Watch on Netflix starting May 1 'Past Lives' Past Lives | Official Trailer HD | A24 - YouTube Watch On "Past Lives" is a semi-autobiographical romance drama starring Greta Lee, Teo Yoo and John Magaro. It was also the directorial debut of writer/director Celine Song and was a smash hit, beloved by fans and critics alike. The movie tells the story of Nora (Lee) and Hae Sung (Teo Yoo), two childhood sweethearts who fall out of touch until Hae Sung arrives in New York to see her one last time. But by this point, Nora is already married to Arthur (Magaro), and despite the joke he makes in the trailer, he's not the "evil white American husband" that would be easy for Nora and viewers to hate. This heartbreaking tale of lost love was one of the best movies of 2023, so don't miss it now that it's finally on Netflix.

Watch on Netflix now 'Turning Point: The Vietnam War' Turning Point: The Vietnam War | Official Trailer | Netflix - YouTube Watch On Netflix's "Turning Point" series of documentary shows has its fans. Even our own Alyse Stanley, who in her own words doesn't normally like a war documentary, has found them enthralling. In past series, the show has tackled the atomic bomb, the Cold War and 9/11. But "Turning Point: The Vietnam War" looks into the most devastating conflict the U.S. has participated in since World War II. The docuseries will examine the conflict and how Vietnam was not just a military disaster but also a political reckoning that forever altered American culture. Director Brian Knappenberger will do this with CBS News archives, Vietnamese footage, and declassified government records. Don't miss this if you're a history buff.

Watch on Netflix starting May 4 'Ocean's Eleven' Ocean's Eleven (2001) Trailer #1 | Movieclips Classic Trailers - YouTube Watch On "Ocean's Eleven" is one of my favorite movies. If I see it's playing on TV, I'll tune in for the entire thing, no matter where in the movie the broadcast is. It's still probably Soderbergh's best movie, even if some of his other work is technically or artistically superior. If you've never seen this movie, a reboot of the 1960 film starring Frank Sinatra, it stars George Clooney as the titular Danny Ocean. He's just got out of prison and reunites with his friend Rusty (Brad Pitt), already set to pull a new job. The job? To rob Terry Benedict's (Andy Garcia) three casinos by hitting their shared vault beneath the Bellagio in Las Vegas. To do this, they'll need to put together a team of the best con men and petty criminals available. Watch on Netflix starting April 23 'Burn After Reading' Burn After Reading Official Trailer #1 - Brad Pitt Movie (2008) HD - YouTube Watch On Speaking of George Clooney and Brad Pitt, this is probably my second favorite movie they've teamed up in. "Burn After Reading" stars Clooney as U.S. Marshal Harry Pfarrer, who is having an affair with Katie Cox (Tilda Swinton), the wife of CIA analyst Osborne Cox (John Malkovich). After Osborne quits his job, Katie secretly files for divorce. However, en route to bringing files burned onto a CD-R to her divorce lawyer, she accidentally loses them at the gym. There, they are discovered by Chad (Pitt) and Linda (Frances McDormand), who dig further and discover a draft of Osburne's memoirs, which the pair thinks are classified CIA records. From here, an insane conspiracy develops, ending with more than a few people dead. But what else would you expect from a black comedy directed by the Coen brothers?
