‘A Rose Called Candace’ Is the Perfect Juneteenth Weekend Activity
This Juneteenth weekend from June 21st – June 23rd plan to be at the legendary Odyssey Theater in Los Angeles to watch ‘A Rose Called Candace‘ by Candace Nicholas-Lippman!

However her show was never far from her heart.
I got to speak with her a bit about the show and her process:

‘I Want You Back’ Makes Me Want More
It’s uniqueness that makes the Amazon Prime original I Want You Back stand apart from normal romcoms. Sure, we’ve seen exes plot their beloved’s returns (or demises), but it’s not often we see it done with such heart and relatability.

Sundance 2022 Review: ‘You Won’t Be Alone’ Because This Movie Will Always Stay With You
There are certain actors that when you see their name you know exactly what to expect. When I see Toni Collette listed I know things are about to get real messed up. When I see Jonathan Majors I know the intensity is sure to ramp up a few notches. And when I see Noomi Rapace, I know that I’ll be treated to a warped version of some mythic fairy tale that will scar me for life. You Won’t Be Alone does not disappoint.

“Teen Wolf” the Movie: Cho Says ‘No’
Arden Cho as Kira in “Teen Wolf” (Source: IBTimes) Where do I even start? First off, I have been predicting that the Teen Wolf movie will never see the light literally since the first time it was mentioned just after the finale. And the situation with Arden Cho only helps fuel the fire. The thing is that generally speaking, I’m not against a Teen Wolf movie. Give me an animated adventure and I’m down!

SXSW 2022 Review: ‘Sissy’ Takes Self Help to New Lows
If you have nothing nice to say, don’t say anything at all. This was a parental trope that I’m sure most are familiar with, but Sissy proves it’s more than just an old wives’ tale. Starring Aisha Dee and co-written and co-directed by Kane Senes and Hannah Barlow, Sissy is a horror film that will have you questioning your alliances to excellently flawed characters.

Superbowl LVI is ready to throw down this Sunday! The Bengals and the Rams will go head to head to see who is the best.
