It will be a movie that will fly under the radar, despite a 100 percent score from critics, but Netflix is lately offering a new top-notch movie, a movie that doesn’t appear in the top 10, probably due to its subject matter and lack of of awareness on this topic.
This film is called Daughters, a documentary focused on the Date with Dad program, where women come to the criminal to see their father and it is more than a simple visit, it is a small party at a time when many criminals have stopped enter. the person visits completely. Favor video calls or phone calls, at best.
Daughters premiered on August 14 and racked up 43 reviews, far more than some Netflix originals, and maintained a certified fresh score and the best for Rotten Tomatoes.
The fact that it is rarely seen possibly has something to do with Netflix’s set of tips rules. It took about five scrolls through Netflix’s “New” segment to locate it, and of course, Netflix doesn’t show review scores, so there’s no indication of how smart it is. And I guess most people’s set of rules of advice doesn’t revolve around “documentaries about women visiting their father in prison. “
This is not an undeniable story that makes us feel good. The daughters have confused reactions to their parents and the film does not hide it. Although this is a documentary and not a fun blockbuster to watch over the weekend, it’s definitely worth watching. As of now, the full list of the 10 most sensible videos in which Daughters have not been discovered after 3 days is as follows:
So, yes, there are a lot more mainstream festivals there, but maybe highlighting Girls like this can make it more watched. If it’s that good, we might even expect an Oscar nomination in the documentary category later this year, but we’ll see, it’s still a little early to tell. And yet, with several dozen reviews, we rarely see scores as high as this one.
When I have time this weekend or next, I’ll give you a watch based on the praise you receive, and while Netflix doesn’t seem to need to sell it to me directly. It’s a shame because it turns out that he deserves better.
Update (8/19): Well, I’d like to go through Netflix’s top 10 list and see if this movie has raised its profile. There’s a new movie at the bottom of the list. They are girls. It’s Minion. Oh.
I read more about the film before seeing it and there are some interviews with co-directors Natalie Rae and Angela Patton. Here’s Rae after a performance at the August Academy in Beverly Hills:
Netflix bought the film after winning the Festival Favorite and U. S. Documentary Audience Awards. And now they need him to be an Oscar contender when the time comes, which is on the right track. Here comes Rae again.
Daughters is streaming now.
