Sick or Evil or Both: “My Friend Dahmer” and the Coverage of White Killers
This HBO mini-series asks why a young white man turned to violence and finds no easy answers. But why do we only ask questions about certain kinds of killers?
Theo's Tears (2024)
Theo Kingston is an undersized pre-teen who loves musicals, art, and dance. Richard Kingston, his father, prefers drinking a cold beer and watching ESPN. On the day of his peewee football tryout, Theo’s supportive mother, Julie, heads out of town for an academic conference. It is the first time the boys will be home alone together and it just happens to be the week of Halloween. All is well until Theo reveals that he and his BFF, Tess, plan to dress as Anna and Elsa from Frozen. This is unacceptable for Richard; he forbids his son from tarnishing the family legacy in front of the whole town. He denies Theo’s request and demands he focus on making the football team. But Theo would much rather be on the cheerleading team with Tess instead of getting bullied by his teammates. Both fronts escalate when Theo spontaneously decides to paint his fingernails.

"A Big Bold Beautiful Journey" (2025) Film Review-Taking a risk to love and trust again via fantastical, shared paths
Strangers in a crowd, exchanging glances, looking away, continually managing to run into each other then part ways, end up at the same diner, find they've rented the exact same vehicles, and are then made to travel together to learn once more whether they can both find genuine adoration and companionship again. This really does, in so many words, sum up the foundational gist of of this new feature film from writer Seth Reiss ("The Menu") and director Kogonada ("The Acolyte", "After Yang"). Yet, it's all only the set-up for the REAL wonder of everything that happens before, during, and in the aftermath of a magical, meaningful journey.

"Cruella" is a Disney Retelling Done Right
Overall, Cruella stands above the other Disney retellings. Its dark and bold, and that is exactly what these retellings should be. Emma Stone continues to prove she's one of the finest young actresses working today, and Emma Thompson gives one of the best villain performances in the last decade. The fashion is stunning, the dogs are adorable, and the story is wildly vibrant and original. It's classic movie fun, and it shouldn't be overlooked.
