Make way for the great crossover of the summer on Prime Video! On the program for this month of August, the Indiana Jones saga, the comedy Didier by Alain Chabat, or even a powerful series mixing female emancipation and baseball. Let’s go !
THE UNAVOIDABLE
Indiana Jones Integral – Monday, August 1
A hat, a whip, a scar on the chin: you recognized it, Indiana Jones, the most famous archaeologist of cinema, puts down his suitcases on Prime Video! The platform honors the mythical character embodied by Harrison Ford, by offering from August 1st the 4 masterpieces of Steven Spielberg.
Through a saga that has become a classic of the 7th art, Indy takes us on his hunt for legendary artifacts around the world. In the footsteps of the Holy Grail, the Ark of the Covenant or the Crystal Skull, from the Peruvian jungle to the mountains of Nepal via the Jordanian temples, all terrains are conducive to ever more epic adventures… while waiting for the arrival of a 5th film, scheduled for 2023! Papalapaaa pa pala…
Thirteen Lives – Friday, August 5
Thirteen Lives, a feature film that traces a story that moved the whole planet in 2018, can be found from August 5 on Prime Video. We discover the perilous rescue of a team of young footballers trapped in a Thai cave after the sudden rise of the waters. Dispatched from all over the world, the divers face a puzzle whose outcome could well turn out to be tragic.
To bring this powerful and breathtaking drama to the screen, Ron Howard (Da Vinci Code, Solo: A Star Wars Story…) called on a 5-star cast: Viggo Mortensen, Colin Farrell and Joel Edgerton, just that!
A League of Their Own – Friday, August 12
On August 12, a brand new Amazon Studios series, A League of Their Own, hits the platform. With World War II in full swing and debauchery of America’s athletes, the country’s most gifted female baseball players seize their chance to live out their dream of going pro.
Carson (Abbi Jacobson), Greta (D’arcy Carden), Max (Chanté Adams) and their colorful team must carve out a place for themselves in a changing society, between sexism and ambient segregation. Through 8 episodes, this beautiful series is a remake of the film An extraordinary team of 1992, in which Tom Hanks gave the reply to Madonna and Geena Davis.
HIGHLIGHTS
Last Seen Alive – Monday August 1st
Gerard Butler (300) and Jaimie Alexander (Thor: Love And Thunder) star in Last Seen Alive, a nervous and well-crafted thriller to discover from August 1st on Prime Video. As their marriage breaks down, Will and Lisa stop to fill up on gas. In the blink of an eye, the latter disappears, and everything suggests that the future ex-husband has committed the irreparable…
Didier – Monday August 1st
In 1997, Alain Chabat directed his very first feature film, Didier, which won the César for Best First Film the following year. In this totally absurd comedy, the very late Jean-Pierre Bacri agrees to keep Didier, a friend’s labrador, but he suddenly turns into a human being. The hilarious face to face between the two actors, full of cult lines, can be discovered now on the platform… “We don’t feel people’s ass!”
Romulus – Friday, August 26
Before the empire, there was a city. Before the city, there was Remus and Romulus. The twin brothers, legendary founders of the Roman city are at the center of Romulus, an epic Italian series to be found from August 26 on Prime Video.
In order to offer a total immersion to the spectators, a very particular care was brought to the dialogues in Latin, which required the intervention of expert linguists on the writing and the shooting. Matteo Rovere, creator of the series and passionate about this period, had already made a film on the same subject in 2018.
The Samaritan – Friday, August 26
If Sylvester Stallone is honored by Prime Video with the arrival of the Rambo saga on August 9, it is on the 26th that the Hollywood star holds the poster of a brand new action film: The Samaritan.
He embodies a superhero who pretends to be dead, but forced out of retirement by a young neighbor… because a new super villain, played by the Dane Pilou Asbaek, threatens the city. At 76 years old, Stallone is still badass!
