THINGS TO WATCH IN ISOLATION!

I am so thankful for all the amazing talents in the world who contribute to the Entertainment industry. If not for the many projects available via Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+, YouTube, (including IGTV) and the rest, there would be little in the way of positive distractions at this time.

I have thoroughly enjoyed being able to watch almost everything on my watch list and wanted to share with you some of the ones I've loved! Be sure to click on each title for more info. In no order of significance…

DISNEY+
Ruby Bridges (factual, historical and empowering).

NETFLIX
Self-Made (based on true events, funny, inspiring).
Coffee and Kareem (super talented cast, great movie).
The Town (emotional rollercoaster fusing love and crime).
Money Heist (a fast, intense political thrill set in Spain!).
The Sun Is Also a Star (a teen romance with thought-provoking narration and a brilliant soundtrack).
Miracle in Cell No. 7 (one that will tug at the heartstrings. It had me weeping!).
Extraction (starring Chris Hemsworth, this action-thriller is a mix of adventure, comedy and a lot of gore. I LOVED it!!).

T.V.
Made in Chelsea (my not so guilty 'reality tv' pleasure since 2011 - it follows the often dramatic lives of wealthy individuals in their 20s and early 30s who live in West London and travel to the most beautiful locations around the world). 
Noughts + Crosses (a well-performed story about a young couple who fight to be together while living in a state divided by colour. It's very powerful!).

In all honesty, I rarely watch television. I occasionally watch Good Morning Britain just to keep up to date with important world events, but, apart from the titles mentioned, I don't watch much else. I find T.V. quite boring these days.

AMAZON PRIME
Hidden Figures (true story, powerful performances, motivational movie).
An Angel Has Fallen (following on from London Has Fallen 2016, and Olympus Has Fallen 2013, this is another gripping action movie!).

YOUTUBE
The Michalaks - mini-films produced by the head of the household, Stefan, which strike an amazing balance between capturing everyday shenanigans and cinematic scenes that serve to stir up the emotions of each viewer in the best possible way. This family is beyond endearing and their content is stunning; often insightful.

Stay home, keep safe. God willing, a better world is just around the corner!

  3. I really enjoyed watching these trailers! I'm especially excited about and interested in "Self Made", as I first became aware of Madam C. J Walker several years back and was very inspired by her story. Some other great picks in there too that I'm looking forward to viewing. I'm soooooo late, but it's all about "Breaking Bad" and "Peaky Blinders" for me right now! Another great blog Charley. Thanks for sharing!xx
