You, Me & Tuscany: Black Films and The Myth of Profitability in Hollywood

Nina Lee, award-winning filmmaker and creator of The Girls Room and Sorry About That, recently posted a thread on X (formerly Twitter) where she revealed that the sale of two of her romance film projects depends on how well the new romantic comedy film You, Me & Tuscany does in theaters.

Re-Visiting Andrea Arnold’s 2011 Filmed Adaptation of Wuthering Heights: A Conversation About Adaptations

Emily Brontë’s sole published work, Wuthering Heights, is not a beautiful story. It’s barely even a love story, much less “the greatest love story of all time” as the tagline for Emerald Fennell's upcoming adaptation goes. Brontë wrote this story to showcase the brutal ugliness of humanity by exploring the devastating fallout of generational abuse, racism, and classism.

This Dark Comedy is Unnerving and Unraveling Identity: The Iguana Becomes Marco Review

There’s nothing that makes you more inspired (and slightly spooked) than a story about identity, the self unknown, regret, and unrequited love (my personal favorite “big three” for delightful nightmare topics). Leaving La MaMa theater after watching The Iguana Becomes Marco in its short run was just like that: a delightful nightmare. Maybe one that you want to end at times but you’re too invested in the rich content of its plot to wake up, definitely one you won’t forget.

How “The Ugly Stepsister” Painfully Explores the Need to be Beautiful

I’ve watched the trailer for Emilie Blichfeldt’s The Ugly Stepsister over 5 times now. It all started when my best friend sent me the trailer on Instagram and I was immediately intrigued. The idea of reworking Cinderella into a horror movie from the perspective of one of her stepsisters sounded like an excellent way of embracing the story’s grim (pun very much intended) roots.
