In May, Prime Video will return to the world of live awards shows as it again broadcasts the Academy of Country Music Awards on May 11. The major event will be hosted by country-music superstars Dolly Parton and Garth Brooks. The 58th ACM Awards will stream live from The Star in Frisco, Texas. One of the benefits of an awards show on a streaming service is that it doesn’t run commercials. If Prime Video continues the tradition it started last year, the ACMs will utilize the entire venue to keep the action moving throughout the show.
Coming to the streaming service in May is Wes Anderson’s “Moonrise Kingdom,” a charming, stylized coming-of-age adventure about two offbeat 12-year-olds (played by Kara Hayward and Jared Gilman) who find solace in each other. Their touching romance is a potent reminder that love comes at all ages — and adults have much to learn from children. Bruce Willis, Bill Murray, Frances McDormand, and Ed Norton co-star.
Check out the “Moonrise Kingdom” trailer:
The true story of Mamie Till-Mobley’s pursuit of justice for her 14-year-old son Emmett Till, brutally murdered in 1955 in Mississippi, is the subject of “Till.” Emmett, accused of offending a white woman, was killed while visiting his cousins in Mississippi. A jury acquitted his killers and the injustice was a catalyst for the civil-rights movement. The drama streams May 9 and stars Danielle Deadwyler, Whoopi Goldberg, and Jalyn Hall.

Prime Video also offers comedy specials in May, including “Jimmy O. Yang: Guess How Much?” streaming May 2. Yang takes on everything from loser friends to dealing with his Asian parents. Plus, Zarna Garg, an Indian-immigrant mom, lets it rip in her first stand-up special: “One In A Billion” on May 16.
A new German thriller series, “The Gryphon,” arrives on Prime Video on May 26. A terrifying monster lives in a fantastical world called The Black Tower. Mark is the only person who can destroy it — but he’s not interested. Between school woes and first love, he’s focused on himself. But when his brother disappears, he and his misfit friends set out to face the dangers head-on.

Babe Movies
Double bill of the hugely successful ‘talking animals’ movies. In ‘Babe’ (1995) a loveable pig is saved from the butcher’s knife when Farmer Hoggett wins him in a raffle. Adopted by the farm’s sheepdog fraternity, Babe begins to display mutton herding skills of his own, leading to his entry into the local sheepdog trials. In the sequel, ‘Babe: Pig in the City’ (1998), Farmer Hoggett has an accident, is unable to run his business and faces bankruptcy. The only solution is to cash in on the fame of his shepherding pig, and the animal is duly dispatched to open a state fair. However, a series of mishaps leads to Mrs Hoggett being detained by city authorities, along with a number of four-legged friends, and our porcine hero has to use all his wits to finds his way back to his owner.
