The best new additions to Kanopy
If you are a college student or have a library card, there's a good chance that you also have access to Kanopy, a commercial-free, film-oriented streaming site that partners with many public libraries and universities rather than sell subscriptions to the public. The catch, if there is one: You only have a limited number of "credits" to use each month (the amount differs for each partner library/school, with the more generous plans allowing around 10 movies each month), though Kanopy also provides a selection of credit-free titles that don't count toward the monthly limit.
As befitting a service available to library patrons, Kanopy's catalog includes plenty of documentaries, foreign films, and classics as well as Criterion Collection titles and films from a number of arthouse distributors like Kino Lorber and A24. Below, find a list of the best recent and upcoming additions to Kanopy's catalog. All of the listed titles received a Metascore of 61 or higher (or are titles of interest that do not have a Metascore). Mediocre and poorly reviewed releases are omitted; this is just the good stuff available to stream on Kanopy.
