On our screens in 2025, there was no shortage of women overcoming seemingly insurmountable odds. Linda (Rose Byrne) in “If I Had Legs I’d Kick You,” Agnes (Jessie Buckley) in “Hamnet,” and Willa (Chase Infiniti) in “One Battle After Another,” are just a few examples. Agnes (non-binary Eva Victor) in “Sorry, Baby” (A24), is another.
Since its world premiere in 1891, Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen’s tragedy “Hedda Gabler” has been adapted for the big screen more than a dozen times in multiple languages. In the extremely queer “Hedda” (MGM/Amazon), filmmaker Nia DaCosta (2021’s “Candyman” and the forthcoming “28 Years Later: The Bone Temple”) transplants the action from Norway to England, and from the late-19th century to the mid-20th century with riveting results.
It’s fitting, isn’t it, that Osgood Perkins, son of the late bisexual actor Anthony Perkins, should make a name for himself in the realm of cinematic horror.
For the past few years, South Florida has been in the news, and often not for good reasons, such as the 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. However, as anyone who lives in or visits the Broward County region, which includes Fort Lauderdale and Wilton Manors, can tell you, there’s more to it than the occasional Florida Man story that crosses the wires.
There are movies that entertain, and then there are movies that feel simply feel like they comfort you. "Zootopia 2" is absolutely a mix of both, but mostly the latter. It’s a bright, heartfelt reminder that even in the most chaotic seasons, stories can help us smile again.
Gay filmmaker Ira Sachs never ceases to surprise us. With movies such as the period infidelity drama “Married Life” to his New York real estate trilogy – “Keep The Lights On,” “Love Is Strange,” and “Little Men” – to his bisexuality exploration “Passages,” Sachs has kept viewers engaged since the late 1990s.
It’s hard to imagine a more suitable person than trans lesbian Tommy Dorfman to direct and write the movie adaptation of “I Wish You All The Best” (Lionsgate), based on the Y/A novel by non-binary writer Mason Deaver. Dorfman brings all the necessary sensitivity and perception to the project.
Sometimes the arrival of a movie into our lives is so perfect, it feels like a wish coming true.
“Sort of” based on a chance Sally Kirkland encounter, “Sallywood” (FanForce/Buffalo 8), the feature-length debut by Xaque Gruber, feels like a vintage indie movie. Low budget, quirky, naïve, and unintentionally annoying.
When we last left Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo) and Glinda (Ariana Grande) in “Wicked,” the former defied gravity and took to the western sky, leaving her BFF/nemesis behind in Oz.
