Some movies don't just tell a story — they create a feeling. Sofia Coppola’s Lost in Translation is one of those rare films. Released in 2003, it’s the perfect rewatch when you’re craving something atmospheric, slow, and emotionally resonant. Over twenty years later, it still captures a very specific kind of loneliness and unexpected connection in a way no other film quite does.

On May 5, 2000, Ridley Scott unleashed Gladiator into theaters — and the world of cinema was never quite the same. Twenty-five years later, the sword still gleams, the sand still stings, and Maximus Decimus Meridius remains one of the most iconic characters in film history.

There’s something timeless about watching someone stumble gloriously through their twenties, and no film captures that better than Frances Ha. Directed by Noah Baumbach and co-written with Greta Gerwig (who also stars), Frances Ha remains the ultimate black-and-white ode to being creatively lost, chronically broke, and hopelessly optimistic.

Get ready for a pulse-pounding dive into moral darkness with Heresy, the new short film from New Zealand filmmaker Veekrant Raj.

What if the very idea of family was illegal? What if raising your own child meant defying the state? These are the unsettling questions at the heart of Motherland, a powerful new thriller making its mark at the 2025 Julien Dubuque International Film Festival (JDIFF).

Before "main character energy" became a meme, there was Enid Coleslaw—green-haired, sarcastic, alienated, and iconic. This Sunday, we’re revisiting Ghost World (2001), the indie gem that nailed the weirdness of post-high school limbo long before social media could memeify it.

Some films whisper instead of shouting. Piggy Duster is one of those rare projects that stays with you long after the credits roll.
