Burned In: A Review of Smoke’s Fiery Psyche
from Stories in Motion · host D & J
In this episode, we dive deep into Smoke, Apple TV+’s smoldering upcoming crime thriller from Black Bird creator Dennis Lehane. Taron Egerton and Jurnee Smollett lead a story that twists fire, trauma, and identity into a psychological slow burn. We break down its literary flair, unreliable narration, standout performances (shoutout to Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine), and the themes that keep you watching—even when the plot frays at the edges. Smoke doesn’t give you closure, but it sure leaves scorch marks.
