The new Netflix releases of April 2023
While there are ups and downs, as with all video streaming services, Netflix always manages to unearth at least one new thing that will keep subscribers on track. And in April 2023, several programs stand out, starting with one of Brian De Palma’s jewels: Scarface. A timeless pop culture reference that has been unofficially adapted by Rockstar Games with its mythical GTA Vice City.
After watching The Life of Tony Montana and listening to the soundtrack on repeat, why not turn to the horror thriller Last Night in Soho d’Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead, Scott Pilgrim…). Despite a certain classicism noted by some, many believe that the director has made a comeback by delivering a film with an inventive form. A quality already detectable in his last feature film Baby Driverwhich was a very successful styling exercise.

Scarface (1er avril)
Already extraordinary in The Godfather, A dog’s afternoon or The hunt (Cruising) the William Friedkin (The Exorcist), Al Pacino literally marked an entire generation with his role as Tony Montana in Scarface. A Cuban gangster, immigrant, who arrives under the palm trees of Miami with a desire for grandeur to escape his condition as a political refugee. A masterpiece that will have influenced cinema, rap or even video games, and a monument of pop culture. In one word: essential.
Last Night in Soho (27 avril)
In Last Night in Soho, Edgar Wright returns to horror but without the over-the-top and very funny side of a Shaun of the Dead. Eloise “Ellie” Turner is passionate about fashion and design, particularly what relates to the 60s. By a mysterious process, she manages to return to the past and meets a singer, Sandie camped by Anya Taylor- Joy (The Ladies Game, Glass…). A movie “carried by a real visual quality, a dark script and two perfect performers” summarized our colleagues from CinéSéries during the release.
