Tinder Swindlers, murder, and yes, food. So much food.
The best of Netflix's slate of documentaries provide crucial perspectives on our weird world. Though if we're being honest, it can be hard to parse through the annals of Netlfix's infamous algorithm to find which films are worth your time. Is it finally time to watch Seaspiracy (and maybe swear off fish from your diet) or is it time to rev your metaphorical engine and cue up the Formula 1-focused Schumacher? Perhaps it's time to scale the highest mountains of the world, all from the comfort of your couch. To help you out, we've narrowed down the list of the best documentaries on Netflix, no matter if you're looking to expand your mind or your true crime trivia knowledge. The collection, anchored by the tagline "Play in the Open," features four iconic pieces with Bembury's signature aesthetic twist. Today's zipper-front sweatshirts won't make you look like an obnoxious tech bro—so long as you pick the right one.  Top Gun and ER star Anthony Edwards is older now. Goose and Dr. Greene and Gilbert from Revenge of the Nerds all turn 60 this year. And Edwards has been gone for a while; he stepped back in the early aughts to raise his kids, and then again a few years ago to heal from a trauma he'd endured in his youth, a situation he revealed publicly in 2017. That process has led him back to the thing he's known the longest, which is acting. "It's funny how this thing that gave me such joy when I was a kid, being in the theater and working with people has really been a through-line to help me through everything." He's back in a couple of timely projects: Inventing Anna, out today on Netflix, about the story of New York grifter Anna Delvey, and WeCrashed, Hulu's take on the creators of WeWork. Processing his own trauma has also made him an activist; through his non-profit organization 1 in 6, he can use his familiarity and charm to connect with and help heal fellow survivors of sexual abuse. "My wife and I talk about this a lot," he says. "After a while, you learn to use your tricks for good." It's time to invest in a solid pair of shades. Start here. Chocolate and flowers are classic—but not exactly original. I don't know who all the cynical and heartless people are who have pushed Herschel Walker into a race for the United States Senate. (I know El Caudillo del Mar-a-Lago endorsed him, but the latter's cynicism and heartlessness is hardly worth mentioning at this point.) Walker was a tremendous athlete. He also is a man who quite publicly has battled mental illness almost his entire adult life. Even if that weren't the case, Walker doesn't belong in the United States Senate. And now, because this is what happens when you run for office, all Walker's private struggles are coming out as news fodder. |
