Call Her King (2023)

A musical adventure that young viewers will enjoy as Blue and Josh travel to New York City for a big opportunity.

Documented human suffering is never easy to view or read about and is understandably triggering for many people, but it can be educational, and education is a key to change.

Perhaps the most amazing and groundbreaking quality about The Birdcage is how removed it is from both illness and insensitivity. Whereas films preceding it were often somber stories about the tribulations of being gay in a conservatively straight world, Nichols and screenwriter Elaine May expose the fallacies of conservatism as traditional values are thrown into a more open-minded space. They don’t care how far the community has fallen so much as how high they can rebuild themselves.

Shudder’s Host (not a particularly original title, I must say) attempts to bring the spooks to “the quarantine generation” by presenting us with a scary Zoom call during lockdown.

A dog who needs to learn new tricks in this family comedy.

Inspiring and diverse animated series for the whole family.
