5 Movies To Watch On Netflix Right Now!
YouTube

You have your snacks, blanket, and are snuggling up with your boo (or dog I don't judge) but you have no idea what to watch. Netflix is fantastic, but I do find myself often struggling with what to watch. Since you're already all snuggled up and ready to go, I compiled a short list of some of my recent favorites on Netflix. Go watch them before they get replaced!

1. Tallulah


Genre: Drama/Comedy

Cast: Ellen Page, Allison Janney, Tammy Blanchard, Evan Jonigkeit

Vagabond Tallulah "rescues" a baby from a rich irresponsible mother. She brings her to her boyfriend's mother who mistakes the child as their own. (Witty and sweet, has major indie vibes if you're into that.)

2. The Overnight


Genre: Mystery/Comedy

Cast: Adam Scott, Taylor Schilling, Jason Schwartzman,

A new couple moves to LA and meets eccentric friends that invite them for pizza and give them a night to remember. (This movie is SO weird, watch it with an open mind. It's a journey, you'll be exhausted after. Plus, Piper is in it.)

3. The Invitation

Genre: Horror/Drama

Cast: Logan Marshall-Green, Tammy Blanchard, Mike Doyle

A man gets invited to a dinner party by his ex wife and her new husband, and he's suspicious of their dinner intentions. (I always guess endings, BUT you will not see this one coming. Unnerving.)

4. Hush


Genre: Horror

Cast: Kate Siegel, John Gallagher

A young deaf author living alone in the woods navigates surviving the night when a crazed masked killer shows up at her window. (One of the best horror movies I've seen in a long time. The transitions from audio to nothing is perfect.)

5. American Beauty

Genre: Drama, Romance

Cast: Kevin Spacey, Wes Bentley, Mena Suvari, Allison Janney

An introspective look into the nuclear family you think you know. (An oldie but a goodie. It starts out slow, but the ending is crazy. If you figure out the rose petal symbolism, extra credit!)

BONUS

The Shallows

This one is not on Netflix yet, but you need to watch. Blake Lively is exceptional.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
