There's no better time of year to catch up unhurriedly with the most interesting titles of 2021: just choose from the rich catalog of the streaming platform
During the Christmas vacations we finally have time to rest, to spend time with loved ones and above all to catch up with the best movies of the year that's coming to an end and that we still hadn't had time to see. Amazon Prime Video has an excellent list of titles to start with.
On the streaming platform there are many films released years ago, but now become true classics of their genre: it is always a pleasure to see them again, alone or in company. There is no shortage, however, also new proposals released in 2021 and also original productions or exclusive to Amazon. It's worth scrolling through this interesting list, then, to choose which film of the moment to spend the afternoon or evening with, perhaps eating a bowl of popcorn (or, given the period, yet another slice of panettone!). Here are some of the titles recently released on Prime Video.
Queenpins - The Coupon Queens
The protagonist of this unusual comedy is a bored and frustrated suburban housewife named Connie (played by Kristen Bell) who, along with her ambitious friend JoJo (Kirby Howell-Baptiste), turns a hobby into a multimillion-dollar counterfeit coupon racket. The film, inspired by a true story, runs an hour and 50 minutes.
Cinderella
We all know the story of Cinderella, but it's nice to see it again in this modern musical that revisits the classic fairy tale in a bold way. The protagonist is Camila Cabello: the young woman has big dreams and, with the help of her Fabulous Godmother, she does everything she can to make them come true. Idina Menzel, Minnie Driver, Nicholas Galitzine and Pierce Brosnan also star in the film, which lasts one hour and 52 minutes.
