“Til Death Do Us Part”

A whole new meaning.

Vaccaro convinces Nike co-founder Phil Knight (Ben Affleck) to devote all its resources to signing Jordan to wear its shoes, a gamble that eventually led to a billion-dollar empire.
Air also stars Viola Davis as Michael Jordan’s mother Deloris Jordan.

5. Master (Horror, Drama,Thriller)

Master is a slow burn that takes place at an elite New England university built on the site of a Salem-era gallows hill.

But when they begin to encounter terrifying manifestations of the school’s haunted past, they soon find that the past may still be present.

6. Val (Documentary)

Since before he became a star, Val Kilmer has been constantly recording his life, from revealing moments on Hollywood productions to more private corners of his life. That obsession is a gift to us, in the form of the 2021 documentary Val. The picture we get is of a complicated man often at odds with himself struggling with his mortality and his legacy. Val is a surprisingly open and honest portrait of the actor that you don’t want to miss.
