If ever there was a film director that has created endless, unforgettable, surreal images in cinema it's Jean Cocteau. Take for example his film Orphee loosely based on the story of Orpheus, an incredibly strange journey into a dark, twisted world created by Cocteau. I wasn't too sure what was happening half the time but the images and story structure here are remarkably done, so's the crisp black and white cinematography. Not a movie for all tastes but a real treat for cinephiles.

Under Lin, the quality of Netflix's movies got worse. The Lin era was defined by mid-budget, algorithm-friendly fare and a wobbly relationship with the filmmakers who actually gave Netflix its prestige.
