Making a Killing in 'Killers of the Flower Moon'
‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ is preoccupied with plot and not on the greater struggle of the Osage.
Good Luck Charm
Good Luck Charm is a silent short film set during a playoff hockey game. Margaret, a young woman in a visible funk, reluctantly shares her row with George, a late-arriving stranger in work clothes. Surrounded by Rufus - an over-the-top superfan - and his sidekick The Enforcer, the two strangers are slowly drawn together through the chaos of the game. A Kiss Cam moment sparks an innocent peck, and from there a quiet, playful romance unfolds in the stands - stolen glances, a shared soda, a fake yawn arm-around-the-shoulder - while the game swings wildly around them. When the team finally wins, George and Margaret slip out together, hand in hand, leaving Rufus to celebrate both victories.

"First Girl I Loved": A Well-Intended but Ultimately Flawed Story of Identity
Despite its glaring flaws, First Girl I Loved is not entirely undeserving of a watch. For people who can handle the more difficult aspects of the story and graphic scenes, it is worth looking into. It’s not a film worthy of rewatch, but it may still resonate somewhat with those who need a story like this. It is a genuine, if flimsy attempt at a coming-of-age tale. Were the film to be directed by someone with experiences more similar to Anne, it would likely be more powerful--as it is, it feels like a man’s perspective of what it means to come to terms with your identity as a lesbian.
