Seberg

Seberg, in the US on Amazon Prime Video, takes its characters as seriously as it takes its plot.

Start it on Amazon Prime Video whenever you need something guaranteed to land.

Seberg arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. Seberg takes its time building the world its characters inhabit, and the patience pays off. An ambitious young FBI agent is assigned to investigate iconic actress Jean Seberg when she becomes embroiled in the tumultuous civil rights movement in late 1960s Los Angeles. The performances from Kristen Stewart and Jack O'Connell give it more weight than the premise alone would suggest. It hit screens in 2019. The performances in Seberg do a lot of work in the silences between the dialogue. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

For anyone looking for storytelling that takes its characters seriously, Seberg delivers. If you have run out of similar titles to watch, this is a strong next pick. It is a manageable watch, easy to fit into a single evening. Kristen Stewart's work here is the kind that gets referenced in career retrospectives. It makes everything else feel thin by comparison.
