Tulsa King

by Christos Zabounis

News no.1: Sylvester Stalone turned 75. News no.2: “Rambo” stars for the first time in a television series. News no.3: “Tulsa King” rose to the number 2 television viewing of all the series that Paramount has streamed so far on its streaming platform. News no.4: Ever since Monday, September 16, this dramedy (drama + comedy) is shown on Cosmote TV. News no.5: After “Yellowstone” screenwriter Taylor Sheridan, a specialist in neo-westerns, deals with the Mafia. The woke critics of the U.S. they don’t like him much (see criticism of the “Holywood reporter”), because he presents the white version of History. From Kevin Kostner to Harrison Ford in ‘Spin off 1923’, to Jeremy Renner in ‘Mayor of Kingstown’, and Chris Pine in ‘Hell of High Water’, his heroes are old school, with a conservative take on world. We could call them “dinosaurs”, in the sense of the old fashioned, as the old fashion is attributed to the Greek. On the case now, Dwight Manfredi is exiled from his mob family after 25 years in prison in Tulsa, Oklahoma. There, he will build his own empire, with an “army” of unequal and subversive partners, “getting into the eye” of his former partners, but also of a local tycoon. Pleasant viewing.
