Raya and the Last Dragon Star Kelly Marie Tran Talks Moving On After Star Wars

New DVD release, , , , ,
One of the darkest stains on the history of Star Wars, Disney, and fandom in general was the disgraceful treatment of Kelly Marie Tran, who played Resistance mechanic Rose Tico in 2017’s The Last Jedi and 2019’s The Rise of Skywalker. Starting almost immediately after she was cast and continuing through the release of The Last Jedi, Tran was the subject of hideous online abuse and harassment from a toxic subsection of alleged Star Wars “fans.” The constant attacks ultimately drove Tran off social media as members of the Star Wars cast and crew — as well as other actors…

Britt-Marie Was Here

Max SchindlerMovie reviews,
63-year-old Britt-Marie suddenly reconsiders her purpose in life after she discovers her husband of 40 years has been cheating on her. Accepting a supremely unglamorous job at a ramshackle youth center in the backwater town of Borg, she reluctantly takes on the impossible task of coaching the children’s soccer team to victory.

Marie Curie: The Courage of Knowledge

Max SchindlerMovie reviews, , ,
