What 'Magnolia' Says About Childhood Trauma
Magnolia focuses on how one’s childhood and trauma relate to their confidence and self.

Her boyfriend, Mozzy, is wrongfully accused of a crime he didn't commit, further adding to the financial and emotional strain. Despite their challenges, Lil Jay is a kid with a good heart, trying to stay on the right path despite the turbulent environment around him.

The "Daredevil" renaissance is finally upon us! As we return to the Netflix show, let's take a look at the ways the show gets blindness right and wrong.
Remember when there was this amazing comedy titled "National Lampoon's Vacation"? To this day, it is a true classic of the genre and certainly put a new spin on precisely what KINDS of insanity could occur when taking the fam on the road. Then, like with so many successful films, there was the sequel (which for me was even MORE of a classic than the original!). However, the third film emerged....and then a fourth. Suddenly, the luster was gone and disappointment set in.
The most impressive aspect of this film is the honest and natural performances given by the on-screen duo.
This film is a splendid mix of mediums, but its strength lies in its simplicity and beautiful message of closeness.
