For fans of John Huston: what to watch, read & play next

Cross-media picks for John Huston fans — films, series, games and books in the same vein.

These picks share the restless energy of stories told on the margins — outsiders chasing gold, power, or survival in worlds that don't reward honest men. From Depression-era gangsters to post-apocalyptic wanderers, the through-line is moral ambiguity: characters who scheme, blunder, and occasionally find something worth keeping. The settings range from African wilderness to Prohibition speakeasies, but the sensibility stays constant — worldly, sardonic, and drawn to the moment when a plan starts to unravel.
