[ad_1] “I want to talk to you without speaking.” Few working directors can communicate the complex feelings of longing, desire, and devastation with as much texture as Luca Guadagnino. Queer, an adaptation of William S. Burroughs’s controversial autobiographical novella of the same name, follows William Lee (Daniel Craig), a heroin addict and American expat in

[ad_1] Here’s the thing about James Gunn’s new Max series Creature Commandos: it’s not Suicide Squad (2016). If audiences thought so, they might be expecting characters to show up who are likely above this show’s pay grade. This is Gunn’s trademark brand of bloody, action-packed, profanity-laced storytelling, with a group of superhuman types deemed subhuman

[ad_1] When a person receives an inheritance from family, that blessing is often a burden, heavy with the weight of responsibility. In The Piano Lesson, that dichotomy is examined through the lens of a Black family in the midst of the Great Depression, not far from the long shadow of slavery. Produced by Denzel Washington

[ad_1] Childhood sweethearts who ended on bad terms ten years ago find themselves in-laws at a domineering matriarch’s Christmas get-together. Will Avery (Lindsay Lohan) survive her critical mother-in-law’s barbs? Will Logan (Ian Harding) successfully court a family friend’s business? And, most importantly: will the two of them be able to pretend they’re strangers? Despite its

[ad_1] Moana 2 has officially arrived, and it’s just . . . fine. The characters from the beloved first film, Moana (Auli’i Cravalho) and demigod Maui (Dwayne Johnson), are back for another adventure that builds on the heroine’s still relatively newfound exploration skills. The chemistry is also still there, as are the songs, and there’s

[ad_1] Suburban housewives will always be a subject of fascination. As a group, they’re symbolic of aspirational modernity, of those who uphold and represent societal norms, the status quo, the Family, and the oppressive, insidious sexism that forces women into a box, because the problem with no name remains both stubbornly persistent and difficult to
