With temperatures dropping and the holiday season right around the corner, streaming boosts are all but guaranteed in November. Netflix is diving head first into the Christmas season with the launch of several original holiday movies, but the streamer is also getting a jump on Oscar season with the launch of international awards season hopefuls such as “Possible Love” and “Gentle Monster.” Netflix will also be the streaming home for Chris Rock’s “Misty Green,” which launched at the Toronto International Film Festival in September to instant Oscar buzz for breakout star Rosalind Eleazar.

“Misty Green” is not the only A24 movie that should attract strong viewership on streaming this month. The Dominic Sessa-starring Anthony Bourdain coming-of-age dramedy “Tony” launches on HBO Max right before Thanksgiving after a sturdy box office run over the summer. Netflix, meanwhile, is offering up Peter Berg’s harrowing and inspirational war drama “The Mosquito Bowl” as its big original offering for Thanksgiving weekend.

Check out a full rundown below of the biggest movies streaming in November.

  A24’s Anthony Bourdain biopic “Tony,” starring “The Holdovers” breakout Dominic Sessa as the chef and cultural icon, was a modest summer box office hit with nearly $20 million worldwide. The indie coming-of-age drama now arrives on HBO Max just in time for Thanksgiving. Variety’s review praised Sessa for giving a “movie-star performance” and heralded the movie for having “the enchanted spirit of discovery that recalls ‘Adventureland’ and the films of Richard Linklater.”
