FILMS TO WATCH
FROM HOME
Streaming movies will be the norm for a little while longer, and although nothing quite beats watching a great film on a huge screen with a bucket of popcorn and an icey drink, you can still make these treats at home while catching one of these streamable films. COMPILED BY MARISA CUTILLAS
HONEY BOY
A biographical film written and directed by Shia LaBeouf, Honey Boy starts in the actor’s childhood, when he worked long days to fend for his family. Shia has to cope with a charismatic, yet abusive dad – a Vietnam vet who once pointed a gun at his son while having a war flashback. The film is comical and tragic all at once, with LaBeouf admitting he wrote the script while residing in a mental institution. He had just been diagnosed with PTSD and through his writing, he sought to uncover the reasons why. VIEW IT ON: AMAZON PRIME
