BEST MOVIES ON NETFLIX TO BINGE:
If the above list contains far too many familiar titles, drown your woes in a binge-watching session full of the finest films Netflix has to offer.
The Big Sick (2017): Based on the true story of Kumail Nanjiani and Emily V. Gordon's romance, the emotion-infused comedy shows stand-up comic Kumail (Nanjiani) fall for grad student Emily (Zoe Kazan). Plagued by the traditional roles his Muslim parents set upon him, Kumail is struggling with finding balance in life when Emily is suddenly beset with a mystery illness. Forced to navigate the medical crisis with Emily's parents (Holly Hunter, Ray Romano) who he's never met, the emotional tug-of-war is documented in this Michael Showalter and Judd Apatow film.
'MOANA' (2016):
Before scrolling past as soon as you realize it's an animated (some would argue children's) movie, remember that it stars Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as the demi-god Maui. Throughout the film, he and Auli'i Cravalho's Moana argue about whether or not Moana is a princess. "If you were a dress and you have an animal sidekick, you're a princess," Maui says.
By the end of the film, the audience has their answer — both character are right. By no means does Moana prescribe to Disney's typical princess definition, but she is, after all, the daughter and heir of a tribal chief. Refreshingly free of a male love interest, Moana realizes at the end of the film that her future lies in her own hands.
The strong female lead combined with music composed by Lin-Manuel Miranda is everything a modern fairy tale should be.
'THE CONJURING' (2013):
If you're one of those people who celebrates Halloween with the first hint of crisp autumn air, this horror flick will get you in the mood. Director James Wan conjures up one of his scariest feature films with a haunted house/possession storyline you might think tired — but he somehow spins it into an stylish and intriguing flick you can't take your eyes off.
Expect big scares without the typical standard Hollywood jump scare tropes. Those wary of gore, violence and sexuality don't need to worry about the film's R rating, however, as it's simply too frightening to squeeze into a PG-13 label.
'CAROL' (2015):
Set in 1950s New York, Therese (Rooney Mara) meets Carol (Cate Blanchett) while working at a department store. Immediately intrigued by each other, their bond deepens until they become romantically involved. While Carol finds the courage to leave her husband of convenience (Kyle Chandler), he realizes that Carol's relationships with her best friend (Sarah Paulson) and Therese are more than simple friendships.
'THE GODFATHER' TRILOGY (1972, 1974, 1990):
Oldies but goodies. All three Godfather films are available to stream on Netflix, which means if you've been putting off watching the classic mobster movies, now is your chance. Throughout its three editions, The Godfather answers the question of "How far am I willing to go to protect my family?" while telling the story of the Corleones. Revolving around family and power, Francis Ford Coppola's trilogy answers the question: In the end, you'll wind up losing one in pursuit of the other.
