The upcoming Apple TV series Cape Fear expands the classic stalker story, reflecting contemporary anxieties and featuring a new take on iconic characters.
Directed by Kornél Mundruczó (, Pieces of a Woman) and premiering at the Berlin Film Festival, it's filled with brief flashbacks and fleeting bursts of dance, all of which feel like they belong to a more interesting picture. Even Adams, who is at the center of the movie and as a performer has often transcended middling material (see also: Nightbitch), feels like she's been cast adrift.
