A new Saoirse Ronan movie has just been added to Netflix
Netflix has just added the Saoirse Ronan-starring The Outrun, one of 2024’s best-reviewed drama films.
Based on the 2016 memoir of the same name by Amy Liptrot, the movie is told in non-linear order and follows a young woman from Scotland named Rona (played by Ronan) and her experiences with and her recovery from alcoholism.
The plot synopsis reads: “Rona, fresh out of rehab, returns to the wild Orkney Islands after more than a decade away.
“As she reconnects with the dramatic landscape where she grew up, memories of her childhood merge with the more recent challenging events that have set her on the path to recovery.”
Holding an 82% score on Rotten Tomatoes, The Outrun has earned praise for its authentic depiction of addiction, its lyrical direction by Nora Fingscheidt (The Unforgivable), and Ronan’s powerful central turn – for which she recently won an IFTA Best Actress Award.

The Outrun is streaming on Netflix now in Ireland and the UK.
If you want to watch it but save cash, you could use this technique with an Amazon Fire Stick.
The trick is something called ‘leapfrogging’, which is a way to skip between shorter, cheaper subscriptions to watch what you want to watch without signing up for expensive year-long contracts.
For example, you can get a basic Netflix package for €8.99 and stream what you want to watch via your Fire Stick and cancel it before your next bill.
You can then take advantage of the free trials of other services without signing up for them, all from the same place on your Fire Stick, so it’s super easy and convenient.
