‘Defending Your Life’
If you liked The Good Place, you’ll love Albert Brooks’ classic 90s flick Defending Your Life. After dying in a car wreck, Daniel Miller (Brooks) is sent to the purgatory-like Judgment City. Daniel enjoys endless buffets, nightly entertainment, and a crisp all-white living space. This isn’t heaven, though — it’s merely the pit-stop, where Daniel must prove he deserves the pearly white gates based on his life choices. He goes before two afterlife judges, who watch his life as if it were a streaming service. Defending Your Life features the same intriguing philosophical aspects of The Good Place. And, more importantly, it also has a heartwarming romantic subplot, featuring a gorgeous, young Meryl Streep. Check out Defending Your Life for another charming take on the afterlife.
