‘Youngblood’ Is a Sincere, if Familiar, Hockey Drama Sports are one of the prime frameworks upon which to build a cinematic story. Sports, at their core, are pure expressions of the human struggle to improve oneself and overcome struggles born from both within and without. They're simple to understand but complicated to master, but just as often, the true answer is for a protagonist to master themselves before they can master the sport.

‘Sweetness’ Sings a Song of Obsession Each of us only gets to be a teenager once. Our bodies coursing with hormones and our minds rapidly filling with new information, this is a time that can be chaotic emotionally as we navigate the world while developing into the people we're going to be. This chaos, which is formative, is obviously difficult to navigate and leads some kids to places like depression, anxiety, anger, obsession, or some combination thereof.

Whether we're young and needing affirmation, or old and needing reminding, a story of a young person going on a quest and finding themselves in the process is one we can all see ourselves in. The execution is tricky; it's easy to fall too far into familiar cliches without bringing anything new, but when one of these stories lands, it can be among the most satisfying.
