At the beginning of (and during) every month, Hulu adds new movies and TV shows to its library. Below, you’ll find our recommendations for March 2017. For more comprehensive coverage of the best titles available on Hulu and elsewhere, check out Vulture’s What to Stream Now hub, which is updated throughout the month.
Danger zone: Archer (season 7)
The brilliance of the later seasons of FX’s gut-busting spy spoof is its approach to theme and variations. Archer and the rest of the idiots at his agency don’t have to be literal spies for their comic potential to work. In the most recent season, the gang relocated from New York to L.A. and opened a private detective agency, one that technically boasted our beleaguered Cyril’s name on the door but actually just let Archer get into his lowbrow, shoot-em-up tricks all over again. Riffs on James Bond get traded for classic noir conventions without missing a beat — or an opportunity for an atrocious pun. Available March 28.
Fame crime: National Treasure
No, not the movie where Nicolas Cage desecrates the Declaration of Independence. This is a Hulu-exclusive import of a four-part British crime mini-series — a ripped-from-the-headlines story of a beloved TV comic (played by Harry Potter’s Robbie Coltrane) accused of raping a 15-year-old girl. Though it’s formally based on Operation Yewtree, the U.K. investigation that ensnared children’s host Jimmy Savile on sexual abuse charges, the series is charged with resonance for American audiences, bringing to mind any number of high-profile dismantling of formerly untouchable entertainers. All episodes available March 1.
Dick Laurent is dead: Lost Highway
An illustration of David Lynch at his most thrillingly elliptical, Lost Highway mashes up a terrifying nightmare about a succession of secret home-invasion videotapes with a noir-ish tale of intrigue about a mechanic who falls for a troublesome dame with connections to a savage crime lord. The film’s breaking point comes when Bill Pullman’s jazz musician, awaiting execution for the alleged murder of his wife, becomes a different person altogether. Why does this happen? Who is the mysterious stranger who seems to know all the players? Whose dream are we living in? At least we definitely know the answer to the last question: It is, and has always been, Lynch’s dream. Available March 1 with Showtime add-on.
