Dörr spotted the girl, wearing a green dress, at a contest in April 2014. That was how Dörr met Maysa Martins, a 12-year-old from Brasilândia, a dangerous slum on the outskirts of São Paulo.

Dörr also was fascinated by the other girls who came solely to watch the Young Misses, each likely dreaming about becoming a Miss herself one day. Dörr arrived early and began photographing girls who caught her attention – not just the contest hopefuls, or the reigning champions in their sashes. It began as an assignment for Revista São Paulo. “I needed to catch them slightly distracted to be able to do my photos.” Dörr spent hours following a cadre of preteen girls as part of the nationwide Young Miss Brazil contest. “It wasn’t easy,” Brazilian photographer Luisa Dörr said. In fact, it may be a more difficult task to get a Young Miss not to strike a pose.

She swings her hair around to one side, stretches her neck into a long line, and delicately cocks a hand on her hip. In front of the lens, she transforms herself into a supermodel. Walk into the room with a camera, and she’ll grab you by the hand, tugging you into position. Oh, and we bypassed rom-coms: For that, check out our list of Netflix Romantic Comedies Ranked by Tomatometer.It’s not hard to get a Brazilian “Young Miss” to pose for the camera.

The only stipulation for consideration in this list of Netflix funnies was a Fresh rating from at least 20 reviews. And, of course, there’s Netflix’s own stable of exclusive originals ( Pee-wee’s Big Holiday, The Ballad of Buster Scruggs). There are feel-good movies ( The Sapphires, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off) and dark comedies ( The Lobster, A Serious Man). The streaming service’s library for comedy flicks includes stone-cold classics ( Groundhog Day, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, The Naked Gun), and modern films that like to dabble in a little drama with their yuks ( The Squid and the Whale, The Meyerowitz Stories, Young Adult). If you’re looking for some funny movies on Netflix on the Fresh side of the Tomatometer, you’ve come to the right place as Rotten Tomatoes presents the 60 Best Movie Comedies on Netflix to Watch Right Now!
