By There’s a giant selection of content to stream on Netflix this week, but quite a bit of it is TV shows, and many have been listed in the past, meaning they really just added some new episodes. Feels a bit like cheating, I think, but there’s still plenty of great stuff to watch, for once. Why can’t every week offer this much new stuff?
Here’s a quick rundown of films you might care about (some of which are essential viewing!): About Schmidt, Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Ghoulies, King Kong (1976), Midnight Cowboy, Once Upon a Time in the West, The Perfect Host, The Polar Bear King, Poltergeist II, Super Troopers, and Tron: Legacy.
