It’s Friday! Time to kick back and enjoy the weekend. Looking for something to watch this weekend? Here is the full list of Netflix recommendations from everyone here at French Toast Sunday. Enjoy the Top Picks for 8/20/10:
Watch it Now: Bronson (2008)
Netflix synopsis: Nicolas Winding Refn’s vivid and unflinching biopic delves into the life of Britain’s most notorious prisoner, Charlie Bronson (Tom Hardy) — who’s been jailed for nearly 35 years — and attempts to dissect the real man behind the deranged persona. While Bronson’s primary ambition was to be famous, he became a celebrity of sorts as a criminal who seized myriad opportunities to demonstrate extreme and terrorizing savagery. [Recommended by Marc]
Watch it Now: Jaws (1975)
Netflix synopsis: Director Steven Spielberg virtually invented the summer blockbuster with this white-knuckle adaptation of Peter Benchley’s novel about an insatiable great white shark that terrorizes the townspeople of fictional Amity Island. John Williams’s legendary score punctuates the tension as the police chief (Roy Scheider), an oceanographer (Richard Dreyfuss) and a grizzled shark hunter (Robert Shaw) seek to destroy the bloodthirsty beast.
