OP here....omg, let's see, to sum up, thanks to you all, I've watched
The Night Manager
Le Bureau (3 years of daily Duolingo did not help me; thank goodness for subtitles)
Mindhunter (holy yikes)
Deutchland 83 and 85 (that actor is mesmerizing due to his asymmetrical face)
Patriot
(I've already seen Band of Brothers, which of course is the best)
Just want to say...wow; great recommendations. That's why I'm bumping this thread. Tomorrow going to go through it again and pick something else. Thank you all!
