"The Devil Wears Prada 2" is an Enjoyable Check-in with Our Favorite Fashionistas

Stacey Yvonne Creative — While we did see a lot more of Simone Ashley as Amari, it could also be said they just hired her to look fantastic in haute couture and I'm not mad about it.

"This Tempting Madness" Is a Twisty Thriller That's Stranger Than Fiction [REVIEW]

thathollywoodshow.com — "This Tempting Madness" is an exploration into Mia's journey towards the truth. No matter how (clinically) insane it may be. After the incident and recovery, the film thrusts Mia and the viewers into a sort of darkness. We don't know what's going on, we don't know who pushed us.

"Emilia Pérez" Shines at TIFF 2024

CherryPicks — Film critic Stacey Yvonne talks "Emilia Pérez" at TIFF 2024. I had a chance to speak with stars Karla Sofía Gascón and Selena Gomez about their recent shared win of “Best Actress” at Cannes and their happiness over their individual full-circle moments. I asked Gascón what type of role she wanted to play and she answered excitedly, “a ninja!” It’s fitting as the actress clearly has a flair for the dramatic and daring.

"The Substance": Horror and the Female Gaze

"The Substance": Horror and the Female Gaze

CherryPicks — Film critic Stacey Yvonne talks Caroline Fargeat's "The Substance" and why the director understands how to corral the grotesque and shape it into meaning... We can’t stop talking about The Substance! The hit horror film, which had its North American premiere at TIFF 2024, is now available to stream on MUBI. It's French director Coralie Fargeat’s second feature and, if it’s any indication of her future work, the vision of arthouse directors with an edge is in good hands. Fargeat’s vision is a bit of David Cronenberg, a taste of David Lynch, and a few dashes of John Waters for taste.

TIFF 2024: Women-Led Narratives from Male Writers & Directors

TIFF 2024: Women-Led Narratives from Male Writers & Directors

CherryPicks — Film critic Stacey Yvonne discusses five films from TIFF that are directed or written by men but feature women-led casts and narratives. Women’s stories have always been interesting and despiteimpressive box office numbers, book sales, and extreme popularity, it’s only recently that mainstream filmmaking as a whole is starting to take notice. Sure, no one is going to turn their nose up at a story of a man and his dog, but now we also want to hear the story of the woman who first swam the English channel (Young Woman and the Sea), a transwoman who was formerly the head of a Mexican cartel (Emilia Pérez), or a woman engaged in a spicy office romance (Babygirl).

Review: ‘Nickel Boys’ Makes it Personal

Review: ‘Nickel Boys’ Makes it Personal

Awards Buzz — RaMell Ross’s latest feature, Nickel Boys, tells an intentional story in a unique and experimental way. By using shifting POV perspective, Ross manages to personalize the story told for every audience member. It’s a hefty feat and one that depends on a perfect balance of story and technique to be successful. Thankfully, Nickel Boys employs both.

'Cowboy Carter' takes us back to reclaim Beyoncé's roots (REVIEW)

'Cowboy Carter' takes us back to reclaim Beyoncé's roots (REVIEW)

Out Magazine — Track-by-track, Out dives into genre-bending superstar Beyoncé's latest LP, Cowboy Carter. Growing up in the very mild, mild Midwest as often the only Black girl in various spaces, I just couldn't jive with country music. To be clear, I mean white folk country music. (And yes, there is a difference.) The country music I heard in the home infused with gospel and soul? Sure. The country music I heard while visiting my relatives in Oklahoma and Texas? I’d make fun of it with all the other kids, but it also became a part of me. So heading back to the Midwest to a country music bar to get greeted by a gigantic confederate flag with nary a blinked eye was not a culture I wanted to be a part of. And since most of my life was spent in that environment, I avoided it like the plague. Enter Beyoncé.

Pride.com — "He'd rather be hunting, f*cking, and going to the theater. Who wouldn't want to be doing that?" Mary & George is turning us all into history buffs — especially for the parts of history where the king and his lover are, well, in the buff. And on that front, the steamy Starz series is not letting us down.

10 straight actors who have played multiple gay roles

10 straight actors who have played multiple gay roles

Out Magazine — While we love seeing LGBTQ+ actors get as many opportunities as possible, these straight actors played the heck out of these queer roles! Last year was an amazing one for queer actors writing, producing, and starring in queer roles! And while we love to see our queer faves getting some action, we also love a verse king or queen who may identify as straight, but plays one heck of a queer character! Of course there’s the controversy of straight actors being called “brave” for playing queer roles or getting accolades when it was so hard for queer actors to get the same recognition. But out of that reckoning finally came multiple roles for queer actors that not only broke barriers, but painted them with glitter!
