One of the Top 10 Netflix movies globally is 'The Weekend Away.' It's actually been a Top 10 film for three weeks, but has terrible reviews.
Here’s Netflix’s logline for the title. “A weekend getaway to Croatia goes awry when a woman is accused of killing her best friend and her efforts to get to the truth uncover a painful secret.” And while that might sound a little reminiscent of the Amanda Knox situation — no, this is not a true story. It’s based, as we said, on Alderson’s novel, which she wrote after taking a trip with friends.
Leighton Meester leads a cast here that also includes Christina Wolfe, with the production directed by Kim Farrant. To a certain extent, this movie and the response to it remind me of a recent episode of the podcastMatt Belloni. That episode was all about how strange Netflix’s original movie strategy feels, and if you stop and think about it that makes a lot of sense.
