Family Squares
Conceived and recorded primarily through a video chat platform, Stephanie Laing’s Family Squares attempts to connect with movie goers who have lost loved ones during the COVID-19 pandemic and have been restricted from a personal goodbye.

Promising Young Woman is a provocative call to arms that’s both committed to its cause and impossibly funny.

There’s still a brain behind the immaturity displayed by Mike (Adam Devine) and Dave (Zac Efron).
