>the PERFORMANCE. Simply phenomenal from every. Single. Cast

I wonder if there's a connection between an actor being the director, and the phenomenal performances of ALL of the cast. It certainly seems as if Ben Stiller allows his actors to do their absolute best. I wasn't as captivated by Severance as many are, but I really, really agree with the idea that the performances of the individual cast members is among their best. I wonder if Stiller's extensive experience as an actor may have informed his direction.

Its too easy, I'm sure, but you're sure it was a tv show and not a movie ? "The Girl on the Train" with Brit Emily Blunt ? It was intially released 6 years ago, so would have likely hit Netflix about 4-ish years ago. But its a movie, not a show.
