As we head into 2021 with hope for a better year, we can always count on Netflix to keep us entertained with hours of refreshing and engaging original content and fan favorites. From TIFF picks like
Pieces of a Woman and
Penguin Bloom, to favorites like
The Departed and
Originals
One of my favorite films at TIFF 2020 was
Pieces of a Woman (Jan. 7), starring Vanessa Kirby and Shia LaBeouf. Martha (Kirby) and Shawn (LaBeouf) are eagerly expecting their first baby. They have planned a home birth and are prepared to bring their first born child into the world. However, complications arise when the midwife can’t find the baby’s pulse, sending the couple spiraling after they lose their child. Click here to read a spoiler-free mini review.
