Michael Fassbender shines in Steve McQueen's Shame, Tom Cruise saves the world (and his career) in Ghost Protocol, Treme's second season, Ozu's Late Spring, and more.
Creators David Simon and Eric Overmeyer capture the elusive essence of post-Katrina New Orleans with their acclaimed and ongoing HBO series Treme. The show’s second season takes a dark turn with a focus on the street crime that returned to New Orleans a year-plus after the storm. The extended music sequences — so rare for a dramatic series — remain, but the city’s effusive soul is in far shorter supply here than it was in the show’s first season.
