STREAMING TRENDS

Find Me Falling. Netflix.

Last week’s top two films in streaming maintained their position at the top of the charts. In first place was an under-the-radar Rom-Com, Find Me Falling, and in second place, Ron Howard’s Hillbilly Elegy. The first is wonderfully escapist and satisfies the current drought of rom-coms in the market; the other was boosted by the rise in status of the writer (book), JD Vance (VP candidate).

Here’s the breakdown of the top ten (July 26 - Aug 1) by hours viewed:

Find Me Falling (Netflix)

• Hours Viewed: 5.16 M

• Runtime: 1hr 33min

• Est. Views: 3,300,000
