Netflix plans to remove 16 shows and movies between today and the end of the month. Here are the three you should watch (or re-watch) before they leave, in my humble opinion:

Smile (2022)
Leaving Date: November 14
Sosie Bacon stars as Rose, a therapist whose patient commits suicide during a session after flashing a sinister smile. Rose soon sees other people exhibiting similar characteristics – and that weird smile – leading her to believe that the behavior is contagious and she may be infected. I’ve seen Smile and highly recommend it. It’s a satire of our fears of contagion (particularly in a post-Covid world) disguised as a simple horror film. Very well done.

Jaws (1975)
Leaving Date: November 15
The big fish drama from director Steven Spielberg remains one of the tautest and most suspenseful movies ever made with outstanding performances from Roy Scheider as the town sheriff, Richard Dreyfuss as the marine biologist and Robert Shaw as the crafty (and cranky) boat captain. If you’ve already seen it, rewatch it. I guarantee that you will get hooked all over again. Such a great film!

A Star Is Born (2018) – Pictured Above
Leaving Date: November 8
Bradley Cooper stars (and directs) as an alcoholic country rock musician who falls in love with a young singer, played by Lady Gaga. The remake of the three same-name films carries a surprising pop and pathos thanks to the strong performance of the leads.
