April had some hidden movie gems that deserve attention, including:

– “The Beast”: A haunting genre-bender set in different timelines in French film.
– “Hundreds of Beavers”: A dialogue-free romp featuring a hilariously circular plot involving – you guessed it – hundreds of beavers, currently streaming on Hoopla and available to rent or purchase on PVOD platforms.
– “The Sympathizer”: Directed by Park Chan-wook and based on a Pulitzer Prize-winning Vietnamese text, this film stars Robert Downey, Jr. playing several different characters and streams on Max every Sunday.

These films are worth checking out if you’re in the mood for something different and off the beaten path.
