Taped College Confessions 9 (2000)

Wes Anderson offers a light-hearted comedy in the Middle East centering around Catholic motifs. 

The repeated actions, the blood on the petals, the rustling under the floor…An ambient short horror film takes us into another realm.

An aspect of She-Ra that I find refreshing is even though a large portion of the cast is on the LGBTQ+ Spectrum, being gay is never mentioned. While this might initially sound like a negative thing, in the show’s land of Etheria being on the gay spectrum is shown to be so common and normalized that straight isn’t the default. As much as there is to appreciate about narratives revolving around the obstacles that may come from being non-heteronormative, it’s nice to get immersed in a world where no one bats an eye at all to any sort of differing identity.

This drama film is about Priscilla and Elvis Presley's failed marriage through the lens of the title character.
