Original and very entertaining. Definitely helps to have some historical context of the Bible to get the many references, but most of them are fairly recognizable. Lakeith continues to exhibit his range. Such a great actor.
Night Swim: Déjà Vu Takes a Dip
Honestly, this was just okay. Familiar trope of family moving to a haunted property but fall short in many areas due to laziness in the storytelling. Good option if you’re looking for a superficial horror movie, though.
American Fiction: Great Message...Maybe Wrong Decade?
Amazing satire with several laugh out loud moments that didn’t feel forced. The plot of Black creatives being pigeonholed by genres does feel more relevant to literature of the late 90s, which makes sense since the movie was adapted from a book released in 2001, though that glass ceiling undoubtedly transcends just literature. Great casting.
Jonathan Majors Found Guilty of Assault and Harassment
Jonathan Majors just scored a guilty verdict in his trial – and it’s a healthy serving of irony on a silver platter.
After three days of jury ping-pong in the Big Apple, the court hit him with assault in the third degree and a sprinkle of harassment.
Teyana Taylor's Sophomore Album Didn't 'Keep That Same Energy' And It's All Kanye's Fault...AGAIN!
Teyana’s second studio album, KTSE (Keep That Same Energy), was casually released on the Saturday morning of June 23rd and, sadly, it’s just still not Tey time. So, how did we get here??? Well...they say in order to understand the present, you need to know the past.
'One Basquiat' x Brooklyn Museum
More art from my faves! This time, I'm taking a trip to the Brooklyn Museum. It's cold and wet, as the snow melts here in New York, and the museum is hosting the 'One Basquiat' exhibit of the late Jean-Michel Basquiat. I'm super excited to see this specific exhibit as this will actually be my first time seeing one of his pieces in person.
