Graduation Afternoon (2016)

A decade since it aired, Shameless (U.S.) has always stuck to its guns (and baseball bats) about character diversity.

On March 31st, International Trans Day of Visibility, following some COVID related delays, the trailer was finally dropped, and although Taylour Paige and Riley Keough look to impress as lead characters Zola and Stefani, a brief cameo from a queer icon was what convinced me I have to see this movie.

True crime media is notoriously obsessed with the “missing white woman” trope, and yet the vast majority of American murder victims are male, and well over half are people of color.

Viewers get a glimpse of life of mediocrity in a world where humans and cartoon characters live together in this comeback.

This anti-love young adult movie includes mature topics and dialogue.

The Djinn is about childhood traumas and lifestyle changes. It tells the story of Dylan (Ezra Dewey), a mute boy who blames himself for his mom’s death. He also condemns himself for being speech-impaired, and he thinks that if he did not have that condition, everything could had been different.
