I had so much fun with Forbidden Fruits I can’t even begin to tell you! It’s one of my favorites this year so far. It’s Mean Girls, but make it witchy with a slice of slasher—an instant cult classic!
My review for @thecurbau.bsky.social www.thecurb.com.au/forbidden-fr...
Forbidden Fruits is basically Mean Girls meets Free People but make it witchy and slasher, and honestly, it feels made just for me. Instant cult classic. The kills are epic. Lili Reinhart gives pure bubbly pop queen vibes, and the soundtrack slaps so hard. I’m obsessed 💅🔪
netflix is actually criminal for the lack of promotion for this film because wow, it’s gorgeous! watch it! :) boxd.it/dtNtj5
Sirāt is fascinating in its hypnotic beauty, but sadly not much beyond that. I really couldn’t get into this one—it’s one of those movies you either love or don’t. Not really my cup of tea, unfortunately. Gorgeous to look at, though!

For International Women’s Day, I put together a list of films directed by women, some underrated gems, some pioneers who broke ground. These are some of the stories that have stayed with me, and I hope they stay with you too! 🖤

same, i thought it was so much fun!
yeah, i couldn’t remember lol. i knew it was a C something. i actually participated in that 😂 one of the few i’ve done lol
i have a feeling the bride! might end up being a jennifer’s body situation. i’m pretty sure it even had the same cinemascore. i remember loving that movie when a lot of people around me hated it. now my friends love it and it blew up with gen z. i’ll happily ride that same wave with the bride! lol
aww, thank you so much, Jenée! that means a lot!!! i’m glad you enjoyed the movie! 🖤
I absolutely adored The Bride so much. Growing up, I was always fascinated by the Bride, wondering who she really was beyond that brief moment in the 1935 film. This movie finally gives her that life.

#TheBrideMovie is the film I’ve dreamed of since falling for The Bride of Frankenstein as a kid. Jessie Buckley and Christian Bale burn with raw energy, every frame electrified. Costumes, cinematography, atmosphere—pure, dark magic. Movie of the year 🖤
Every Republican president in my lifetime has picked a war based on a lie when his favorability rating started to tank.
America has never been the shining city on the hill. We've been the land from whence monsters come in the night to drop bombs and fire on children and innocents.
my heart aches for all those little girls ripped from this world, all because some orange fuck cares more about power and money than human life. it’s horrifying, and honestly, it’s shameful to be an american
yep, this is truly the beginning of trump-invested hollywood. I’m so fucking tired, man
yep, you're not wrong with this.
it’s always about the shareholders, never the art. this paramount/wb deal will go down as the most disastrous, soulless moves in hollywood history. it’s bigger than just movies. this is going to cause damage in ways we can’t even fully see yet. scary stuff
honestly, if this deal with paramount/wb goes through I'll never cover anything from them ever again
reposting this list incase anyone missed it. it kind of blew up on letterboxd and now has over 300 movies. enjoy! maybe you will find something you will love! #FilmSky #Moviesky 🎬 #Sapphic #WLW #Lesbian #Queer
"If you love stories about women defying the rules, queer love that burns slow and bright, and fairy tale worlds that feel alive, you need to see this movie"
i adored this movie! my review: #FilmSky #MovieSky 🎬

so, i spent hours curating a list of over 200 sapphic films directed by women. stories about women loving women just hit different when women are behind the camera. i would love for you to check it out or maybe recommend anything i’m missing. :) letterboxd.com/caonfilm/lis...
for those who don’t know: ALYSA LIU literally retired after the 2022 olympics, left skating for two years, went to college, lived her life, then came back, won worlds, and just won olympic gold. a comeback for the ages. i love seeing women win. i love figure skating. absolute cinema ✨
finally caught up with falcon lake (2023) earlier today, and all i have to say is: someone PLEASE, for the love of god, put sara montpetit in more movies. this girl channels anna karina, man, she’s so, so good. watch this if you haven’t! it's on tubi! :)
