The 10 Best Newly Added Movies To Watch On Netflix - May Edition

"I CAN'T DECIDE — SOMEBODY JUST TELL ME WHAT TO WATCH AND PROMISE ME THAT IT WILL BE GOOD."

1. Boys Don't Cry (1999)

Finally, Netflix added "Boys Don't Cry." Homophobia, sexual identity, unconventional love, a rough crowd, violence, and a small, dead-end town in Nebraska — it's brutal and emotional and a masterpiece.

Perfect for a Saturday night spent alone with Cabernet and tears.

2. Paper Moon (1973)

If you thought Arya and The Hound were the greatest Odd Couple out there – then you certainly haven't seen "Paper Moon." A small-time grifter gets saddled with a pint-size partner, played by real-life daughter Tatum O'Neal, and a mad-cap, Depression-era adventure obviously ensues. (If that doesn't convince you, then Madeline Kahn as an exquisitely dumb floozy will.)

Fun fact: Tatum O'Neal won the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for her role at the age of 10 - the youngest competitive Oscar winner in history!

3. Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992)

Sure, you know Gary Oldman as Sirius Black and Commissioner Gordon... but do you remember when he was a hyper-sexual vampire with flowing locks, ridiculous sunglasses, and an obsession with Winona Ryder?

No?

You've got work to do.

4. The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (2007)

Via themoviedb.org

Though this one was added to Netflix in April, we still think it should make it on to your queue this month. After a stroke left him paralyzed from head to toe, Jean-Dominique Bauby must readjust to a life in which he can only communicate by blinking his left eye. To keep himself positive, he writes a memoir — blinking to confirm one letter at a time.

You know, your basic "triumph of the human spirit" tale based on a true story. Bring all of your tissues.

5. Goldfinger (1964)

Via themoviedb.org

You know how your entire life, people have been saying "No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die," and you just laughed along because you had heard it so many times, it's basically the same as knowing where it came from?

Well, YOU'RE WRONG, it's not the same. It came from GOLDFINGER! And now you can watch it and join the human race!

6. Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939)

They added this movie just in time — it's Jimmy Stewart's birthday on May 20th! HOW ELSE ARE YOU GOING TO CELEBRATE?!

7. Rocky (1976)

I'm sure some of you were emailing Netflix every day to add the boxing movie heard 'round the world. Well my friends, that day is here. (Added mid-April).

8. Encounters at the End of the World (2007)

Via bestmoviesbyfarr.com

In case you need a documentary to whip out at parties to prove to people you're a thoughtful and analytic person, Werner Herzog's look into the lives of the researchers choosing to live in Antarctica is incredibly compelling.

So... basically, "March of the Penguins" but about scientists.

9. Starman (1984)

Via themoviedb.org

Do you guys remember "Starman"? With a young Jeff Bridges playing a curious and easygoing ALIEN?! It doesn't seem real, but it is. And Bridges has the Oscar nom to prove it.

Everyone loves a Sci-Fi charmer paired with 80s effects!

10. The Buddy Holly Story (1978)

Via themoviedb.org

A musical bio-pic starring GARY BUSEY.
