This month, the streaming giant is adding some fantastic films, including the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy, Alicia Vikander and Michael Fassbender in romantic drama The Light Between Oceans, superb civil rights biopic Selma, and Hilary Swank weepie P.S. I Love You.
Oh, and if A Christmas Prince was your guilty pleasure last festive season, this month brings the sequel. It's called A Christmas Prince: The Royal Wedding. Wherever could they have got that idea from?
