The majority of us have been waiting for the day we leave 2020 behind, and we finally did. Now that 2021 is here and the pandemic is also still here, we have a list of movies that will ensure you have successful movie nights with your friends and family, to give you a bit of a reminder of the life we had before the coronavirus, and to give some hope, love and light.
Project X
To remember the pre-pandemic wild parties
Project X
A “small” party that gets out of hand, 2,000 people and an infinity of screens. An partying perspective that is now completely foreign to us but we can still remember how it looked like in this movie. Produced by the director of The Hangover, Project X follows, camera in hand, the progress of a birthday party that escapes the control of its young organizers and transforms an American residential district into a giant rave-party.
Also:
The Great Gatsby, to hope for a return of the Roaring Twenties in 2021.
Spring Breakers, to explore the depths of American hedonism.
Heartbeats, the 2010 Canadian drama film directed by Xavier Dolan. For its nostalgic vibe, where the bodies are entwined under the neon lights.
Donkey Skin, to imagine yourself queen of the ball.
The Hangover
If you’re missing your group of friends
Five
Samuel, Julia, Vadim, Nestor and Thimothée, a group of long-time friends, want at all costs to live together in a shared apartment. A childhood dream that quickly turns into a source of anguish for the one who can no longer ensure the payment of his share of the rent and then finds himself entangled in his lies. This movie is an opportunity to wish, in 2021, to stop being physically apart from our friends.
Also:
Ocean's 11, to prepare for your next big move in style.
The Hangover (the trilogy), to follow the hilarious misadventures of a quartet of friends.

To prepare for the return of dating
