Big Ones on Netflix this July

dyen now that Succession is over? Well then! Why not revisit one of his best roles, that of Mr Darcy in Joe Wright’s swooning adaptation of Jane Austen’s Pride And Prejudice? Can lowerclass Elizabeth Bennet (Keira Knightley) be with uber-rich Mr. Darcyy (Macfadyyen)? Customs of the time would say no, but customs be damned! is adaptation, is rich and funny and so damn romantic that it’ll have you sighing dreamily at every turn.

A bonus is that Donald Sutherland shows up and does an accent, sort of! It feels like the time when movies like this could come out, hit cinemas, and nd audiences long gone, and if they made this today it would go right to Net ix. So I guess it’s sort of ironic that the lm is indeed headed to stream on Net ix in July.

Paul Feig’s Bridesmaids is one of the most memorable comedies from the 2010s. It’s a holdover from another time — a time when a big comedy could go to cinemas and haul in big box o ce in the process.

In Bridesmaids, Kristen Wiig is Annie, who is set to be the Maid of Honour at the wedding of her best friend, Lillian (Maya Rudolph). But planning the wedding will not be easy, and a comedy of errors ensues that threatens both the relationship between these two life-long friends and the wedding itself.

Rose Byrne, Wendi McLendon-Covey, Ellie Kemper, Melissa McCarthy, and Chris O’Dowd round out the cast, and everyone here — especially McCarthy, who landed a Best Supporting Actress Oscar nomination for her work here — is ring on all cylinders.
