"Chefs vs. Wild" Chef and adventurer Kiran Jethwa is the host of this competition series that drops world class chefs into the wilderness, where they will be challenged to survive and forage enough wild ingredients to create a restaurant worthy, five-star meal. Jethwa will also serve as judge alongside wild foods expert Valerie Segrest. (ORIGINAL) "Movie: Samaritan" Sylvester Stallone produced and stars in this actioner from director Julius Avery ("Overlord," "Son of a Gun") that casts him as the mysterious Mr. Smith, a recluse whom young neighbor Sam (Javon "Wanna" Walton, "Euphoria") thinks may be a vigilante believed to have been killed in a firefight years earlier. Pilou Asbaek, Dascha Polanco and Moises Arias also star. (ORIGINAL) "Movie: Lou" Allison Janney does a stark departure from her "Mom" character to star in this thriller as the title character, a woman trying to put her dangerous past behind her — that is, until a neighbor (Jurnee Smollett, "Lovecraft Country") begs her to help find her kidnapped daughter. Logan Marshall-Green and Ridley Asha Bateman are also in the cast for director Anna Foerster ("Underworld: Blood Wars"). (ORIGINAL) "Under Wraps 2" (Sept. 29) This sequel to the 2021 animated fantasy finds pals Marshall (Malachi Barton), Gilbert (Christian J. Simon) and Amy (Sophia Hammons) banding together when Rose (Rryla McIntosh), the significant other of their mummy friend Harold (Phil Wright), is kidnapped by an undead former friend with a grudge. Adam Wylie from the 1997 version of "Under Wraps" also stars. (ORIGINAL) The STREAM Scene Where all the top choices can be found in one place! 10 • Terre Haute Tribune-Star • September 25 - October 1, 2022 BEST ROD STEIGER MOVIES "On the Waterfront" (1954) In an Oscar- winning drama loaded with great performances, Steiger made a big impression as the deal-making brother of rebellious dockworker Terry Malloy (Marlon Brando). "The Big Knife" (1955) Director Robert Aldrich's version of Clifford Odets' play casts Steiger as a movie-studio chief who may have a big part in the future of a troubled actor (Jack Palance). "Oklahoma!" (1955) Though Steiger wasn't a singer, he had an important role in this Rodgers and Hammerstein musical as brutish Jud Fry. "The Harder They Fall" (1956) Humphrey Bogart's last film features him as an ex-sportswriter who goes to work for a boxing promoter (Steiger). "Cry Terror!" (1958) Steiger is properly intense as the leader of a gang trying to extort a sizable ransom from a man (James Mason) whose family is held captive. "Al Capone" (1959) Steiger made a big leap toward his own stardom with his appropriately showy portrayal of the legendary mobster. "Convicts 4" (1962) This fact-inspired prison drama puts Steiger on the wrong side of the law yet again, though Ben Gazzara has the central role. "The Longest Day" (1962) Steiger was just one of the many international "name" stars in producer Darryl F. Zanuck's elaborate re-creation of D-Day. "The Pawnbroker" (1964) Superb in the title role, Steiger plays a man whose deeply haunting past affects his minimalist behavior in the present in this Sidney Lumet-directed masterpiece. Turner Classic Movies shows it on Sunday, Sept. 25. "Doctor Zhivago" (1965) An excellent Steiger plays Komarovsky, an influential Russian with a special and strong interest in heroine Lara (Julie Christie), in the David Lean-directed epic based on the Boris Pasternak novel. "In the Heat of the Night" (1967) A best- actor Oscar came Steiger's way for his searing performance as a bigoted small-town police chief forced to work with a Black metropolitan detective (Sidney Poitier) on a murder case. "No Way to Treat a Lady" (1968) An unsettling and superb Steiger plays a serial killer who adopts a variety of identities in committing his crimes. "The Illustrated Man" (1969) As the title suggests, Steiger spent a good amount of this Ray Bradbury-story adaptation wearing very little in the title role of a man whose body drawings tell stories. "Duck, You Sucker!" (1971) Also known as "A Fistful of Dynamite," this Western from director and co-writer Sergio Leone ("A Fistful of Dollars") casts Steiger as an outlaw who becomes caught up in the Mexican Revolution. "F.I.S.T." (1978) Director Norman Jewison's drama features Steiger as a senator investigating a labor-union leader (Sylvester Stallone). "The Amityville Horror" (1979) In one of his last prominent movie roles, Steiger plays a priest trying to rid a famously haunted house of its curse. "The Chosen" (1981) In an adaptation of Chaim Potok's bestseller, Steiger is typically solid as a man who has concerns about his son's (Robby Benson) new friendship.
