Lindsay Lohan's Comeback in 'Falling for Christmas'
Lindsay Lohan makes a big film comeback in this amazing holiday comedy of the year.
Brisket (2024)
With guests waiting outside, a blood-drenched bride evaluates the state of things, whilst advising her lover on a recipe for that evening's "special" dinner. As the high stakes of a dead body loom over her, she focuses instead on her lover and the special recipe, resulting in a serious reality check. "Brisket" is a queer, dark comedy that calls into question the nature of desire, appetite, and the lengths they drive us to, both violent and banal.

'The Half of it' Handles its Presented Social Issues Thoughtfully
The social issues The Half of it takes on are handled well, between the antagonization brought on to Ellie for her race and the conflict that arises from her being gay. Both aspects of her character are built up over the course of the film and don’t seem abrupt or rushed. The film shows racism towards Ellie and her and father in varying levels, from having her schoolmates specifically address her as "Chinese girl” to the fore mentioned way her Dad is treated due to language barriers. The same can be said about Ellie being a lesbian. While she never truly “comes out” in the narrative, that does not undermine her journey of self-discovery from being meaningful. These ideas aren’t thrust upon the viewer in a preachy manor, the scenarios that occur feel believable given the rural setting. The film presents watchers with problems whom those like Ellie may face, and leaves us to sit with them and reflect.
