“Love Infinity,” streaming from 3/25, MUBI (globally curated film streaming platform).

How many times have you heard someone say about an upcoming show or film, ‘You’ve never seen anything like this before’? Well, with “Love Infinity” it’s probably the truth.

The filmmaker is Oscar-winner Tim Yip (“Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”) who, like several of the people in this semi-documentary/semi-fiction art film, is a fusion artist, working in a variety of disciplines.

At its core, the film is about artists in East London, including Daniel Lismore, whom “Vogue” called “England’s most eccentric dresser.” He’s that and more, living his life as sculpture (you’ll see). And a tip of the cap to Jonny Woo, another artist, comedian and drag queen, whose opening monologue is compelling.

“We Crashed,” streaming, Apple TV+. We love watching train wrecks. And when the train’s conductors are Anne Hathaway and Jared Leto, it’s hard to turn away. Known for inhabiting his roles, Leto is as Adam Neumann, the Israeli “serial entrepreneur,” whose iron will and salesmanship built and almost destroyed WeWork.

In a wig and aping an Israeli accent, Leto’s performance will strike some as over-the-top. Yet, in contrast to Hulu’s “The Drop Out,” where it’s unclear why investors trusted Elizabeth Holmes, it’s obvious why people invested with Neumann. At 8 eps, the series is long. The best eps bookend a sagging middle.
