The trailer for A24's The Drama does a great job of keeping things intentionally vague. We meet Charlie (Robert Pattinson) and Emma (Zendaya), a couple about to get married who seem like they know everything about each other… until they very clearly don’t. One drunken night at dinner with
The last few episodes of HBO's The Pitt have been a whirlwind of activity. Though not covered here, the show ran the gamut from staff assaults to ICE's appearance. The latter was a prescient addition to the storyline given the current climate in America, and something the show portrayed correctly.
When Margaret Atwood returned to Gilead almost 35 years later, with her book The Testaments, the sequel to her seminal The Handmaid’s Tale, they said she could never match its genius. The story more than matched her 1985 dystopian classic, winning the 2019 Booker Prize, feeling horrifically timely
