ANOTHER SIMPLE FAVOR is a second drink from a very twisty cocktail — Moviejawn by Megan Bailey, Associate Editor It is a truth universally acknowledged that any good twisty mystery film must be in want of a sequel.

I’ve been a big fan of Gina Prince-Bythewood! Her filmography has a little bit of everything, and I loved getting a chance to dig into her body of work.

This is a great piece!

If you, like me, had something activated in you by seeing Cruel Intentions at a young age, you should really watch the Dangerous Liaisons film. The Cruel Intentions TV show…not so much!

Shmoo, a black and white cat, seeps with his paws out.

Today, I’m trying to Not Think About It and focus on taking photos of Shmoo while he naps.
