For the first time in history, a Netflix original movie has tied for the most Oscar nominations in this year’s 91st annual Academy Awards. In Roma, the Mexican director Alfonso Cuarón uses a large canvas to tell the story of lives that some might think are small. A personal epic set in Mexico City in the early 1970s, it centers on a young indigenous woman who works as a maid for a middle-class white family that’s falling apart. Though you can see Roma in a limited number of movie theaters, the R-rated film is streaming now on Netflix.
