Strange Weather

Right now you can watch Strange Weather in the US on Amazon Prime Video and Cineverse Amazon Channel — and it holds up to as much attention as you give it. It says what it needs to say in one sitting, no filler. 60 people have weighed in on TMDB, and the verdict leans heavily positive. Holly Hunter leads a cast that never overplays its hand. Put it on tonight on Amazon Prime Video and see for yourself.

Part of the current wave of titles people are actually watching, Strange Weather earns its spot. Strange Weather trusts its audience to sit with discomfort instead of resolving it too quickly. Years after her son's suicide, a woman longs to confront both the past and a friend of his who took his business idea. Holly Hunter and Carrie Coon lead a cast doing genuinely serious work here. It hit screens in 2016. The writing trusts the audience to sit with ambiguity rather than wrapping everything up in a tidy conclusion — it is the approach that separates good drama from great. There is real craft here, even in the moments that do not fully land.

For anyone looking for storytelling that takes its characters seriously, Strange Weather delivers. It does not lean on comparisons to make its case. A contained runtime means every scene is doing real work. Holly Hunter carries the material with a performance that rewards close attention. Worth starting sooner rather than later.
