Seven years after winning the best director Oscar for "The Revenant" -- making him the third director to do so back-to-back after winning "Birdman" the year before -- Alejandro G. Inarritu returns to Netflix with an epic solo Spanish-language drama. Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths follows Daniel Giménez Cacho as a documentary filmmaker as he returns to his native Mexico, where he is going through an existential crisis. – Adam Chitwood This is what Mark Duplass says he discovered almost by accident. The 44-year-old director and actor is best known for his work behind the camera with his brother Jay, as well as his starring role on FX fantasy football comedy The League. But a few years ago, brothers Maclain and Chapman Way needed help selling their series "Wild Country," which focuses on the often illegal activities of fringe religious groups in Oregon.

The commercial features a murder mystery and a surprising twist
The sheer volume of interest in the new show — and, like Making a Murderer, the continued media attention on others — has surprised even industry veterans. Joe Berlinger, who alongside Bruce Sinofsky directed true crime classics such as the 1990s Paradise Lost trilogy and Brother's Keeper, maintained a respectable career over the next few decades, the current boom has given motivation for his work. In the past two years alone, he has overseen the hugely successful Netflix: 2019's Conversations with a Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes and Crime Scene: The Vanishing of the Cecil Hotel, which Nelson estimated watched in its first week alone 1.286 billion minutes. As a producer, he also tied his name to Jeffrey Epstein documentaries and the Mormon murders. Thirty years after his breakthrough, his career is bigger than ever. "I'm 60, and I thought they were going to throw me out to pasture by now—I'd have my wonderful little career, and I'd be over," Berlinger said. "I've never been this busy."
The meeting was like that of many Smerlings in the past: A group of producers suggested that he screen a true-crime documentary series that would ostensibly—shockingly—solve a grim murder. But Smerling felt something was wrong. To the best of police knowledge, the alleged perpetrators have never been brought to justice, arrested or investigated. However, the series will conduct its own full-blown investigation, which it says will incriminate the man — even "hitting the watermelon with something to break it because it's like a person's head," Smerling said. When the producers got to the end, Smerling said he didn't leave any room: "I was like, 'You guys are going to be sued,'" he recalls. "'What you did is not necessarily true because there is no evidence. Nothing you have told me proves that this happened.'"
