A Silent Celebration 

The enthralling prequel and 5th installment in 'The Hunger Games' film franchise.

There's no hiding the horrors of war in this inspiring story of survival

Cord Jefferson's hilarious and thought-provoking film continues a long-standing cinematic tradition, expanding the conversation around the impact of systemic racism in today's media.

This 2024 musical film is based on the Broadway show and the 2004 film of the same name with major differences.

Netflix’s Shadow and Bone has a complicated relationship with race. It has a diverse cast, but not without its problems. Based on Leigh Bardugo’s two book series, the show features characters from the Shadow and Bone trilogy, which is very straight and white, and the Six of Crows duology, which is much more diverse. When bringing together a cast and writing about these characters, the team behind the show expanded upon some of the representation missing from the first trilogy, then seemed to take away representation from the duology. Shadow and Bone seems to play a bit of a push and pull game when it comes to portraying diversity onscreen.

Considering the runtime, I expected each scene to hit harder as opposed to a series of montages and vignettes.
