'Pain Hustlers' (2023): An Opioid Crisis
What starts off as a success story for a single mother living below the poverty line, slowly begins to weave itself into a tangled web of greed, guilt, and destruction.

After a day of boozing and cruising, narrowboat novice (Gabe) and his craggy, veteran ‘engine whisperer’ (Fred) regale Gabe’s uptight school friend (Harry) with a litany of toilet horror stories that draw a stark line between the haves and the have nots on the London canals. Faecal Beast is a scatological comedy that gleefully punctures landlubbers’ romantic notions of boat life and pays loving homage to Steven Spielberg’s ‘Jaws’.

Netflix’s Shadow and Bone has a complicated relationship with race. It has a diverse cast, but not without its problems. Based on Leigh Bardugo’s two book series, the show features characters from the Shadow and Bone trilogy, which is very straight and white, and the Six of Crows duology, which is much more diverse. When bringing together a cast and writing about these characters, the team behind the show expanded upon some of the representation missing from the first trilogy, then seemed to take away representation from the duology. Shadow and Bone seems to play a bit of a push and pull game when it comes to portraying diversity onscreen.
