The timeless "Mad Men" on Amazon Prime Video

Thirteen years ago appeared on AMC the series Mad Men . During seven seasons, the tribulations of the charismatic and enigmatic publicist Don Draper and the Sterling Cooper agency in New York of the 1960s met with both critical and public success. Matt Weiner's cult series is now available on Amazon Prime Video. Why should we take the time to review it in 2020? On the one hand, because the 1950s and 1960s are fabulously telegenic and his visual style has still not been matched. On the other hand, because through Don Draper's journey, Matthew Weiner questions the essence of masculinity in the era of female emancipation. Finally because Mad Men , by taking an interest in advertising, questions the excesses of our consumerist society.Mad Men, a masterpiece ahead of its time, has finally never been so topical!

A dive into the tormented psyche of criminals where death row strangely appears as a haven of peace.
