From the golden age of Hollywood to the best new movies to stream, Rauseo breaks down the ever-evolving movie watching experience to help us understand the good, the bad, and the ugly of streaming.

Jeff Rauseo's Lost in the Stream is your ultimate roadmap, combining movie history insights with an in-depth breakdown of how streaming influences the movies that are made and the ones that we are shown.

Blending nostalgia with today's streaming hits, Lost in the Stream dives deep into the iconic history of film that shaped the art while helping you discover new favourites. It's the perfect companion for movie buffs and casual viewers alike.

Inside, you'll find:
