Vignettes of a couple floating over war-torn Germany, a father and daughter braving torrential rain, a teenager dancing outside a cafe, and a defeated army marching to a prisoner-of-war camp comprise these reflections on loneliness and the human condition—topics we've all spent more time than usual thinking about this past year—from famed Swedish director Roy Andersson.

Of all the breakout-successful, paradigm-altering television productions Ryan Murphy is responsible for—most of which are some combination of deliciously irresponsible and contagiously trashy—time will likely show that the most meaningful, substantial, and beautiful thing associated with his name will be Pose, a drama about the '80s ballroom scene in New York, and the way the people in it redefined family for themselves. This is its final season.
