DEATH TO 2020
2020|16+|1h 10m|US Movies
It’s not easy to accurately describe the year 2020. However, the creators of Black Mirror have come up with an excellent title for their mockumentary, which tells viewers the story of the dreadful year that was or perhaps still is? Join a star-studded cast that’s been seamlessly woven together with actual footage from the year 2020 to give us a lighter spin on what happened.
Starring Samuel L. Jackson, Hugh Grant and Lisa Kudrow
BRIDGERTON
2020|18+|1 Season|US TV Shows
Think Pride and Prejudice with the angst and scandal of Gossip Girl. This new series gives us a look at the wealth, lust and betrayal of England’s regency era, complete with a scandal sheet that quite maliciously airs the town’s dirty laundry. What’s best? Instead of a young Kristen Bell who gives us her hugs and kisses, we have the dame of Hollywood Julie Andrews playing the catty Lady Whisteldown. Starring Adjoa Andoh, Julie Andrews and Lorraine Ashbourne
PIECES OF A WOMAN
2020|18+|2h 6m|US Movies
British actress Vanessa Kirby and Shia LaBeouf pair up to give us a performance worthy of an award in 2021. Prepare for the unstoppable tears, the emptiness that follows the credits and the indescribable chill that runs through you when a heartbreaking home birth leaves a young woman grappling with her new gut-wrenching reality. The chasm of grief will leave you struggling for breath.
Starring Vanessa Kirby, Shia LaBeouf and Ellen Burstyn
DARE ME
2019|16+|1 Season|Teen TV Shows
This is really a mix of every ‘cheer’ movie from the 1990s and early 2000s, and the cringeworthy film Jennifer’s Body. The series takes a very dark look into the volatile friendships, jealousies, loyalties and dynamics of a small town and its cheer squad. The series has a variety of rather new faces but we do have the loveable blue eyed Zach Roerig gracing our TVs in a more mature role.
Starring Willa Fitzgerald, Herizen Guardiola and Marlo Kelly
TINY PRETTY THINGS
2020|18+|1 Season|Teen TV Shows
Who knew the world of ballet could be so dark? Though its name suggests a more subdued delicate show, the series is anything but. Delve into the world of a young prima ballerina as she steps into her pointe shoes as the star attraction in the town’s ballet. Unknowingly the young woman drowns in the ballet’s world of lies, betrayal and cutthroat competition.
Starring Lauren Holly, Kylie Jefferson, Casimere Jollette
