I don’t know about the rest of you, but I’ve been feeling pretty claustrophic after being locked down (for the most part) since March. Most of us have had to cancel a lot of travel plans this year (thanks, COVID-19), who knows when things are going to get back to normal.

While we’re waiting we’ve always movies to stream to take us to all those exotic locations we can’t visit in person right now, and Upgraded Points wants to pay you $1,000 to do just that. Yes. You read that right. $1,000 to watch movies!

Here’s what you need to know:

The winner will be asked to take notes and track specific details in each movie including the scenery, themes, characters and more in a spread sheet as well as post about their binge-watching journey on Facebook and Twiter.

The movies you’d be watching are:

  1. Under the Tuscan Sun
