As we settle into 2022 with the pandemic still going strong, it is an excellent reason to stay inside in binge. Technically speaking, it is your civic duty.
L'OFFICIEL rounds up some oldies, new films, television, and foreign dramas to satisfy your binging needs. It is time to gear up for staying in, grab a remote, a few subscriptions, some fuzzy loungewear, and settle in.
If Hulu, Netflix, Amazon Prime, HBO Max, or Disney+ aren't doing it for you, head over to Sundance Film Festival to stream this year's line-up of phenomenal indie films.
