I  watched the final episode of "The Young Pope".....directed by Paolo Sorrentino, who also directed "This Must Be The Place"... Both "Art" films were pretty much ignored in the U.S. The costuming, by Carlo Poggioli, is worth the ride....with contributions by House of Armani.....A beautiful cinematic journey of enigmatic excesses......
out of Nowhere, Swedish actor, Martin Wallström, after a string of artsy Swedish movies, hit the World's TV screens as MR. ROBOT's Tyrell Wellick....with little evidence of his Nordic lineage.....He's the new ambiguous Liv Ullman manchild.....and that's no skammen....to Rami Malek's schizoid convolutions....don't try to count the interpositing scan lines, folks.....it's all Hi-Def!
