As of the time of this writing, the Mila Kunis-led drama Luckiest Girl Alive is one of the most-watched new Netflix releases on the streaming giant — in fact, it’s the #3 movie on the platform in the US right now.
If you haven’t checked out the movie yet, here’s the basic gist: It tells the story of Ani FaNelli, who’s described as a “sharp-tongued New Yorker” blessed with more or less a dream life. She’s got a glamorous job at a glossy magazine, for starters, plus a lavish wardrobe, and a romantic wedding scheduled in Nantucket. That idyllic existence is upended, however, when a crime documentary director shows up to get “Ani’s” side of a terrible story.
