What you're streaming: “Yellowstone” begins its ending, Eddie Redmayne as a sniper and Aubrey Plaza gets high

Eddie Redmayne as a sniper for hire in new limited series The Day of the Jackal and Yellowstone riding off into the sunset with the release of its final episodes are some of the new TV, film, music and gaming releases There is a device near you on the way.

Also among the streaming offerings selected by The Associated Press entertainment journalists are Aubrey Plaza, the lead in the coming-of-age comedy “My Old Ass,” and two famous Nintendo siblings who are up for the Video game Mario team up & Luigi Brotherhood and Whitney Houston's epic 1994 concert video in post-apartheid South Africa.

– What better way to spend election week than with a psychedelic mushroom-induced Aubrey Plaza? Well, there probably is. But still, Megan Park's “My Old Ass” (streaming on Prime Video on Thursday) is a uniquely charming and strangely moving coming-of-age drama. The film stars Maisy Stella as Elliott, an 18-year-old whose birthday mushroom trip while camping in the Muskoka region of Ontario conjures up a surreal visitor: her 39-year-old self (played by Plaza). In his review, AP's Mark Kennedy called the results “uneven, but (Park) nails the landing.”

– Of the many fans of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger's films, none are more passionate than Martin Scorsese. In “Made in England: The Films of Powell and Pressburger” (airing Thursday on TCM), Scorsese recounts his journey through films that had a profound impact on the filmmaker. In it he describes how he was “so enchanted by them as a child that they form a large part of the subconscious of my films.” Directed by David Hinton and produced by Thelma Schoonmaker, the documentary is not only a chronicle of films such as “The Red Shoes”, “Black Narcissus” and “I Know Where I'm Going!” but captures how films captivate you, change you and can live with you as you grow older.

– With many glued to their screens on Tuesday for the election results, it could be a good week to rewatch some of the best films about American politics. Alan Pakula's spooky assassination thriller The Parallax View is streaming on Paramount+. On Hoopla you'll find both John Frankenheimer's mind control masterpiece The Manchurian Candidate and Elia Kazan's prescient A Face in the Crowd. “Election,” Alexander Payne’s biting satire, is streaming on Fubo. Spike Lee's powerful film “Malcolm X” is available to rent, as is Steven Spielberg's epic “Lincoln.” But if you're feeling more cynical, you can find Mike Judge's “Idiocracy” on Hulu.
