What You Should Watch This Weekend | Here’s Why Under the Banner of Heaven Is Worth Going Back To
This week’s recommendation is Under the Banner of Heaven, now streaming on Hulu — and if you missed this series when it first released, it’s absolutely worth going back to. Based on the bestselling nonfiction book by Jon Krakauer (Into the Wild, Into Thin Air), the show explores a chilling murder investigation set within a tight-knit religious community.
Andrew Garfield delivers one of the strongest emotional performances of his career, playing a detective whose faith is shaken as dark truths begin to surface. With gripping storytelling, a phenomenal supporting cast, and powerful themes about belief, identity, and trauma, Under the Banner of Heaven is the perfect slow-burn drama for your weekend binge.
In this episode of What You Should Watch This Weekend, I break down why this series still deserves attention today — no spoilers, just reasons why you should give it a shot. Let me know in the comments if you’ve already seen it or plan to start it this weekend!
