I’ve screened all eight episodes of the new Hulu limited series “Pam & Tommy”, starring a mostly unrecognizable Lily James as Pamela Anderson and an equally all-in Sebastian Stan as Tommy Lee. The show focuses on the ‘90s sex tape scandal that took the world by storm: how it was conceived, how it was stolen, […]
The first major, narrative film to debut on HBO Max is an acquisition. Sony’s “An American Pickle” was originally set for a theatrical release. However, the studio decided to hand the distribution reigns over to Warner Bros. for an in-home, streaming premiere.

Rogen and Rose Byrne play Mac and Kelly, a young married couple with […]
