Lindenwood students are already halfway through the semester, which means that fall is officially here. October holds the proud title of one of the most favorite months for many students for its cultural diversity. Some of the most known and loved parts of October are Halloween, seasonal lattes, and fall movies.
Now that most of the midterms are over, it is time for students to sit back and enjoy a well-deserved movie break from studying.
Each month, streaming platforms such as Netflix, Hulu, and Max (previously known as HBO Max) remove certain shows and movies and replace them with new ones.
