I’ve been enjoying so many great films at Slamdance! Here’s my first article.

“The LeMieurs” is such a personal documentary about the changes in one family who work in the funeral business. Double feature this with “Thank You and Good Night.”

Amanda Seyfried did not receive an Oscar nomination for The Testament of Ann Lee (2025).

Do you think she deserved an Oscar nomination? Would you have voted for her to win?

Just catching up on this episode and I’m so sorry but Morgan and Chels for president. I know neither of them want it, but it’s the future your children deserve.

Catherine O’Hara in “Beetlejuice.”

Catherine O’Hara in “Beetlejuice.”

The pinnacle of comedy for me as a child was Catherine O’Hara in “Beetlejuice.” Her timing, the subtle but impactful choices made her one of the greats. It’s truly incomprehensible to lose such a legend.

Review: “H is for Hawk” — Female Gaze: The Film Club Lindsay Duncan and Claire Foy in “H is for Hawk” | Courtesy of Roadside Attractions

If anyone is going to pull off an interior performance about grief, it’s Claire Foy. At times, a touch slow, “H is for Hawk” is a compelling film about loss, love, and finding yourself on the other side of grief. Full review below!

Y’all, it’s a big episode. And I wouldn’t want to talk about “Waitress” with anyone else. This film truly was the paradigm shift for me. Adrienne Shelly and her film came into my life at such a formative age, and it piqued my interest in women in film. Hope you all enjoy this ep as much as I do! 🥧💛
