Yet another wild, wet day, making me feel like a prisoner. There’s nothing on television this evening. Can anyone suggest a film I might enjoy? I have Netflix and Prime. NB I don’t like horror.

I dunno...some older ones but you have probably seen them already.

Netflix:
The Dark Tower (Idis Elba)
The Changeling
The Secret Garden
The Quiet Place (not a horror but dystopian)

Amazon:
A Very Long Engagement (English Subtitled)
Capernaum
The Salesman (might be a bit slow at first)
Twister (always worth a 2nd (or 10th) watch
Fisherman's Friends
Green Book
Black Book
Red Dog: The Early Years

Hope you find something you like :)

Good ideas, thank you! I loved the book of A Very Long engagement so I might give that a go. Not sure about The Secret Garden; my favourite book as a child so I'm very fussy about how it's treated!

I don't know if Netflix offers the same films in the UK as in the Netherlands, but I have Marriage Story (with Scarlett Johansson) and Late Night (with Emma Thompson) on my to-watch list.

I think I might enjoy these, so maybe you might too :)

Thank you!
