Not all movies on Netflix stay there forever, as licensed titles from studios have an expiration date that may or may not be extended. This differs from Netflix Originals which can stay on the platform indefinitely. That’s why you might consider watching movies that don’t have the “Netflix Original” label before they disappear. Here are some films we suggest streaming over the weekend, followed by a complete list of titles that will be removed from Netflix starting on Oct. 1.
Our top film for the weekend? 3x Oscar-nominated “Boogie Nights” (1997) from director Paul Thomas Anderson is both hilarious and dramatic, starring Mark Wahlberg as adult film star Dirk Diggler, along with an all star cast that includes Burt Reynolds, Julianne Moore, Luis Guzmán, Don Cheadle and John C. Reiily among others.
In comedies you might want to check out “Trading Places” (1983), “Bad Boys” (1995) and “Family Man” (2000). For dramas, watch them again or for the first time: “Full Metal Jacket” (1987), “Life Is Beautiful” (1997), “Red Dragon” (2002), “Life is Beautiful” (1997), and “Eyes Wide Shut” (1999).
