The story of a nightclub bouncer fighting small-town corruption is by no means high art; but it’s a solidly crafted, entertaining pulp melodrama, which won fans thanks to its ubiquity on cable television and its winning Patrick Swayze performance. The veteran action film director Doug Liman directs the remake, which moves all the macho bluster and street-fights to Florida from Missouri and casts Jake Gyllenhaal in the Swayze role. An eclectic cast includes the comedian Jessica Williams as a bar owner looking for protection from a cocky crime boss (Billy Magnussen) and his ferocious henchman (played by the U.F.C. champ Conor McGregor).Also arriving:March 7“Ricky Stanicky”March 12“Boat Story”March 14“Frida”March 19“Dinner Party Diaries with José Andrés” Season 1March 22“My Undead Yokai Girlfriend” Season 1March 26“Tig Notaro: Hello Again”March 28“American Rust: Broken Justice” Season 2“The Baxters” Season 1Giancarlo Esposito in “Parish.”Alyssa Moran/AMCNew to AMC+‘Parish’Starts streaming: March 31Based on the British crime series “The Driver,” “Parish” stars Giancarlo Esposito as Gray Parish, a down-on-his-luck New Orleans limousine service owner. With cash flow low — and with his wife (Paula Malcomson) and daughter (Arica Himmel) worrying that he has become too emotionally distant since his son was murdered — Gray is persuaded by a friend and former criminal associate (Skeet Ulrich) to take a job driving for a gangster known as The Horse (Zackary Momoh). This moody neo-noir is peppered with car chases and local color, though it’s primarily a character study, about a man forced by circumstance to confront the failures of his past.We are having trouble retrieving the article content.Please enable JavaScript in your browser settings.Thank you for your patience while we verify access.
