“Birds of Prey” and the Fantabulous Emancipation from the DCEU
Birds of Prey has some of the best stunt work and choreography of 2020, and was the most fun I’d had in an action film since John Wick 3.
Rusalia
On the night of Rusalii, a man is overtaken by Rusalia, a seductive spirit drawn from Romanian myth. What begins as a fleeting encounter turns into a trance-like possession, pulling him into a world where desire, fear, and folklore blur. As she moves through him—mind, body, and memory—he becomes both witness and vessel, swept into an ecstatic, perilous ritual that he may not return from.
