As the UK continues to navigate its way through the Covid-19 pandemic, Amazon Prime Video’s sizeable library of movies and TV shows is a useful resource for keeping entertained indoors. But before you start bingeing through the line-up, don’t miss out on catching up with some old and new gems before their rights expire.

This is your last chance to stream the following with Amazon Prime UK:

Master and Commander: The Far Side Of The World – 21st May

Road to Perdition – 22nd May

Tom Hanks, Daniel Craig and Paul Newman are sublime in Sam Mendes’ brooding yet beautiful moral tale of fathers and sons.

Jon Turteltaub’s 1995 gem sees Sandra Bullock step into a leading role as a Chicago everywoman who is mistaken for being engaged to a guy she fancies on the train (Peter Gallagher). After saving his life, he winds up in a coma – and his family immediately invite her into the fold. Enter the guy’s charming, suave and suspicious older brother (Bill Pullman)…

All the Money in the World – 28th May
