‘Some Like it Hot’

(1959)

Starting things off strong with an all-time comedic classic is Some Like It Hot. Easily one of the funniest films ever made, Some Like It Hot has stood the test of time and then some. Directed by legendary filmmaker Billy Wilder and featuring a trio of stars including Hollywood icon Marilyn Monroe and comedic duo Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon, the film is a brilliant satire on the life and politics of the 1920s Prohibition era. At the center are musicians Joe (Tony Curtis) and Jerry (Jack Lemmon, who, in an attempt to escape the law and the mob, put on some dresses and wigs and put on some dresses to join an all-female band.

Some Like it Hot will be available to stream on Prime Video on Wednesday, May 1.

‘The Idea of You’

(2024)

One of the biggest original movies coming to Prime Video this month, The Idea of You, tells a somewhat unconventional love story. Single mother Solène (Anne Hathaway) is starting to feel lost in the world until she has a chance encounter with a young boy band member named Hayes Campbell (Nicholas Galitzine). She doesn’t think much of it after meeting him at one of his concerts, but Solène is shocked when Hayes shows up at her art gallery one day. Some may criticize the couple for their age difference, with Solène being forty and Hayes being twenty-four, but that doesn’t stop their whirlwind romance from swirling.

The Idea of You will be available to stream on Prime Video on Thursday, May 2.

‘American Fiction’

(2023)

One of 2023’s best films, American Fiction is a brilliant, hysterical, and heartbreaking look into the state of modern storytelling, particularly when it comes to telling black stories. Thelonious ‘Monk’ Ellison (Jeffrey Wright) does not write about racial issues in his many novels, but the publishers he’s pitching seem to only be interested in stereotypical stories about the black experience. It’s a creatively stunting experience, but then tragedy strikes Monk’s family. To vent his frustrations with the world, Monk writes one of those books as a joke under a pseudonym, only for that to become his most successful published work ever.

American Fiction will be available to stream on Prime Video on Tuesday, May 14.

‘BlacKkKlansman’

(2018)

On the same day, American Fiction hits Prime Video, another acclaimed Oscar-winning drama about race relations in America will arrive with BlacKkKlansman. Widely considered to be Spike Lee‘s best film since Do the Right Thing, BlacKkKlansman tells the incredible true story of how a black man infiltrated the Ku Klux Klan. Up-and-coming police officer Ron Stallworth (John David Washington) successfully dupes the KKK, including their infamous leader David Duke (Topher Grace), into thinking that he’s a willing recruit to their racist cause. With him providing the voice over the phone and his partner, Flip Zimmerman (Adam Driver), functioning as his in-person double, Ron Stallworth uncovers a horrifying conspiracy being perpetrated by one of the country’s most notorious hate groups.

BlackKklansman will be available to stream on Prime Video on Tuesday, May 14.

‘Creed’

(2015)

Creed isn’t just a great Rocky sequel. It’s quite possibly the best entry in the entire Rocky franchise. A bold statement to be sure, but the journey Adonis Creed (Michael B. Jordan) embarks on to become a skilled boxer in his own right breaths new life into a long-dormant franchise. The film follows the son of the late Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers) as he sets out to become a respected fighter in the boxing world, with the help of Apollo’s arch-rival turned best friend, Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone).

Creed will be available to stream on Prime Video on Thursday, May 16.

‘The Boys in the Boat’

(2023)

The Boys in the Boat is an uplifting true story of an underdog group of Olympic athletes amid the shadows of World War II and The Great Depression.

Despite near-impossible odds, the team’s grit and determination led to them making it to the 1936 Olympics, where they’d hopefully win far more than just a gold medal.
