Cantwell also praised Pounder's performance. "I don't know how the hell she's able to pull this off— she's so incredible in what she does—but she's able to hitch for a moment and then go, 'Man we got a job to do! Which is why they're stuck there. They all have their reasons—this is my job, I have to clock in every day, and I have to endure the horrors that happen all around me, which feels very relevant to 2026... she nailed it, I think, in that teaser." Devil in Silver premieres on May 7, 2026, on AMC+ and Shudder.

Ok rewatching All the Presidents Men again: the geometry of this movie is so fascinating You have these two rectangular, geometric, cubicled-off spaces: the newsroom and the parking garage One is bright and loud, one is dark and silent You have the circle of the Library of Congress room and its web-like nature And the circle of the phone dial And the rectangle of the legal pad And the folded, columned rectangle of the newspaper Too much? It's a lot
