On this week’s episode, Sonny Bunch (The Bulwark), Alyssa Rosenberg (The Washington Post), and Peter Suderman (Reason), ask what it means that Chinese theaters are apparently open again for Hollywood business. Then they discuss Netflix’s new murder mystery, The Pale Blue Eye: Is it a cut above Netflix’s standard hashtag-content, or something to watch while folding laundry on a Wednesday night? Make sure to swing by Bulwark+ on Friday for our bonus episode on Edgar Allan Poe. And if you enjoyed this episode, share it with a friend!

'Pale Blue Eye': Worth a Laundry-Folding Watch?
Agree, the movie does not show why Poe's inclusion is clever, that he's solving a mystery and goes on to write the first detective story.
I wonder if the people who made the film assume everyone knows this?
I'm 3/4 of the way through the book and am surprised how closely the Netflix version (so far) cleaves to the book.
I adore Gillian Anderson in her many forms.
Is the public only upset with actresses playing indigenous characters? Robert Duvall gets a pass?
100%, should have been released in October.
