Mind if I pick your brain? I enjoy compelling era pieces, though some fantasy or sci-fi is also great. I dislike identity politics and infantilizing exposition. By contrast I enjoy subtle metaphor and stories with nuance.

My favorite films would include Das Boot, I Claudius, and Seventeen Moments of Spring. For something more contemporary, I also enjoyed The Expanse. Any recommendations? Films or series in any language are okay.

In terms of recent releases, Banshees of Inisherin was the first thing that sprung to mind.
Trumbo, Lincoln, Let The Right One In (Swedish). Raised by Wolves (tv).
Great! I'll look into these.
