By Corrina Lawson | Mar 2, 2021 | Television

After two episodes of Snowpiercer minus Melanie Cavill, it was inevitable that there would be an episode devoted to her and “Many Miles From Snowpiercer” is her showcase, as well as a chance for Jennifer Connolly to yet again convince me to invest in her character.
