Netflix snagged a lot of Disney movies to put on instant play!
I’m over here having a field day.
A Cat in Paris is on Netflix!
Meet Dino, a common house cat who lives a double life. He’s the loyal pet of Zoe, a lonely little girl who lives with her busy single mother Jeanne, a police detective. But after sundown when Zoe goes to sleep, Dino sneaks off to accompany debonair cat burglar Nico, and their nightly prowls take them on breathtaking escapades across the rooftops of Paris. Eventually, Zoe discovers what Dino is up to and she too becomes drawn into a thrilling adventure involving jewels, and gangsters, all leading to a nail-biting and acrobatic finale atop the gothic Notre Dame.
I absolutely loved this animated film when I saw it last year at a film festival. Really glad i get to see it again. Beautifully drawn and the landscapes are amazing. Definitely give this a watch during the weekend when you’re free.
Chico & Rita directed by Fernando Trueba and Javier Mariscal is on Netflix instant play and I couldn’t be more thrilled!!
Chico is a young piano player with big dreams. Rita is a beautiful singer with an extraordinary voice. Music and romantic desire unites them, but their journey - in the tradition of the Latin ballad, the bolero - brings heartache and torment.
If you’re a lover of Jazz, music, animation, and great storytelling you will absolutely adore this. Chico & Rita has been on my radar to watch for awhile now. I love that its a Spanish-language animation and the style this entire film has been drawn in is just beautiful. Every scene is just breathtaking. I highly recommend you watch it for not just the eye pleasure, but for the music as well.
