I was lucky enough to see Wake Up Dead Man last week (thank you, @netflix.com and @iffboston.bsky.social).

I saw an early screening of Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery at the #BrattleTheatre as part of @iffboston.bsky.social #FallFocus
It was great, I think my favorite of the series. Thanks #Netflix for putting it in independent theatres.
