When it comes to Netflix’s Top 10 chart, the lineup is constantly shifting. One day, an old-school classic claims a top spot and the next, a buzzy psychological thriller takes over. But every so often, a film comes along that not only cracks the Top 10, it stays there. Past examples include The Waterfront (that cancellation still stings) and the wildly popular K-Pop Demon Hunters. And now, we’ve got a new name to add to the list: Ruth & Boaz.
Produced by Tyler Perry and DeVon Franklin, Ruth & Boaz is a modern-day reimagining of one of the most iconic love stories in the Bible. Set in Tennessee, the 90-minute film follows Ruth, a young woman who leaves behind Atlanta’s intense music scene to care for an elderly widow. In the process, she finds unexpected healing, love and a maternal bond she’s never known.
