Intern Grace’s Team Pick: I am obsessed with how completely awful this movie is. I love it.
The Fish Child is a gripping tale of forbidden lesbian romance and a crime heist gone wrong. Maybe throw in some theft, a cute dog, human trafficking, and a gun fight and you have the whole package. The DVD is available July 26th.

“I thought Marylou was basically Janis from the Muppets, and I thought Dean Moriarity looked like Frank Zappa. I realize this makes no sense but I was 15 and still figuring stuff out.”
After a more-than-slightly-skewed trailer and over a year of Internet buzz, Darren Aronofsky’s latest film, Black Swan, garnered what critics called “a certain lesbian allure” due to what may or may not be a girl-on-girl love scene between co-stars Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis. And although this drove us to the theaters like moths to a flame (a lesbian, lesbian flame), moviegoers who actually witnessed Black Swan found that Aronofsky’s film is about much more. Exploring issues such as body image, pressure, and (yes) sexuality, Black Swan brings to light the societal pressures that create insanity and eventually causes audiences to wonder: is it insanity at all?

We all come across approximately infinite poorly written, ill-researched, patriarchal and offensive things on the internet each day; most of the time, we can let them slide with a shake of the head. Sometimes, though, you can’t. And that’s when you stop being polite and start getting real about youtube, (specifically Tanya Davis’s “How To Be Alone,”) Eat Pray Love, and dbags.
While Inception isn’t Christopher Nolan’s best film, it’s a taut psychological thriller that’s really only bogged down by its ambition to be all things to all summer moviegoers.
