Letters to Juliet (2016)
In Verona, Italy, the city of Romeo and Juliet's enduring romance, aspiring writer Sophie (Amanda Seyfried) stumbles upon a hidden wall where the heartbroken leave notes asking for Juliet’s guidance. After unearthing a 50-year-old letter, Sophie joins its author, Claire (Vanessa Redgrave), in a search for her lost love. Accompanied by her grumpy grandson Charlie (Christopher Egan), the trio discovers that sometimes the greatest love story ever told is your own.
Midsommar (2019)
Ari Aster’s chilling folk horror film takes place in a remote Swedish village during what seems to be an idyllic midsummer festival. In the hopes of reigniting the passion in their crumbling relationship, young couple Dani (Florence Pugh) and Christian (Jack Reynor) visit the village with Christian’s friends. What’s supposed to be a peaceful retreat rapidly distorts into a harrowing experience, as the villagers' seemingly innocent festivities reveal a sinister and deeply disturbing reality that will leave even the most hardened viewer shaken.
The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent delivers a hilariously unhinged version of Nicholas Cage as "Nick Cage," a creatively drained actor accepting a million-dollar gig at a superfan's birthday. This seemingly simple appearance spirals into a wild ride of CIA espionage, high-octane action, and self-referential humor as Cage embodies his iconic roles and explores a "Cagedom" shrine. Director Tom Gormican's action-comedy is a loving homage to Cage's legendary career and a blast of nostalgia for anyone who's ever loved a Cage flick.
Florida Girls (2019)
Laura Chinn’s series, Florida Girls, dives into the messy reality of adulthood for four lifelong friends – Shelby, Kaitlin, Jayla, and Erica – who live in a small Florida town. When one moves away to follow her dreams, the rest are forced to confront their lack of direction and figure out adulthood on their own terms. Inspired by Chinn's own experiences growing up on Florida's West Coast, the series delivers a raw and relatable portrayal of friendship and self-discovery. It also features an all-female cast, including Patty Guggenheim, Laci Mosley, Melanie Field, and Chinn herself.
Barb and Star Goes to Vista del Mar (2021)
Those looking for an absurd escape into sunshine and silliness will never go wrong with Barb and Star Goes to Vista del Mar. Lifelong pals Barb and Star go on a quest to trade their Midwestern routine for a chaotic adventure in the sun-soaked Vista Del Mar. Armed with their hair curlers and favorite culottes, they test if the grass really is greener on the other side. Their vacation takes a few wild turns involving romantic entanglements, unexpected alliances, and a truly bonkers villain with a diabolical plan. Costarring (and co-written by) Kristen Wiig and Annie Mumolo, this hilarious film is a summer vacation must-watch with the girls.
