"The Zone of Interest" is making waves on Max following its Oscar wins for Best International Feature Film and Best Sound at this year's ceremony. Loosely based on the 2014 novel of the same name by Martin Amis, the movie stars Christian Friedel as Rudolf Höss, a real-life Nazi commandant building an idyllic life with his family on the other side of the Auschwitz concentration camp. Actor Sandra Hüller, who starred in fellow 2024 Oscar nominee "Anatomy of a Fall," also stars in the film as Rudolf's wife, Hedwig.
Elsewhere, Greta Gerwig's 2023 film "Barbie" is also trending on the streamer. Margot Robbie leads the movie as the titular doll, who must journey into the real world with fellow doll Ken (Ryan Gosling) after she begins experiencing existential crises courtesy of the human playing with her.
