but feel a bit out of place amongst Martha’s Vineyard’s cashmere-and-gingham elite.” McGregor will play Mirren, a “wickedly funny and keenly observant…artist who is too worried about being perfect to color outside the lines.” Zada has been cast as Johnny,...

Disturbia was not a remake of Rear Window but drew inspiration from it, creating an original story. The idea for Disturbia came to Christopher Landon while listening to Martha Stewart's house arrest story. D. J. Caruso and Shia Labeouf watched Straw Dogs, The Conversation, and Say Anything to prepare for the film.

The 2007 neo-noir psychological thriller Disturbia, starring Shia Labeouf, has strong similarities to an Alfred Hitchcock classic, raising questions about it being a remake or a modern version of it. Directed by D. J. Caruso and with a script by Christopher Landon and Carl Ellsworth, Disturbia starred Shia Labeouf, Sarah Roemer, David Morse, and Carrie-Anne Moss. Disturbia was well-received by critics and was a box-office success, and it found more success upon its arrival on Netflix, quickly climbing to the streaming giants global top 10.

Disturbia follows Kale Brecht (Labeouf), who is sentenced to three months of house arrest.

Sight stars Terry Chen as Dr. Wang (and Ben Wang as a young version of the doctor) and Greg Kinnear, and continues Angel Studios' trend of inspiring biopics. Dr. Wang's philanthropic efforts through The Wang Foundation for Sight Restoration have helped patients globally, and he's teaming with Angel Studios for the social campaign 'I Am In.'

With the new film Sight, the surprisingly successful Angel Studios continues to distribute biographical dramas about inspiring true stories and small heroes. Following the excellent Cabrini and Sound of Freedom from Alejandro Monteverde, Sight tells a moving true story of a Chinese immigrant who works to become a Harvard and MIT-educated eye surgeon whose innovations in the field have helped countless people regain their vision.

Shia Labeouf's acclaimed Hitchcockian thriller, Disturbia, becomes a global Netflix hit 17 years later. Directed by D.J.

In the film, “Hannah (played by Upload’s Mackenize Cardwell) moves in with a charismatic Amish leader, Aaron (McPartlin), to help with his ailing wife,” reads the official synopsis. “Seeking refuge after leaving her Amish community, Hannah is grateful to Aaron and his wife for opening their home to her and giving her work but as she tends to her household chores,...

Serialized storylines are, naturally, tricky for shows that are, by design, inherently episodic. When "House" devoted a large chunk of its third season to the relentless Detective Michael Tritter (David Morse) trying to get back at Hugh Laurie's misanthropic diagnostician for humiliating him, the series' writers were banking on viewers not losing interest before the pair's conflict had concluded. As one of those viewers, let me tell you: It's a good thing they didn't push their luck any further than they did, even if pitting House against a cop was about as effective a way as any to get us to overlook the former's many, many blatantly unethical indiscretions and root for him to outwit this wannabe Moriarty to his Sherlock.

"Bones," like "House," was primarily episodic, with its namesake, Dr. Temperance Brennan (Emily Deschanel), and her other half, FBI agent Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz), typically wrapping up a...

Michael Douglas is in terrific form as Benjamin Franklin in Apple TV’s new historical limited series “Franklin” but he isn’t the only actor to emerge with awards whispers whizzing through the air. Veteran actor Eddie Marsan features in a key supporting role as John Adams and delivers one of the finest performances of his career while also shining a new light onto a man that many actors have depicted before.

The limited series follows Franklin’s eight years in France as he tried to persuade King Louis XVI (Tom Pezier) to join the colonies’ cause and aid them in the American Revolutionary War. The scenes between Douglas and Marsan are nothing short of spectacular and Marsan nails his performance as Adams, as noted by critics.

Clint Worthington (Roger Ebert) noted: “Marsan’s energy as Adams is decidedly different from Paul Giamatti’s in Ellis’ original 2008 miniseries—“Franklin” feels...

The 1999 Frank Darabont film "The Green Mile" has its fair share of truly despicable characters, but the grossest of them all has to be Sam Rockwell's "Wild Bill" Wharton, who assaults and abuses both corrections officers and his fellow inmates with abandon. In the film, based on the novel of the same name by Stephen King, Wild Bill is an inmate who comes to the death row facility where guard Paul Edgecomb (Tom Hanks) works and makes life hell for everyone there, and Rockwell really put his all into it, portraying one of cinema's biggest slimeballs. He uses racist slurs, urinates on a guard's shoes, and spits a whole bunch of Moon Pie chocolate filling all over another guard. He also spits right in Paul's face, and it's nasty.

In a video for GQ where he breaks down his most iconic roles, Rockwell shares the secrets behind what was...

Denzel Washington's success was propelled by his impressive talent showcased on St. Elsewhere, where he learned and grew alongside a talented ensemble cast. Washington's role as Dr. Phillip Chandler in the medical drama series allowed him to transition smoothly into feature films while maintaining visibility. While some of his early films didn't gain much traction, Washington's compelling screen presence and potential for greatness were evident from the start.

Denzel Washington was 22 when he made his screen acting debut in the 1977 NBC made-for-television film Wilma, in which he plays Robert Eldridge, the 18-year-old high school sweetheart of American track sprinter Wilma Rudolph. The actor was 26 when he made his feature film acting debut in the 1981 comedy-drama film Carbon Copy, in which Washington plays Roger Porter, the 17-year-old secret Black son of a rich white corporate executive, played by George Segal.

However, Washington’s breakthrough role, in terms of the public consciousness,...
