Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel 

So you’ve seen it trending all week on Twitter since it’s release, and now Friday is here you can finally engross yourself in the Vanishing at Cecil Hotel. Like most true crime documentary-series it’s never what it seems in the first instance, if anything it’s better, and the new Netflix series does just that. The 4-part episode series focuses on one specific case that has since gripped the TL –  the fascinating disappearance of 21-year-old Canadian traveller Elisa Lam in 2013. Vanishing on the 31st of January that year, the traveller’s body was found three weeks later in the hotel’s water tank, leaving people with just one question – what happened to Elisa Lam? Berlinger and his team unpack all of the conspiracy theories and eventually leave us with what feels like the truth – but will you believe it?

Bliss

Since the release of The Matrix over two decades ago, people often wonder if this is all stimulation, for Greg Wittle in Mike Cahill’s Bliss this thinking doesn’t seem so far fetched. Spending his working days daydreaming and envisioning an idyllic coastal retreat, Wittle is eventually fired by his boss, but this unfortunately leads to an argument whereby Wittle inadvertently kills his boss. Panicking, Wittle runs away, but not before meeting seemingly homeless woman, Isabel (Salma Hayek). Introducing him to a new world of drugs, Isabel shows Wittle how to manipulate the world with telekinesis. But with all these endless possibilities opened up to him, Wittle struggles to see what is real and what isn’t. Dropping on Amazon Video, the film has received good reviews for Spring cover star Salma Hayek‘s performance.

In case you missed it…

The Dig

We know what you’re thinking, a film about archaeological finds sounds just about as dire as the Antiques Roadshow. But trust us, Simon Stone’s historical drama hits a lot harder than you think it would. Set in the 1930s, wealthy landowner Edith Pretty hire amateur archaeologist Basil Brown (Ralph Fiennes) to investigate the mounds on her property in England. The poetic and wistful film romanticises the unearthing of history and delivers class act acting from Johnny Flynn and Lily James.

Lupin

Fans of Money Heist prepare yourself, as we’re getting thrown back into the world of thieving for French drama Lupin. Having dropped on Netflix January 8th, the show has been taking over the TL, for its well thought out story and thrilling setting. Following the classic French story about Arséne Lupin, the world-famous gentleman thief and master of disguise, we’re taken through his life journey as he tries to clear his late father’s name. With the second part already set to come out this summer, engross yourself in this series this weekend.
