The voting has concluded and it's time to share the results and officially add these winners t...

This Steven Spielberg film is a seminal piece of work in the war film genre. 

Over the course of this episode, you'll hear these contributors talk about their relationship to the film, what their Mt. Rushmore of war films is, if they think this deserved Best Picture over Shakespeare in Love, and...

I had the chance to sit down with the incredibly talented Sam Davis, director of the Oscar-qualified short film The Singers (2025). 

 

We discussed his background in cinematography, his work on films like Didi (2024), the unusual but ingenious approach he took adapting a 19th century Russian short story using first-time actors found on the internet, and much more.

    Are You A Charlotte?

    In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
