The TV Answer Man – Buy Me a Coffee!

Amazon’s Prime Video today (February 1, 2026) is adding 62 new movies to its streaming lineup. Here are the three to watch, in my humble opinion:

The Big Lebowski (1998)
What Kind of Movie: Black Comedy
Who’s In It: Jeff Bridges, John Goodman, Steve Buscemi
The 1998 cult comedy from the Coen Bros. features an iconic Los Angeles slacker (Jeff Bridges) named ‘The Dude’ who accidentally becomes the focus of a murder investigation.  Only Joel and Ethan Coen could take this farfetched plot and turn it into a cultural mainstay and masterpiece that resonates with multiple generations. The flawless supporting cast includes John Goodman, Steve Buscemi, Philip Seymour Hoffman, David Huddleston, Julianne Moore, and John Turturro as Jesus, a bowler with a strange fetish for his ball.

Fargo (1996)
What Kind of Movie: Drama/Comedy
Who’s In It: Frances McDormand, William H. Macy, Steve Buscemi
The Oscar-winning film from the Coen Brothers stars William H. Macy and Frances McDormand (wife to Joel Coen) who both turn in career performances as a bumpkin car salesman and pregnant police chief respectively. Steve Buscemi and Peter Stomare are equal parts funny and creepy as two kidnappers who bungle the job. This is comedy as black as a 6 a.m. 7-Eleven coffee and no film buff should wait another day before seeing it. Brilliant, brilliant stuff from all involved. You betcha!

La La Land (2016)
What Kind of Movie: Musical/Drama
Who’s In It: Ryan Gosling, Emma Stone
La La Land (pictured above) is guaranteed to lift your spirits and perhaps your feet as well. Directed by Damien Chazelle, the film stars Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone as a struggling jazz pianist and actress respectively in cold-hearted Los Angeles. However, their dreams fuel a zest for life that keeps them on their toes, literally and figuratively. A throwback to the great MGM musicals of the 1940s, La La Land is a feast for the eyes (and the soul) and was wholly worthy of its Academy Award nomination for Best Picture.
