Film Highlight
A Complete Unknown

Lil Timmy has arrived. We knew he was special. But this performance cements his position as one of the greats of our generation. You don't need an Oscar boy. You've already transcended that and much more. Take a bow.

"In the early 1960s, 19-year-old Bob Dylan arrives in New York with his guitar and revolutionary talent, destined to change the course of American music. Forming his most intimate relationships during his rise to fame, he grows restless with the folk movement, making a controversial choice that reverberates worldwide."

TV Highlight
Adolescence
Netflix

Stephen Graham (Time - another fantastic show btw) has somehow managed to find a way to enter the culture war arena, if not fight back against the dangerously alarming misogynistic hate fuelled rhetoric, that has infiltrated society today. A fantastically relevant show with some nail biting performances.

"A family's world turns upside down when 13-year-old Jamie Miller is arrested for murdering a schoolmate: the charges against their son force them to confront every parent's worst nightmare."

There's a whole lot to look forward to this year. This list barely scratches the surface. But, I hope to add more, as and when we get reactions from Film Festivals over the next couple of months.

P.S. Best viewed on larger screens/ rotate to landscape mode.

Curated Curiosities

The Hollywood Reporter India
"You've Already Judged Me"
How Jim & Tillotama REALLY Met

A refreshingly candid, smart, witty and insightful conversation. This right here is real talent. Not "Aap Aam Kaise Khate Ho?"

P.S. Kudos to Sneha Menon for letting the conversation flow.
