"In the Heights" Review
Lin-Manuel Miranda's Tony-winning musical translates beautifully to the screen.
Antibodies (2024)
A short film inspired by the director's personal experience with queerness. Gender and heterosexuality always felt like something he had to perform in a certain way to be accepted by those around him. Through this film, he aims to portray queerness as natural and normalised, contrasting it with the highly performative and unnatural heteronormative ideals, taking it to the extreme by adding body horror elements to the dark comedy.

"First Girl I Loved": A Well-Intended but Ultimately Flawed Story of Identity
Despite its glaring flaws, First Girl I Loved is not entirely undeserving of a watch. For people who can handle the more difficult aspects of the story and graphic scenes, it is worth looking into. It’s not a film worthy of rewatch, but it may still resonate somewhat with those who need a story like this. It is a genuine, if flimsy attempt at a coming-of-age tale. Were the film to be directed by someone with experiences more similar to Anne, it would likely be more powerful--as it is, it feels like a man’s perspective of what it means to come to terms with your identity as a lesbian.
