A BEAUTIFUL NOW Starring Abigail Spencer and Cheyenne Jackson Now Streaming on Netflix  Image

a beautiful now, an emotional and haunting film that asks audiences "if your life flashed before, would you like what you see?" is currently streaming on Netflix. With recent tragic events in the media and the huge success of 13 Reason's Why, this important film which Ain't It Cool News described as "emotionally raw, powerful and haunting," is truly a must see.

The debut film from writer/director Daniela Amavia won "Best Screenplay" at the Beverly Hills Film Festival, "Best Experimental Feature" at WorldFest Houston and her script for the film was invited to join the permanent collection at the Academy of Motion Pictures. The film stars Abigail Spencer (the Peabody Award winning TV Series Rectify, NBC's TIMELESS "and Suits with Megan Markle), Cheyenne Jackson (American Horror Stories, 30Rock), Patrick Heusinger (Frances Ha opposite Greta Gerwig, Jack Reacher) Sonja Kinski (Nastassja Kinski's daughter), Elena Satine and Collette Wolfe.

Romy (Abigail Spencer), a passionate dancer, finds herself contemplating EXTREME MEASURES when she reaches a crossroads in her life. As she hangs on the razor's edge between life and death, crossing between reality and lush fantasy, her fractured group of friends reunite and embark on a shared journey into vibrant and intense memories of their past.

Daniela Amavia states "I've always been drawn to stories that are windows into people's desire to be genuine and loved, but plagued by desperation their willingness to compromise their integrity - and what that does to the people around them."

According to Crome Yellow, "Amavia makes a striking debut with a story that that resonates far BEYOND its runtime...with GREAT PERFORMANCES from star Abigail Spencer and an ensemble cast with irresistible rapport. Not many films capture the messy, intricate dynamics of close friends the way Amavia does here. This is as impressive as a debut gets, featuring a strong cinematic voice that pierces deep with focus and urgency."
