With COVID-19 weighing down the spirits, everyone is now resorting to Netflix to feel some sort of emotion and/or human interaction. Whether you are watching Netflix through the chrome extension, Netflix Party, or are just with your dog, we have got you covered!
To feel empowered, try watching Ladybird.
Ladybird is a feel-good, teen coming of age movie. The main character, ladybird, is struggling to have a good relationship with her parents and friends, all while trying to find herself before college. Ladybird is the epitome of women’s empowerment and a friendly reminder that women’s empowerment isn’t about being strong all the time; like everyone, it is okay not to be okay and ask for help.
To laugh, we recommend Wine Country and Master of None
Although these movies are vastly different, one thing they have in common is the sense of finding where you belong whether it be in your culture, in your family, or with your friends. Wine Country is essentially all of America’s favorite white female comedians going on a girl’s trip to celebrate their best friend’s birthday. While hanging out, they make memories, bond closer than ever, and drink a little too much. This is DEFINITELY the go-to girls’ night movie!
Master of None is a great movie to binge-watch with your friends, especially if you are having a hard time agreeing on what to watch because of everyone’s diverse show tastes. Master of none is about Dev Patel and his life as a struggling actor. He not only struggles in his career, but he also struggles in his love life, friend-life, and family life.
To watch something wholesome, watch The hundred-foot journey

With the struggle of opening a new restaurant, the owner’s son falls in love with one of the locals and french cuisine. The movie itself is the definition of heart-felt and wholesome.
