1. Films Leaving Netflix
Tomorrow, on August 1st, 2014, over seventy films
are leaving the Netflix database. We won’t bore you
with all the titles you never would have watched
anyway. Instead, here is a short list of films you
should see. They are worth your while whether you
have heard of them as classics, or overlooked them
due to a lack of information. Here goes. Watch ‘em
quick.!
!Headhunters!
!An expert art thief working as a headhunter at a major corporation, steals an invaluable painting
belonging to another kind of headhunter, a mercenary. What starts out as a professional job, well
executed by a familiar expert, turns into a riotous, disturbing fight for survival. The film will surprise
you in how far it is willing to go to provide its characters with ultimate pain and discomfort.!
!If you haven’t seen this film yet, you should. It’s not surprising that many people have not heard of it.
The film came out of Norway by director Morten Tyldum and was only released in a few Art House
theaters in major US cities, like the Sunshine Landmark Cinema in the SOHO area of New York City.
Regardless of its limited release, the film is a superb and surprising action thriller.!
!Braveheart!
!The classic film about Scottish hero William Wallace, directed and starred in by Mel Gibson. Most
likely you’ve seen the film, which is an utter classic and perhaps a basis for many films coming after
it- Gladiator, The Patriot…!
If you need a good bit of inspiration, get to the speech William Wallace delivers rallying his troops
into battle.!
!Donnie Brasco!
!
A Johnny Depp, Al Pacino team up to recreate the story of undercover
mafia cop Donnie Brasco. The film contains some memorable scenes
including the awkward gift of a lion, and feeding it endless cheeseburgers.
More than anything, Donnie Brasco allows the audience to see a
performance by Johnny Depp which does not capitalize on the “weird
factor”, and is not balls to the wall space cadet inspired. Instead, Depp
plays this one cool, and is a rare glimpse into what the actor can due when
not under the spell of Tim Burton.!
!Films Arriving to Netflix (August 1st)Harry Dalian, Chocolat!
!Chocolat!
!A classic tale of love, lust, and connection all inspired by a little chocolate.!
!Buffalo Soldiers!
!Joaquin Phoenix, Ed Harris play US soldiers participating in criminal
activity at their post in West Germany before the wall falls in 1990.
