This week, find what to watch on Prime Video whatever your mood: discover a heartbreaking Christian Bale in a little-known role, take part in the perilous missions of Mr and Mrs Smith, go on the adventure of Arrakis with Kyle MacLachlan…
WANT DRAMA – THE MACHINIST
If Christian Bale is famous for his anthology roles in American Psycho, The Prestige or The Dark Knight, he is just as famous for his physical transformations. Ready to build muscle or gain ten kilos to fit his character, the actor did not hesitate to sacrifice his body during the filming of The Machinist, one of his greatest performances, for which he lost… almost a third of its ideal weight!
Prime Video
He plays Trevor, a worker worn out by an alienating job which has made him depressed and seriously insomniac. But for some time now, Trevor’s life has seemed confused: he finds words at home whose meaning he does not understand, confuses the people and faces around him, seems to be pursued… Is this the simple effect of fatigue, or is Trevor being hunted?
The Machinist, inhabited by the heartbreaking performance of an unrecognizable Christian Bale, can be discovered now and exclusively on Prime Video.
DESIRE FOR ACTION – MR AND MRS SMITH
Apparently, Mr. and Mrs. Smith (Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, who met on set) has it all. A charming and popular couple, they seem close and passionately in love. What they don’t know is that once they leave the marital home, both secretly carry out the same activity as hired killers. A difficult secret to accept, especially when the two lovebirds are competing on the same contract…

When love is no longer enough, it’s time to take up arms!
WANT TO FLIPPER – THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT
If The Blair Witch Project appears today in the Pantheon of cult films, it is because it intelligently combined the ingredients necessary to create the ideal horror film: an old amateur camera, young people lost in the forest , surrounded by strange and disturbing elements, and above all the absence of an answer… What happened to Heather, Joshua and Michael, while they were filming a student report on the mysterious Blair witch? Would they have had the misfortune of crossing his path?
WANT TO HAVE FUN – A TALENT IN SOLID GOLD
As parodic as it is intimate, A Talent in Solid Gold tells the daily life of the famous Nicolas Cage (yes yes, the real one!) and his agent Javi (Pedro Pascal). Determined to relaunch his career, Cage agrees to attend the birthday of a billionaire who particularly likes him. But very quickly, the latter turns out to be a dangerous criminal. Will Nicolas Cage live up to his legend?

WANT TO LEARN – THE SOUND OF 007
What do the singers Tom Jones, Adèle, Madonna and the group A-Ha have in common? The most movie buffs among you will have the answer: they have all performed the main theme of one of the opuses of the James Bond saga. Discover the genesis and secrets of these monumental works in The Sound of 007, where music and cinema intertwine more than ever!
WANT CHILL – TWO BROKE GIRLS
On one side, Max (Kat Dennings), a somewhat disillusioned waitress who has never had a lot of money but enough mischief to get by in life. On the other, Caroline (Beth Behrs), a seemingly superficial daddy’s girl, who suddenly finds herself penniless but remains optimistic.
These two broke girls, opposed to everything, will have to work together and share an apartment for better or for worse, while waiting to realize their dreams… Will they succeed? The answer in Two Broke Girls, to discover now and exclusively on Prime Video!
DESIRE FOR ADVENTURE – DUNE
If the Dune saga experienced a real revival in 2021 thanks to the adaptation by Denis Villeneuve, the long-awaited sequel of which will be available in theaters from February, Franck Herbert’s literary fresco had before that been entitled to its share of adaptations . Among them, another by a very great director: David Lynch.
Paul Atreide was played, in place of Timothée Chalamet, by a young Kyle MacLachlan launched on the same quest: to avenge his father, Duke Leto (Jürgen Prochnow), of the cruel Harkonnen (led by… Sting!) and save the desert planet of Arrakis from their yoke.
