I am looking to stream a movie this evening, either on Netflix or Prime. I like drama, crime, thrillers and comedies. The comedies can be quirky, like “Little Miss Sunshine” and “Fargo.”
I am not a big fan of horror movies or sappy love stories. Dramatic love stories like “A Star is Born” are ok.
Do you have any recommendations?

Does Netflix supporr older movies?
Ok, search on Netflix if these come out:
- They Live By Night (romance/crime)
– Odd Man Out (crime/thriller)
– Night and the City (crime/thriller)
– Night of the Hunter (thriller/drama, especially when it involves children)
Late Night is on my list, good reviews.
A Simple Favor was kind of fun, but odd.
Ladies in Lavender is really excellent, Maggie Smith and Judi Dench, if you like them together.
Oh God NOT “The Hateful Eight!”
Bringing Down the House.
A Joyful Noise.
Kickass. A non-super hero movie.
Breakdown with Kurt Russell.
Ghostwriter with Ewan McGregor ( very highly recommended ) Great script and direction.
ExMachina
Panic Room with Jodie Foster.
The Cell with Jennifer Lopez
The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
White House Down with Channing Tatum and Jamie Foxx – Tons of action
What did you end up watching, @jca2?
I was looking at the suggestions from the posts prior to watching, which was around 10 o’clock. I was googling to see what struck me, and I was also looking at movies by some favorite actors, like Robert DeNiro, Julianne Moore, Cate Blanchett, etc.
I was looking at Amazon Prime suggestions by genre, and looking at the suggestions from the Jellies above. a few times I came across this movie, so I looked at the description and went for it.

@jca2 I think I saw that years ago.
I hadn’t heard of that one. Safe to sat you’d recommend it?
@SEKA: Yes, it was interesting. It was a documentary, although they used actors and shot it to look like home movies for parts of it. I like documentaries (forgot to mention that in my question details).
How did your movie night go? I didn’t expect you to choose a documentary for a movie night :P
It was pretty good, @Mimishu1995. I shut the computer off about halfway through, and then watched the rest of it Sunday morning. So it was “Movie Night, Movie Morning.” hahaha
Yeah, I like documentaries as long as it’s a subject i’m interested in, for example culture, families, crime, sometimes celebs if it’s not someone stupid like the Kardashians.
I never think “I need to watch a documentary tonight” but often find that I do enjoy one every now and then when faced with watching it. Glad you enjoyed
Trivia. Sarah Polley was the child actress in The Adventures of Baron Munchausen film by Terry Guilliam.
