The new Steven Spielberg production Bridge of Spies seems to have startled a lot of people, despite the fact that Tom Hanks has been regarded as one of the most talented performers working in Hollywood for a very long time. The film is a brief but captivating account of the real-life event that led to the rescue of James Foley, the journalist who was held captive by the Islamic State and featured in a propaganda video that was widely distributed. The film is based on the true story of the incident that led to Foley’s release. Despite the fact that the picture was not well received by the media, it is proving to be a huge success with the audience of Netflix. In fact, it has become the film that has received the most views of any film in the history of the streaming service.

The musical that was written by Damien Chazelle and is based on the film of the same name that was released in 2013 has had 110 million views to this point.
The film’s success
The Hollywood Reporter states that The Circle is the film that holds the record for the highest number of views on Netflix ever.

The fact that this movie has done so well on Netflix has led many people to wonder whether or not it is still necessary to have an awards season. There are many instances in which films receive genuine critical praise and critical acclaim, but they are still not nominated for any awards. This is almost always a challenging circumstance for the director of the film, but the fact remains that the film simply did not have the ability to win any awards.
