Send us a textWith the world in chaos, we try to make sense of movies. We catch up on some of the Oscar nominees (HAMNET, THE UGLY STEPSISTER, THE VOICE OF RIND HAJAB), discuss the new ANACONDA, and consider celebrity beauty standards and how they affect a 60-year-old Brad Pitt in F1. Plus, when are your content-grievances just power trips and why is Hollywood so slow to embrace a changing youth landscape?
