‘The Half of It’ Movie Review: What My Little Queer Heart Needed

EXCLUSIVE: ‘Extraction’s Golshifteh Farahani Talks Women, Guns, and Being a Badass

‘Sergio’ is an acting showcase for Wagner Moura & Ana de Armas
There’s a lot of idealism in Sergio, perhaps even too much. Watching it I couldn’t help but think that the job of a diplomat – something I’d really wanted in my younger days – was way beyond my capacity to…
See The Trailer For Camila Mendes’ ‘Dangerous Lies’
I love Camila Mendes, but I refuse to watch Riverdale, because it makes no fucking sense to me. Ya, I said it. Look, no disrespect meant to Riverdale, I just walk away with more questions than answers. BUT – will…
