Before you start bingeing through Netflix’s new originals, don’t miss out on catching up with some other gems before their rights expire and they head to another service, or just disappear into the digital ether.

This is your last chance to stream the following on Netflix UK:

Widows (2018) – 29th November

Steve McQueen’s character-driven heist flick grounds its genre thrills with high stakes and real heft.

8 Mile – 30th November

Lose your in Curtis Hanson’s thoughtful exploration of a city and a subculture.

In Bruges – 30th November

Martin McDonagh’s darkly funny crime thriller is warped entertainment of the highest order.

Nocturnal Animals – 30th November

Tom Ford’s tale-within-a-tale is a dark, sinister, strangely mesmerising thriller.

Kicking and Screaming – 1st December

Noah Baumbach’s debut is a witty not-coming-of-age story set among arrested college graduates.

Bodies Bodies Bodies – 6th December

When a group of 20-year-olds plan a party at a family mansion, a game turns deadly as backstabbing runs rife. Horror.

Voltron: Legendary Defender – 6th December

Netflix’s reboot of the 1980s anime (which sees five unsuspecting teens transported from Earth into the middle of a sprawling intergalactic war, where they become pilots for five robotic lions) might be the best thing to happen to cartoons since The Legend of Korra.

The Guest – 11th December

Dan Stevens is brilliantly charismatic in this fun retro thriller.

Boyz n the Hood – 14th December

John Singleton’s 1991 coming-of-age drama remains a prescient, heartbreaking tale of lost lives and potential.

Emma (1996) – 17th December

From Gwyneth Paltrow’s meddling matchmaker to Jeremy Northam’s broodingly obvious suitor, Douglas McGrath’s 1996 adaptation of Jane Austen’s classic is a pitch-perfect rendition of the author’s irony-laden humour.
