‘Barbenheimer’: The Union of Diverse Filmgoers
Much more than a meme, 'Barbenheimer' actually diversifies viewer bases and spreads the important message of both films wider than they otherwise would have!

A down-and-out food delivery driver, Josh, and a fiery restaurant worker, Kayla, team up for a comedic and chaotic night of deliveries. Demanding customers, stolen sushi, and the festive mayhem on Christmas Eve push some life back into their lives and get them to dream just a bit more. Set in urban Honolulu, DASHER is a local take on what’s likely a nationwide story for young people living the gig economy – where working long hours just to get by discourages any life beyond the next gig.

With mismatched eyes, a willingness to experiment with hair color and style, and a rail thin frame, Bowie always drew attention. But he shunned gendered attractiveness, creating his own space somewhere in between. This hallucinatory and often nonlinear 2022 documentary is a perfect salute to David Bowie’s life and career. Rather than interviewing those that knew Bowie, the standard convention for biographical portraits, director Brett Morgen mostly lets the artist’s images, performances, videos, and words speak to capture the essence of the artist. Bowie was more than just a pop star. He painted, sculpted, acted in films, and was a thoughtful and articulate person who gave sincere answers to even the most shallow interview questions.
