In this\\xa0Movie-Go-Round Netflix Roulette, we checked out the world\'s introduction to actor Jaime Bell: Billy Elliot. This movie, about a rebellious tween boy drawn to classical dance in a blue-collar mining town, joins last week\'s film in an exploration of what it means to be a "masculine" man. Nicole, Brett, and David dug into the political backstory, the unsung lives of the women in this town, the punk and glam-rock needle drops, and the struggle to escape or accept life in a working class community.

Next week\'s theme is Future Classics and the film is Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse. Be sure to check out the film so you can follow along!
