In this episode of Screens in Focus, Diana and Renee kick things off with a heartfelt tribute to Val Kilmer, honoring his unforgettable performances in Top Gun, The Doors, Tombstone, and more.
They then dive into Dark Winds Season 3, Episode 5—an episode packed with emotional weight, major reveals, and some seriously intense moments. From Joe’s deepening guilt and spiritual crisis, to Emma’s powerful ultimatum, and Chee’s soulful spiral, there’s a lot to unpack. They explore the symbolism of the "monster," the idea of finding balance on the pollen road, and the tension between justice and morality.
You’ll also hear about key investigations, surprising relationship shifts, a little musical moment from Chee, and suspicions around Ivan. And as always, Diana and Renee bring their thoughtful insights, humor, and a few fun recommendations to wrap things up
