What else to watch

The Drama, cinemas everywhere

The Drama is an A24 romantic thriller directed by Kristoffer Borgli, which follows seemingly perfect couple Emma (Zendaya) and Charlie (Robert Pattinson) as their relationship begins to unravel over the course of their wedding week in Boston. What starts as a glossy, high-fashion rom-com soon takes a sharp turn into darker territory, evolving into a “cringe”-tinged psychological drama that probes intimacy, hidden tensions and the secrets threatening to pull them apart.

The Testaments, Apple TV

A sequel to The Handmaid’s Tale, and based on Margaret Atwood’s 2019 novel, the story unfolds along two strands. One follows Aunt Lydia – the only major returning character, played by Ann Dowd, whose calm menace defined the original series – as she writes a memoir about the harrowing experiences that led to her complicity in patriarchal, authoritarian Gilead. The main plot focuses on the school years of Agnes (played by Chase Infiniti), who is in fact Hannah, the daughter June and Luke spent the entirety of The Handmaid’s Tale trying to reclaim after Gilead took her. Now, a young woman being groomed as a future wife for a commander, Agnes, meets Daisy (Lucy Halliday), a new student from free Canada, determined to undermine Gilead from within and who enlists Agnes’s help in her dangerous mission.
