I can't think of a different show of which all characters feel so real, so human, and is able to capture how people talk and interact. There's so many moments in Rectify that felt so true, as if they came straight out of life, my life even (and I don't live anywhere near Georgia, or the US, even). Such a beautiful…

Honesty, this is not nearly as weird as any of the actual descriptions in the review itself.

Yes. Of course Shannon's character has made huge progress, as he's finally going to get serious help for his illness, but it's in no way over, maybe even never. But there's one important difference now: the little nod by Chastain's character (who is now also "seeing" the storm) show that's they're in it together, and…
Rewatched Tabu (the Gomes film) after seeing it for the first time a few weeks ago. In between the two viewings I watched the 1931 Murnau film with the same title, which managed to hit me a lot harder at first viewing than Gomes' film, but besides structural similarities and the fact both films deal with forbidden…
But "pulling the plug" is something that happens all around the world, and isn't covered by euthanasia laws. It's true these matters are much more of moral grey area, but they don't have that much to do with euthanasia, which is precisely meant to give power back to the patient. So doctors and systems get a lot less…
To be fair, it took me a long time to process what you're writing here, before realizing just how different Americans see this matter, which is of course due to the vastly different states our respective public debates are in (I'm from Belgium by the way, so I'll largely base my arguments on Belgian euthanasia laws…
What is wrong with euthanasia with consent?
I love how this show can be jumping-off point for discussions about the all the topics you're mentioning, and it's cool to see more people interested in doing so. And you're right, de episode titles are a pretty easy lead to the themes of the season (and in a way, these become more and more complicated, starting from…
And it turns out Caroline did write a bit about the show over at Vox, reviewing epsiode 5. Very different from what we got here:

yes, this is definitely how I feel about the reviews: they don't really bring anything new to the table, and only recap the episode. Which is a shame, because although Orphan Black is a kinda goofy, pulpy sci-fi show, there's quite a bit of interesting philosophy, especially regarding gender and ethics. Caroline's…
Altman is a bit of blind spot for me, having only seen two films of his. However, the first one I saw was actually the The Company and I liked it a lot.

This looks delightfully terrible
Adam's Apples, Jensen's previous movie, also stars Mikkelsen, now as a lunatic priest who tries to rehabilitate a Neo-Nazi gang leader. It's a totally bonkers, (very) darkly funny film.
I guess, but I sure hope they won't. It's nice to know they actually know where they're going.
The show is planned to have five seasons: http://www.eonline.com/news…
her early stuff is pretty heavy on Dune references
