What It’s About: Locked away in prison, a physically and mentally broken man recounts the events of his life that brought him to that point.

(Image credit: Paramount)

Babylon (2022)

The Director: Damien Chazelle

The Cast: Margot Robbie, Brad Pitt, Diego Calva

What It’s About: During Hollywood’s transition from silent films to “talkies,” actors, directors, and others associated with the industry try to survive the changing times.

What To Expect: Considering Damien Chazelle’s Babylon is set in the roaring ‘20s, it should be no surprise that this three-hour movie is filled with excess, depravity, and some of the steamiest moments of the past decade.

With a large assortment of erotic thrillers, mind-bending dramas, and over-the-top sex comedies, it’s safe to say that Paramount+ is going to set the mood, no matter the situation.

Philip Sledge
Content Writer

Philip grew up in Louisiana (not New Orleans) before moving to St. Louis after graduating from Louisiana State University-Shreveport. When he's not writing about movies or television, Philip can be found being chased by his three kids, telling his dogs to stop barking at the mailman, or chatting about professional wrestling to his wife. Writing gigs with school newspapers, multiple daily newspapers, and other varied job experiences led him to this point where he actually gets to write about movies, shows, wrestling, and documentaries (which is a huge win in his eyes). If the stars properly align, he will talk about For Love Of The Game being the best baseball movie of all time.
