The 10-part Jenkins series, which is based on David Lynch's Twin Peaks season 3, defies television conventions in terms of scale, scope, and performance. It is a sight to behold, even when the sun shines on your TV in the living room.AdvertisementIf you're looking for perfect viewing conditions and live in New York City, you are in luck. This July, the IFC Center will screen all 10 episodes of Jenkins series in cinemas. This is the place to be, with a darkened theater, massive sound system and serious air conditioning, to enjoy one of the most outstanding shows of the year.Barry Jenkins is an exceptional filmmaker and has created another masterpiece with The Underground Railroad. John Vanco, General Managers of the IFC Center, stated that Barry Jenkins is truly a unique filmmaker. Although it's a series, it's a compelling story about Cora and the world Barry and his team have created, and we are proud to bring it to New York.Underground Railroad is a series that has been praised by many. The Underground Railroad is shown here at the A.V. Stephen Robinson, a writer for the A.V. Club, gave the series an A. The Underground Railroad, as Stephen Robinson wrote, shows slavery's brutality in shocking, often gruesome detail. There is the Rosemarys Baby-style psychological terror that a woman has her child taken from her; and a slave catcher who, like the Jaws shark, stalks prey and drags them to hell. It is impossible to escape the Underground Railroad's most disturbing moments.From July 16 to July 22, The Underground Railroad will be performing at New York City's IFC Center.
