COVID-19 looms on the horizon and with so little time left,…

Today, in everything old is new again news: The battle between the people who make (or at least own) the TV shows, and the people who actually stick the TV shows in our houses, has just stepped back from one its periodic trips to the brink. Rather than a fight between studios and cable companies, though—an old fight…

Watch This offers movie recommendations inspired by new releases, premieres, current events, or occasionally just our own inscrutable whims. This week: Antonio Campos and Sean Durkin both have new movies coming out, so we’re looking back on other projects released by their production company, Borderline Films.
