Had another amazing night at the @chifilmfest for the Carey Mulligan tribute! There was a screening of her new film Wildlife which was actor Paul Dano’s directorial debut and also starred Jake Gyllenhaal. It’s a three character coming of age story that hits all the right notes. It was absolutely stunning and I flailed a few times because emotions, you know? This one smells like awards season for Miss Mulligan!
Megan chose @katemortonauthor’s The Clockmaker’s Daughter as her @bookofthemonth this month! . . . BOTM gives you the choice of five, FIVE, new releases each month! You can choose one for free, add another for $9.99 or you can skip the month! WHAT’S NOT TO LOVE? Are you a member of BOTM? What did you choose this month? Let us know! 📚
Last night’s screening of @thehateugivemovie at @chifilmfest was incredible and SURPRISE! @amandlasponsored was there along with the producer and director! Check out our stories before it expires for a review! . . . For those of you unaware of this story (and you should all read it), Starr witnesses her friend Khalil get shot by a police officer and what follows is the trauma and the hope that we can make a change when we find our voice. The film was an INCREDIBLE adaptation that had me in tears and laughing more than I anticipated. The cast is incredible, the writing was beautiful. @angiethomas gave us something so special and this film brings it to life. Will YOU be seeing it when it hits theaters October 19th?!

“You know, in three days of performances, I’ve not seen anyone make that connection. I love that.” Well, sir, I’m nothing, I repeat: NOTHING, if not thematic.
