The Life Ahead streams November 13th

Netflix has finally released a trailer for upcoming drama movie THE LIFE AHEAD with Sophia Loren and it is very moving indeed. Directed by her son Edoardo Ponti and scheduled for streaming from November 13th, the possible award contender next season is set in seaside Italy, where Italian acting legend Sophia Loren plays a Holocaust survivor with a daycare business who takes in a 12-year-old street kid (Ibrahima Gueye) who recently robbed her. The film is actually a remake of a French foreign language movie Oscar winner from 1977 with Simone Signoret. The film will stream worldwide on Netflix next month. This is Sophia's first movie after a ten year pause. 

The musical starts November 22nd at Netflix

However, after listening to the stories of the local townsfolk, reconnecting with an old love, and accepting the guidance of an actual angel (Dolly Parton), Regina starts to have a change of heart.
