At 10 years old, we all dream about our adult life. But Thibaut had a very precise idea : one day, he will become a musher. Except that Thibaut grew up in the North of France, in a family which hate dogs, and he never left his native region. Today, he's 41 years old, and he's giving himself a challenge: be part of the biggest european trainee dogs running, in the north of the Polar Circle. This means that he will have to leave his family for three months and fight the "Great White Silence" loneliness and dangerousness.
Everything Everywhere All at Once is exactly as the title describes, yet unexpectedly so. It's like the Matrix, but with OCD and hallucinogens, plus a heart’s dose of mother-daughter intergenerational intercultural growing pains. Review and cast.
Overall this movie was an easy watch, but by no means a worthwhile watch.
Though often underwhelming as a whole, Nevertheless is worth the watch because of the relationship between Sol and Jiwan. It is a stunning, refreshing take on the friends to lovers trope that LGBTQ media has been missing.
Lee Daniels’s Billie Holiday biopic The United States vs. Billie Holiday was released on February 26th, 2021, and my immediate reaction to it was one of discomfort.
Despite its glaring flaws, First Girl I Loved is not entirely undeserving of a watch. For people who can handle the more difficult aspects of the story and graphic scenes, it is worth looking into. It’s not a film worthy of rewatch, but it may still resonate somewhat with those who need a story like this. It is a genuine, if flimsy attempt at a coming-of-age tale. Were the film to be directed by someone with experiences more similar to Anne, it would likely be more powerful--as it is, it feels like a man’s perspective of what it means to come to terms with your identity as a lesbian.
