Ted Sarandosis commenting on the box office success ofOppenheimer,Barbie, and theirNetflixseriesBaby Reindeer.
Both of those movies would be great for Netflix.
And so I dont think theres any reason to believe that certain kinds of movies do or dont work.

Netflix recently took the world by storm with the limited seriesBaby Reindeer.
The story created by Richard Gadd is based on his life and his experience dealing with a stalker.
Sarandos credits the series success to Netflixs algorithm, which recommended the show to international audiences.
There was a time when something likeBaby Reindeerwould not even be seen in the United States.
And if it did, itd be on PBS once, Sarandos toldNYT.
And its been an enormous hit around the world.
