August Departures: The New and the (Very) Old

Fallen Angels
Strange goings-on at Prime this month. As mentioned in my August 6 post, a significant portion of this month's arrivals also number among this month's departures. Most of these are Paramount titles, some quite notable—not just for their quality but for their scarcity among the streaming ranks. So now is the time if you've been waiting to check out Ironweed (1987), Mel Gibson's Hamlet (1990), Jane Campion's Portrait of a Lady (1997), the classic Johnny Guitar (1954), or Leo and Kate in Sam Mendes' 1960s drama, Revolutionary Road (2009).

If all those are a bit too highbrow for you, then other one-month stays include the more low-rent (but possibly more pleasurable) 10 to Midnight (1983), Bolero (1984), Hannie Caulder (1972), A Show of Force (1990), and Walking Tall (1973). Meanwhile, your kids (or the one still inside you) will soon be without Race for Your Life, Charlie Brown (1977), The Monster Squad (1987), and the evergreen Charlotte's Web (1973). All of these will be streaming through midnight on August 30 (full list below).
