Mother of Dawn 

Black Christmas movies are few and far in between to find — so it is wonderful to see more representation on the screen just in time

For the entirety of Raiders of the Lost Ark, Marion remains in full control of both her body and her personality, a rarity for female characters at the time of the film’s release. She’s granted depth with personal demons from her past and emotional vulnerability when the situation deems it appropriate for her to grow alongside Indy. She avidly rejects the notion of being anything other than a sassy, humane rebel, and Indy’s equal in every way. This she does while still maintaining her femininity.

A sweet slice-of-life anime that visualizes all the ways we creatively hide our vulnerabilities from the world.

The movie opens with an empty house, cameras pan around from the perspective of what viewers are confused about at first, but turns out to be a spirit living in the home.

Hitchcock is no stranger to innuendo, as was common in that era, but there was something so sophisticated about his approach to 'Rope', and it starts in the first frame.

A wondrously imaginative, diverse, and spirited allegory of childhood and the arduousness of adulthood.
