What’s leaving Netflix UK in September / October 2021?
David Farnor | On 23, Sep 2021
While people still navigate their way through the coronavirus pandemic, Netflix UK’s sizeable library of movies and TV shows remains a handy resource for keeping entertained indoors.
But before you start bingeing through its 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:
Eighth Grade – 25th September
Bo Burnham’s brilliant directorial debut captures the pains of growing up in an online age with awkward intimacy.
Three Identical Strangers – 29th September
A feel-good story about triplets separated at birth takes a sinister turn in this compelling documentary.
Verónica (2017) – 30th September
REC director Paco Plaza conjures up fresh terror in familiar tropes with this fast, slick ouija horror.
A United Kingdom – 30th September
A powerful story of romance and race, A United Kingdom is a crowd-pleaser that deserves the biggest crowd possible.
Adaptation – 30th September
Nicolas Cage stars alongside himself in Charlie Kaufman’s deliriously meta comedy about himself trying to adapt a book – while competing with his fictional twin brother.
The Adventures of Tintin – 30th September
This groundbreaking animated blockbuster based on the iconic comic books is an enjoyably old-fashioned romp.
Collateral – 30th September
Tom Cruise and Jamie Foxx go head-to-head in Michael Mann’s blisteringly intense two-hander.
Corpse Bride – 30th September
Tim Burton mixes his Gothic sensibility with stunning stop-motion to spooky effect in this darkly comic tale of a man who finds himself accidentally betrothed to a dead woman.
Happy-Go-Lucky – 30th September
Heartwarming, funny and bursting with kindness. Sally Hawkins shines in Mike Leigh’s character-driven delight.
Hunger (2008) – 30th September
Michael Fassbender delivers an unflinching performance in Steve McQueen’s powerful drama about a hunger strike in a Northern Irish prison.
In the Name of the Father – 30th September
Daniel Day-Lewis stars in Jim Sheridan’s Oscar-nominated drama about Gerry Conlon, a young Irish man living in London who is wrongly sentenced to life in prison with his father after the IRA bombing of 1974. He spends the next 15 years trying to prove his innocence.
Selma – 30th September
David Oyelowo is unrecognisable in Ava DuVernay’s stirring, powerful biopic of Martin Luther King, Jr.
Super 8 – 30th September
JJ Abrams’ deliberately nostalgic sci-fi adventure is as meta as Cloverfield and as moving as The Goonies.
Crimson Peak – 14th October
Everyone will find something to enjoy in this Gothic horror’s richly painted gorgeousness.
The Matrix trilogy – 14th October
Would you take the red pill or the blue pill? The Wachowskis’ sci-fi trilogy is as mind-blowing as you remember.
Centurion – 14th October
Sacrificing character for action, Neil Marshall’s historical thriller is a British B-movie with blockbusting tension.
A Star Is Born (2018) – 10th October
Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga shine in this foot-stomping tearjerker of a musical.
Teachers – 15th October
Channel 4’s 2001 drama, which follows a group of slacker secondary school teachers, starred Andrew Lincoln, a role that gave him his break way before he became Rick Grimes in The Walking Dead. He’s just as charismatic behind a classroom desk.
A Vigilante – 16th October
Olivia Wilda delivers a gruelling, gripping performance in this hard-hitting revenge thriller.
Arctic – 23rd October
Mads leaves it all out on the ice in this chilling, riveting survival thriller.
