Nights of Cabiria is another iconic classic worth watching this week. A poignant drama about the highs and lows of a life lived on the streets, it stars the incomparable Giulietta Masina as the eponymous character, a woman who navigates a world filled with hardship, but also finds moments of beauty in its darkest corners.
If you're in the mood for something a bit more old-school, 'The Barefoot Contessa' is an intriguing film that explores themes of class and social status through the eyes of Ava Gardner's character. With its sophisticated setting and witty dialogue, it offers a glimpse into a bygone era that is both captivating and thought-provoking.
Lastly, there's the powerful drama 'C'mon C'mon', which tells the story of a young boy struggling to cope with his mother's departure.

what drew you guys to watch that one? was it joaquin phoenixs performance or something else entirely?
. I mean, have you seen the view from those NYC gigs? 67% of his concerts are sold out in New York City, and he's performed at over 500 shows since 2014 
. And let's talk about Shu-Fen from "Left-Handed Girl" – did you know that single mothers in Taiwan have a poverty rate of 22%? It's crazy! 
. And I'm curious, what's the average viewership for these new releases on Netflix? 
, its vibe is giving me all these deep thoughts about human dynamics & stuff... I've been feeling really inspired by the way it tackles those complex themes 
. At the same time, 'Left-Handed Girl' sounds super relatable too... a single mom struggling to make ends meet in Taipei is like, totally my spirit animal 
"
it sounds like such an emotional rollercoaster, i need to see how the story unfolds for shu-fen 
i've been hearing great things about ed sheeran's doc too, who wouldn't want to watch him perform live in nyc? 
the way they portrayed Shu-Fen's struggles is so real, like i felt all the emotions too 
. I mean, can you relate to that feeling of not knowing how to cope with life when everything seems too much? The way Joaquin Phoenix and Woody Norman's characters struggle is like a punch in the gut, but in a good way? It's one of those movies that makes you feel all the emotions at once 
. And let's be real, who can resist a good underdog story? 
I'm also curious to see how 'One Shot With Ed Sheeran' turned out - Ed's energy is infectious and I love how music docs can give you a glimpse into someone's life that's not always seen by the public eye. 
i feel like we're both related or something lol anyway gotta give major props to ed sheeran for being so down to earth in that documentary one shot with him was like a breath of fresh air
