Can I connect iPhone SE to MacBook Air via cable and watch media content?

Hi

Can I connect my iPhone SE to my MacBook Air via a cable in order to watch content I've downloaded (eg from Netflix/Amazon) onto my iPhone? I'm going away to an area that has no wifi and I'd like to be able to take a batch of downloaded content with me and watch it on my Mac but believe it's not possible to download content from Netflix and Amazon video onto the Mac hard drive.

Alternatively is there a way to download the content onto an external storage device and connect that to the Mac for playback?

Thanks in advance.

Mark
