I Recommend...

This is inspired by a website (here
HTML https://agoodmovietowatch.com
if you're interested)
A lot of forums have a "what's your favorite movie/book/band"
thread and/or a "what did you last read/watch/listen to" thread.
While those are cool, this is a little bit different. Instead of
just stating what you last watched or what you like the most,
try writing a brief recommendation as you would to a friend, or
you'd publish on a blog. What's something you saw that you think
someone else would enjoy, and why? What audiences would like it?
Who wouldn't?
Here
HTML https://agoodmovietowatch.com/shows/rectify/
is an example of
what I mean. Here's my recommendation for an AMAZING show called
Rectify:

Rectify is an incredible show about the emotional journey one
man takes upon his release from death row after 19 years. The
acting, direction, and soundtrack of this series is
unparalleled. While it does tackle some pretty intense topics
like the death penalty, corruption, spirituality, and more, the
show’s primary focus is exploring a story of a much more
intimate nature. Daniel is the show’s main protagonist – a
smart, thoughtful, damaged man who’s both vulnerable, yet
mysterious. His release affects everyone in his family very
differently – some, like his sister, Agatha, had been fighting
for his release since the day he was arrested. Others, like his
brother-in-law, suspect he’s guilty of the crime he was accused
of. Still others, like the town sheriff, want to find new
evidence to lock him away again. That said, this is a story
that’s driven primarily by characters – and it’s a slow burn.
The plot might be too slow for those who want to find out right
away if Daniel is innocent or not of the crime. But if you watch
the scene in the very first episode when Daniel meets his mother
and sister outside of a prison cell for the first time in nearly
twenty years and you don’t feel a torrent of powerful emotion,
then this may not be the best series for you. But the rest of
you will surely be mesmerised by the thoughtfulness and beauty
of this show.

I have to recommend this new book series I'm reading known as
the "Wolf by Wolf" series by Ryan Graudin. This series is really
thought out and well written, I'm currently on the first book
(Wolf by Wolf) and I would highly recommend this series to
anyone looking for a good read. The series takes place in an
alternate world where the Nazi's win World War 2 and set up
their almost global empire. The series will keep you on the edge
of your seat and is growing to be one my favorite series I've
ever read!
