Looking for something to watch? They’re all highly recommended.

Now that we’re firmly in Oscar season, there are plenty of new films to keep audiences entertained over the coming weeks – we listed our favourites here and here.

With titles like The Shape of Water, The Post, and Three Billboards Outside fo Ebbing, Missouri, yet to hit the cinema, it’s easy to forget that there are also some remarkable TV shows and films that are currently available to watch.

We’ve been very vocal about the brilliance of shows like The Handmaid’s Tale, Game of Thrones and various others (here’s our best of 2017 list) but it’s awards season and there’s no better time to get acquainted with some of the best titles around.

If you’re a Netflix subscriber, all of the following films and TV shows were nominated for a Golden Globe – some even won.

Films

Mudbound

Plot: Set in the rural American South during World War II, Dee Rees’ Mudbound is an epic story of two families pitted against one another by a ruthless social hierarchy, yet bound together by the shared farmland of the Mississippi Delta. Mudbound follows the McAllan family, newly transplanted from the quiet civility of Memphis and unprepared for the harsh demands of farming. Despite the grandiose dreams of Henry, his wife Laura struggles to keep the faith in her husband’s losing venture. Meanwhile, Hap and Florence Jackson – sharecroppers who have worked the land for generations – struggle bravely to build a small dream of their own despite the rigidly enforced social barriers they face. The war upends both families’ plans as their returning loved ones, Jamie McAllan and Ronsel Jackson, forge a fast but uneasy friendship that challenges the brutal realities of the Jim Crow South in which they live.
