A Tale of Two Cities

Updated November 2, 2026

A Tale of Two Cities streams in the US on five subscription services — DirecTV On Demand, fuboTV, MGM+, MGM+ (Via Amazon Prime) and Philo — and nowhere else right now: no free stream, and no rent-or-buy option. Here is the full list and which to use.

During the turmoil of the French Revolution, two men who look remarkably alike become connected through their love for the same woman. One is a former French aristocrat, while the other is an English lawyer struggling with alcoholism, setting the stage for a story of romance and upheaval.
