There’s something instantly charming about a film that begins with its actors sitting in a cinema watching a movie. It pulls you right into its world, like you’ve slipped into the seat beside them. Nouvelle Vague does exactly that, and from the opening scene I knew I was in for something funny, clever, and unexpectedly engaging. A…
In his new play Castles, writer and actor Dan Blick dissects the emotional terrain of a romantic relationship its silences, miscommunications, and quiet resentments. Following his previous works Telos and Lake George, Blick turns his attention to intimacy, exploring how couples can lose themselves while trying to hold on.

I might now officially be one of those people who watch Christmas romance movies in November not by choice, but because curiosity got the better of me. Unfortunately, A Merry Little Ex-Mas didn’t make the experience worth it. You’d think Alicia Silverstone, who nailed comedic timing back in Clueless, and early 2000s heartthrob Oliver Hudson, of Dawson’s Creek fame, would…
Is it just me, or is Selling the OC actually better than Selling Sunset now? I’ve always preferred this spin-off maybe it’s the mix of personalities or the coastal vibe but Season 4 really sealed the deal for me. There’s still drama (because, of course), but it’s toned down compared to past seasons, and the office dynamic feels more…

Now, she takes on an entirely new challenge as “Earth” in Hot Mess, a bold new pop musical that reimagines the climate crisis as a turbulent love story between Earth…
Gaby Dellal’s Park Avenue is a love letter to New York and my god, she’s written it beautifully. The city hums through every frame, not just as a setting but as a heartbeat. Dellal, drawing inspiration from her own relationship with her mother, crafts a film that feels deeply personal yet universally resonant tender, stylish, and quietly…
When I heard Nobody Wants This was getting a second season, I wasn’t convinced it needed one and after watching, I’m still not. It feels like the show’s trying to recapture the spark of season one but forgot to bring the story with it. Nothing really happens this time around, and what does happen feels forced. Joanne…
Regretting You is Paramount’s new romance drama based on the 2019 novel by Colleen Hoover the same author behind It Ends with Us, which made a ton of money despite the whole Blake Lively controversy. Thankfully, there’s no drama (yet) with this production… but hey, there’s still time for the “Colleen Curse” to show up. The film…
If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably noticed the same films appearing on every “Top 10” list ever. Don’t get me wrong I love The Shawshank Redemption as much as the next person but what about the movies that slipped through the cracks? As someone who watches a lot of films (maybe too many, if you ask my friends),…
