Our top pick for October

Dopesick

This limited series based on Beth Macy’s bestselling book of the same name explores the role Purdue Pharma played in creating the worst drug epidemic in U.S. history: Opioid addiction. Michael Keaton stars in the series and serves as one of its executive producers, portraying a doctor in a small mining town who realizes the deception — and the danger — involved in the relationship between pharmaceutical companies and the medical community far too late. His experience takes the audience from corporate boardrooms and DEA offices to local town boards and doctors’ offices as America’s struggle with opioid addiction gets the spotlight.
