The Hundred-Foot Journey (2014)

Genre: Family, Animated, Superhero
Runtime: 122 Minutes

There’s been plenty of movies in recent years with Brits traveling to India for movies and this 2014 hit from Disney does exactly that.

Helen Mirren is the big draw in this movie which was nominated for a Golden Globe. It’s about a family who leaves India for France to start a restaurant.


Agatha and the Truth of Murder (2018)

Runtime: 92 Minutes
IMDb Score: 6.5/10

Looking for a British period drama to get through the cold? Then this new title will whisk you back to the 1920s to help a young Agatha Christie solve a real-life murder.

The production is very good considering this was a TV movie and features an impressive British cast comprised of both debut and stars you may recognize from other British titles.


I Dream of Dance (2017)

Genre: Music Documentary
Runtime: 106 minutes
IMDb Score: 9.3/10

Netflix has added a few dance documentaries in recent times and this one has been highly rated by reviewers.

Here’s how the documentary is described:

“A legendary dance teacher transforms the lives of the kids she teaches, inspiring them to overcome obstacles, perfect their craft, and compete for a chance to claim the title of Top Teen dance group in North America.”

The Gentlemen Driver (2018)

Genre: Documentary
Runtime: 83 minutes

This documentary from last year sets out to highlight the lives of four individuals who both run successful businesses while also participating in some of the biggest car racing events in the world.

Don’t worry if you’re not a car buff – it’s perfectly accessible and focuses on the drive of the four drivers as opposed to the technical sides of their racing careers.
