Watchlist:

In 2013, there are no highways, no I-ways, no dreams of a better tomorrow, only scattered survivors across what was once the United States. Into this apocalyptic wasteland comes an enigmatic drifter with a mule, a knack for Shakespeare, and something yet undiscovered: the power to inspire hope.

Why you might like this:

Fans of Kevin Costner's directorial style and post-apocalyptic sci-fi adventures will appreciate the sweeping visual scope and powerful themes of hope and redemption in The Postman, Costner's 1997 epic set in a dystopian future America.
