'ONE OF THE BEST FILMS OF THE CENTURY' NOW STREAMING

A highly regarded film from 2013 whose fans passionately defend it as both underrated and unmissable is coming to Netflix in the UK in days.

It’s also been officially recognised as one of the best films of the 21st century by the likes of the BBC, the New York Times and Rolling Stone, while The Hollywood Reporter put it as the second-best film made in the past 25 years.

Providing a major breakthrough role for its leading man Oscar Isaac, the period black comedy drama came from the minds of movie master brothers Joel and Ethan Coen.

Between them, the Coen Brothers have amassed a staggering 16 Academy Award nominations (and four wins) for films including Fargo, No Country for Old Men and True Grit.

But it’s Inside Llewyn Davis that will be available to Netflix subscribers in the UK very soon.

It will be added to the streaming service in just over a week on October 1, alongside 2014 apocalyptic horror film The Remaining.

In a recent interview with Metro, Ethan confirmed it was much harder to make a film currently, compared to 20 or 30 years ago – despite all the accolades he has amassed.

‘Yes, with a big exclamation point!’ he responded. ‘It’s certainly harder than when I started, the whole economic climate, the whole movie industry is different.

‘If it’s not a kind of – whatever you want to call it – Marvel movie or something, that they think has a sort of a brand appeal, built-in brand, it’s very difficult to get a movie financed now.’

Inside Llewyn Davis is now streaming on Netflix in the UK.
