New Documentary "Pretty Ugly" Tells the Story of The Lunachicks
As one of the women said in the film, friendship in your teens is “as important as any lover” and it’s clear they lived that philosophy throughout their early adult lives as well.

See all the Hollywood groping you’ve only read about in the tabloids! Find out what it really takes to get ahead in the adult film business! Follow hot young hopefuls from the casting couch to the wrap party, and witness every wild twist on the way. Sex sells, and these sassy sisters are slinging it saucy. But will they get the part, or will they end up another face on the cutting room floor? Or worse: will they bare body and soul, only to be sent back to Kansas with nothing but a faux-pearl necklace from the Casting Agent as a souvenir? In this time of showbiz shenanigans, we present this film as a cautionary tale, lest the supple flesh of any young ingénue fall prey to the advances of an unscrupulous Agent or Producer as chum to sharks. So heed this warning should ever you hear the siren song of the silver screen, and don’t let the fate of these girls befall you. A kiss is not a contract. Before you give it up, get it in writing!

The height of subversive horror cinema is Jennifer’s Body. No, I will never budge on that. Yes, Cabin in The Woods is funny, Scream is very well made, and the Scary Movie franchise is …. there. But nothing is quite as satisfying as watching the teenage succubus that is Jennifer Check rip apart boys. In the post #metoo era where the industry is far from changed, watching revenge flicks like these is probably one of the most cathartic experiences due to the slow-moving progress being made.
Halle's belting, crystal clear notes, and warm tone infused something into this blockbuster that I thoroughly enjoy.
I was able to sit down and talk with the director of the short film Dog Lover Anne-Sophie Bine as she discussed and how she came to be in film.
Disney/Pixar may see a bit of a turning point with Pixar’s new Disney+ Sparkshorts short film: OUT.
Suppressed intergenerational family trauma and healing, warm welcome to the Marvel Cinematic Universe team, and Awkwafina's humor really make this film the real MVP.
