Netflix fans have just 7 days to watch highest rated Rotten Tomatoes movie ever
One of the highest-rated movies of all time is about to leave Netflix in just a few weeks - so movie fans need to make sure they fit this one in before it's gone for good
You won't want to miss this perfect scoring movie before it's gone from Netflix - and you haven't got long left to watch this one, because it's going to be removed from the streaming service on June 30.
Managing to snag the elusive 100 percent score on movie review accumulator Rotten Tomatoes, Leave No Trace follows a father and daughter living deep in the forest, relying on survival skills to make it through - before they are dragged back into the real world with a jolt after being spotted by a member of the public.
The father Will, played by Ben Foster, suffers from PTSD after serving in the armed forces, and he and his daughter Tom - played by Thomasin McKenzie - struggle to adapt to normal life.
The film follows the twists and turns of their journey after being discovered by authorities living off the grid, exploring their relationship and love itself, without ever becoming overly sentimental - watch the trailer below.
The movie is leaving Netflix on 30 June - so you only have a week to heat up some popcorn and fire this one up, but you are unlikely to regret taking the time and spending an evening dedicated to watching this one.
Directed by Debra Granik, Leave No Trace was the hotly anticipated follow-up to Winter's Bone, which starred Jennifer Lawrence in her breakout role, and was released eight years before in 2010.
In between Granik scored another perfect 100 on Rotten Tomatoes for her documentary Stray Dogs, about dog-lover, motorbiker, and veteran Ron Hall.
The elusive 100 percent approval rating doesn't come along very often, only 68 films can claim the honour - and when you think about how many movies are released in the era of streaming, it makes the achievement seem all the more impressive.
Two offerings from 2024 have made the list, All We Imagine as Light by Payal Kapadia, and Wallace and Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl.
Other famous movies that have managed a perfect score include 12 Angry Men, Toy Story, Two Story Two, Singin' in the Rain, Before Sunrise, Cool Hand Luke, The Terminator, and Pinocchio, amongst the most famous on the list.
Leave No Trace had 252 reviews, and they were resoundingly positive, with one reviewer writing: "Leave No Trace, in the biggest of ironies, leaves the greatest of traces upon us."
Another said, "Leave No Trace is further evidence Granik is one of the most talented directors around - and Ben Foster ranks among the finest and most intense actors working today."
A third wrote about the movie, "Granik is one of the most distinctive filmmaking voices we have; I'd love to see her make more features but I'm also glad she takes the time to do them right."

Who Is Megan Stalter? All We Know About The Too Much Star
There's a lot of buzz around Lena Dunham's new show Too Much, which is set to launch on Netflix on 10 July. The British series, which spans ten episodes, follows Jessica, a workaholic New Yorker who comes to the UK following a devastating break-up, only to find her unexpected match in musician Felix (The White Lotus' Will Sharpe). Inspired by Lena's own experiences with her husband Luis Felber, Too Much – which features cameos from Grazia favourite Andrew Scott, Kit Harington, Jessica Alba, Rita Ora and Jennifer Saunders – depict dating and falling in love in its raw, messy form. Ahead of the show's debut, we take a look at the lead star… Megan Stalter in Too Much ©Ana Blumenkron/Netflix Megan Stalter is an American comedian and actress, hailing from Ohio. During her early 20s, she started her comedy career in stand-up and improvisation, where she readily admits that she wasn't a natural. 'I was really, really bad. There was a man at the theatre in Ohio who asked me to stop being in the show. Ohio was pretty right,' she said. In 2018, Megan started posting videos online, which later became The Megan Stalter Show. Her profile rose after she moved to New York in 2019, as she made a name for herself in the alt-comedy scene in the city as well as on Instagram. It led to her joining the cast and writing staff on The National Lampoon Radio Hour reboot the same year. But it wasn't until her break-out role as clueless Hollywood assistant Kayla Schaefer in Hacks that she became a household name. Megan has also appeared on RuPaul's Drag Race as a guest judge and A Nonsense Christmas With Sabrina Carpenter as Sabrina's friend. Megan, who is bisexual, is dating Maddie Allen, whom she's been with since 2022, and the couple are happily in love. Megan shared a photo of them recently, calling Maddie her 'hot perfect girlfriend' and 'an angel'.

Netflix announced the news in May, confirming the show's long-awaited return and it has since triggered a wave of excitement across social media. 'FINALLY!!! I've been waiting for y'all to bring this back! It belongs on Netflix!' someone wrote on the streamer's Instagram post. 'Okkkkkkkk another rewatch is due then,' someone else said.

'FINALLLY I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR TIMES LIKE THIS,' an excited fan wrote. The show had previously been removed from the platform back in 2020 and bounced between Hulu and Tubi before finally returning home to the streamer that helped make it a binge-worthy phenomenon. Fans expressed their excitement and plan to rewatch the show after its relaunch. 'I just started a re-watch yesterday! So great!' a user wrote on Reddit. 'I'm glad it's back too.

The series became a Thursday night staple during its original ABC run and helped launch the 'Thank God It's Thursday' era for Shondaland shows.

Netflix adds all 4 episodes of 'gripping' spy thriller with Line of Duty star
The cast is a real who's who of British acting talent (Picture: BBC/World Productions/Matt Burlem) If you're in the mood for political intrigue, Netflix has just added a dark tale of espionage, terrorism and betrayal set in Victorian London. Based on Joseph Conrad's terrorism satire novel, The Secret Agent originally aired on the BBC back in 2016. Film critic Roger Ebert once labelled Conrad's novel of the same name 'perhaps the least filmable novel he ever wrote' – alongside a one-star review of the 1996 film adaptation. However this four-part adaptation adds plenty of plot goings-ons to the novel's character study to make it pop on the 1886-set screen. The drama centres around Verloc, the owner of a smutty Soho sex shop, who has a side hustle on the go as an informer for the Russian embassy, keeping tabs on a group of anarchists in the capital – whose aims are to 'attack the rich!' But when the Russians make new demands on Verloc, involving a bomb plot, his identity is put at risk – all the more so because his wife keeps inviting the anarchists to their home for revolutionary meetings.

The cast is a real who's who of British acting talent, with Toby Jones heading up the show as Verloc and Vicky McClure playing his wife Winnie. The Secret Agent is based on Joseph Conrad's terrorism satire novel (Picture: BBC/World Productions/Des Willie) The show taps into the hotbed of European radicalism at the time (Picture: BBC/World Productions/Mark Mainz) To round out the top of the call sheet, Stephen Graham joins them as the police Chief Inspector Heat – naturally, a very cool name for the eternally cool actor. The show taps into the hotbed of European radicalism at the time, with the central terrorist attack inspired by a real-life plot to blow up the Greenwich Observatory. Jones said it's no mistake we're drawn to spy stories, telling The Times in 2016: 'We know we live in a surveillance society, we're being watched, we're watching, we've always said we don't fully trust what politicians say, but now we know not to trust them. Conrad had the original spy story.'

All I see is what I don't do.' When the show was first released, the Radio Times hailed it as a 'gripping period tale exploring urgent modern anxieties', while The Telegraph described it as 'one of the bleakest, murkiest and most disturbing dramas this year'. However, the reviews were a mixed bag, with the Guardian dismayed at what had been lost from the original novel, while The New York Times described the show as a family soap opera that didn't get at the character's psychologies.
