BEST MOVIES OF 2021 (Lists)

[Chris Knipp]

Thanks for the information. I had not heard of t this HBO series. It sounds brilliant and devastating - it's been heralded as a masterpiece by many critics - and I'm sure could well qualify as Best Internationally-Produced Documentary Mini-Series. You don't mention, but the theme is that all modern white conquests have involved wiping out the locals, campaigns of genocide. A factoid Peck includes that will shock many, though it's not new, is that the Nazis took the killing off of Native Americans as a model for their attempted extermination of the Jews.

This thread hasn't gotten into TV or miniseries productions at all; it's focused exclusively on feature films. "Best 2021 release" is a rather loose category. "Best TV series (or mini-series) of 2021" would go into a different thread, except that Filmleaf is a site about film, not TV.
