Emilia Clarke completely inhabits her blue-eyed, redneck fallen angel role in “Above Suspicion” (2021), the story of an FBI informant (her) and agent who get more than they bargained for in drug-infested, 1988 Kentucky. She also gets an incredible number of close-ups, so much so that you become intoxicated and immersed, especially if you’re watching it on a Monday morning while slowly recovering from actual intoxication the night before. It may not be a great film, but I can recommend it for Monday couch recovery. Also, Johnny Knoxville is good as the menacing, drug-dealer boyfriend. Based on a true story.
