FEATURES Top 8 Films We Can’t Wait to See at Tribeca 2015 Netflix The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby (Ned Benson, http://waytooindie.com/news/now-streaming-movies-and-tv-to-watch-at-home-this-weekend-mar-27/ 1/4 4/10/2015 Now Streaming: Movies and TV to Watch at Home This Weekend – Mar 27 News - Way Too Indie 2014) Though it was a part of Way Too Indie’s most anticipated fall films of 2014, The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby seemed to come and go quickly. Part of this may have been because of a release strategy that may have confused both theater owners and theater goers. The film, which stars Jessica Chastain and James McAvoy, was released as three different films – called Them, Her, and Him – which focused on different perspectives of a failed romance. Many may not have had a chance to see the more REVIEW complete Him/Her in theaters which only played a shorter version of the two films Road Hard combined called Them. Netflix has stepped up to the plate to release all three versions of the film to their streaming service, allowing you to check them all out, compare and contrast. This is another example of Netflix’s ability to offer multiple versions of a film – they previously released the director’s cut for The Act of Killing after the theatrical version had been added to streaming.

Amazon Prime

Arbitrage (Nicholas Jarecki, 2012) REVIEW Flutter One of the most underrated films of 2012, Arbitrage is an awesome throwback thriller. Starring as a wealthy man whose backhanded deeds threaten to come to light after he’s involved in a fatal car accident. Directed by Nicholas Jarecki, brother of , he brings the same level of complex perspectives as works like Capturing the Friedmans and The Jinx. At times throughout the film, your allegiance will shift—we know that Robert Miller is a bad guy, but we nearly want him to get away with it. One of the most entertaining portraits of the recent economic crash, Arbitrage is definitely worth a look.

Fandor Branded to Kill (Seijun Suzuki, 1967) From Fandor’s partnership with the Criterion Collection comes Branded to Kill, an early release from the DVD and Blu-ray collection. This wild Japanese hit man film was a great influence on pulp filmmakers for years to come for its wild violence and unusual characters. Branded to Kill stars the legendary Joe Shishido as the number three hitman in Japan who botches a job and is forced to deal with a cascade of bizarre circumstances. Like many of Fandor’s releases, Branded to Kill is available for a limited time, expriing after Sunday, April 5.

Video On­Demand Welcome to (Abel Ferrara, 2014) Like The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby, master indie filmmaker Abel Ferrara’s newest film release is under a bit of controversy. The film, which premiered at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival, is based on a real-life French sex scandal. After changes were made to secure an R-rating for U.S. distribution, Ferrara apparently did not approve, sending a cease and desist letter to IFC Films. I guess that didn’t work, as the film’s theatrical and VOD release still seem to be happening today—albeit the R-rated version in question. Welcome to New York stars iconic actors Gérard Depardieu and Jacqueline Bisset, and even Ferrara’s later work has been interesting, so hopefully this film will be worth more than its controversy.
