OTT streaming platform viewers have a number of movies and TV shows to choose from. This week promises to bring an array of exciting titles to streaming services, featuring the newest Marvel superhero film, directorial debut of Academy Award winner Daniel Kaluuya, and a comedy directed by Academy Award winner Taika Waititi.

Ridley Scott's Napoleon, "Waitress: The Musical", "The Marvels" will be available on Rent on Amazon. On Netflix, one can watch "The Kitchen" on January 19. "Dumb Money" will also be available on the streaming giant. "Fast-X" will be released on Amazon Prime.

The best romantic comedy of the year was an 81-minute Finnish film called “Fallen Leaves,” which will be streaming on MUBI on January 19. Director Aki Kaurismäki points his lens towards an alcoholic construction worker, Holappa (Jussi Vatanen) and a supermarket employee, Ansa (Alma Pöysti) who has just been sacked. Their surroundings are bleak, but their awkward courtship is anything but. AP film writer Jake Coyle named “Fallen Leaves” his No. 1 of 2023 and wrote in his review that “short, sweet and utterly delightful, (‘Fallen Leaves’) is the kind of movie that’s so charming, you want to run it back the moment it’s over.”


Fashion model Bethann Hardison, now 81, looks back at her five decades as a Black woman in the industry in a documentary she co-directed with Frédéric Tcheng, “Invisible Beauty,” which begins streaming on Hulu on Jan. 18. Hardison famously participated in the 1973 “Battle of Versailles” fashion show and later founded coalitions to encourage more diversity in high fashion. “Bethann’s legacy is undeniable,” Tcheng told the AP in an interview last year. “She’s really changed the way fashion looks. She singlehandedly led the industry to really change the way they thought about racial diversity and integrated the modeling industry. And she went way beyond that. Now she’s working with designers and just creating community at every stage of her life.”
