All good things must come to an end. And so it is for these three classic films that will be leaving Netflix at the beginning of April 2018 . . . to make room for some other classics.
Catch ’em while you can!
âCaddyshackâ (1980)
Well over 35 years after its release, this sports comedy still gets laughs, as is considered to be a crude classic. With the legendary Harold Ramis at the helm, and starring Chevy Chase, Rodney Dangerfield, Bill Murray, and a motley crew of recognizable faces from the â80s, itâs the sort of comedy film that they just donât make anymore. And yet, for many younger generations, it remains on the bucket list of films youâve been meaning to see but never got around to. Well… hereâs an excuse to finally scratch it off that list! With the title leaving Netflix imminently, why not watch it now while itâs still just one click away?
âApollo 13â (1995)
Tom Hanks has been called Hollywoodâs historian. Whether acting or producing, heâs played a role in bringing many important moments from American history to life on the big screen. Even amidst his impressive filmography, âApollo 13â stands out. The film explores the ill-fated titular lunar mission and the unbelievable story of how these astronauts got themselves home against astronomical odds. With a stellar cast that includes Hanks, Bill Paxton and Ed Harris, and Ron Howard in the directorâs chair⦠itâs a classic Hollywood drama. So whether itâll be your first viewing or a repeat, why not take a trip into outer space with Tom Hanks and co. while the film is still available?
âThe Shawshank Redemptionâ (1994)
Itâs not every day that one of the greatest films ever made leaves Netflix! But sadly⦠one of these tragic occasions have arrived. For Netflix subscribers, itâs time to say goodbye to Andy and Red, and some of the more unsavory staff members of Shawshank Penitentiary⦠and what better way to send them off after their stint on the streaming service than with one last quality viewing? Directed by the talented Frank Darabont and adapted from Stephen Kingâs novella âRita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemptionâ, this film is a masterpiece of storytelling. No matter how many times youâve seen it, with its challenging subject matter and outstanding performances, the movie never fails to move you.
Let us know if you enjoy them . . . again, or for the first time!
