                                                 .  .  .  just random songs that relate to jungeun somehow  .  .  .

        001 : THE TERRIBLE ADULTS byTOKYO INCIDENTS 

 adam and eve would toss the apple away the earth would turn the other way you’d live afar on some barren star but down below you might hear us laughing

    funky song with a carefree, cool vibe that jungeun hopes she exhibits. lyrics relate to her     
            current whereabouts, trying to find her place in the endless pantheon of stars.  

                            002 : CIRCUS by BRITNEY SPEARS

there’s only two types of people in the world the ones that entertain and the ones that observe

   god tier pop song that needs no explanation. in her warmup playlist and probably yours too.
    she’s no stranger to spotlight and to be honest, she doesn’t know what she’d do without it.

                                            003 : IN MY HEAD by ARIANA GRANDE 

my imagination’s too creative they see demon, i see angel, angel, angel without the halo, wingless angel

   not a song she’d dedicate to someone but rather, a song that someone may dedicate to her.
    she may leave someone in the dust but no one really expects that from someone like her.  

                                                               004 : STRANGER by FLOWER 

 everyday, every night, do you not feel like being captured? have you gotten into the flock, because you do not want to be alone?

  cool, future bass song with a message about individualism. jungeun values individualism. as          the song says, i am not one of them. yet, she doesn’t actually want to end up alone. 

                      005 : CONSIDERATION by RIHANNA (ft. SZA)

 i gotta do things my own way darling you should just let me will you ever respect me? no 

   a song by one of the coolest individuals in music, known for forging her own pathways and         blazing trails. jungeun hopes that she could do the same in an industry that’s not as fluid.

Isabel (Michelle Williams) has dedicated her life to working with the children in an orphanage in Calcutta. Theresa (Julianne Moore) is the multimillionaire head of a media company who lives with her handsome artist husband (Billy Crudup) and their two adorable twin boys in New York. When word comes to Isabel of a mysterious and generous grant for the financially struggling orphanage, she must travel to New York to meet the benefactor—Theresa—in person. And when Isabel is spontaneously invited to Theresa’s daughter’s wedding, Isabel discovers a connection to Theresa that takes her on an unexpected journey into her own past. Based on the Academy Award–nominated film by Susanne Bier.

Directed by Bart Fruendlich, After the Wedding isn’t the first we’ve seen of power duo Fruendlich and Moore. The two first met on the set of The Myth of Fingerprints, which premiered at the 1997 Sundance Film Festival, then a few years later with World Travelerat the 2002 Sundance Film Festival (seen above celebrating Fruendlich’s 27th birthday). They married shortly after in 2003 and have been together ever since, acting and directing side by side.

Every frame of Honeyland pulses with the cycles of life and glows with the film’s subject, Hatidze’s, magical vitality and optimism. This visually sumptuous, vérité glimpse into a forgotten world is an ode to two endangered and priceless treasures: human decency and the delicate balance of nature.

With honey in tow, directors Tamara Kotevska (center) and Ljubomir Stefanov (2nd from left) and the Honeyland team premiered their documentary during the 2019 Sundance Film Festival. The film took home multiple World Cinema Documentary awards including the Grand Jury Prize and two Special Jury Awards for cinematography and impact for change.

Honeyland opens in select cities on Friday, July 26.

After the record-breaking sales of the 2019 Sundance Film Festival, Festival films are steadily rolling out for the summer. This month, escape the heat—in theaters or on the couch—and catch three brand-new Festival releases: ShareDavid Crosby: Remember My Name,and The Farewell.

A heartfelt celebration of both the way we perform family and the way we live it, The Farewell, opening in theaters July 12, masterfully interweaves a gently humorous depiction of the good lie in action with a thoughtful exploration of how our cultural heritage does and does not travel with us when we leave our homes. 

Writer/director Lulu Wang imbues The Farewell with warmth and knowing wit, while the uniformly excellent ensemble cast (anchored by a breakout performance by Awkwafina) invites us to share this extended clan’s joy and sorrow—and to feel, for the length of this remarkable film, like a part of their family.

Late Night is now playing in select cities and opens nationwide on Friday.

Director Nisha Ganatra and screenwriter Mindy Kaling premiered Late Night during the 2019 Sundance Film Festival and it went on to be one of the Festival’s biggest deal earners of the year.

“So much of this movie is about being a fan and being on the outside of the entertainment business,” says Kaling. “That story has been told many, many, many times by 52-year-old white men, and I love all those movies. And as a comedy nerd I’ve always identified with them because it was the closest thing that I could identify with. There was no one like me making those kind of films.” - Mindy Kaling from Variety

Emma Thompson brings pathos and amusingly severe charm to the pantsuit-clad Katherine Newbury. Smartly written by Mindy Kaling and snappily directed by Nisha Ganatra, Late Night takes on white privilege, entitlement, and a culture veering toward crassness and conservatism. Questioning how women in power are “supposed” to act, it delivers a winsome, sophisticated comedy about the times in which we live.

Dr. Ruth Westheimer, the iconic sex therapist and subject of the recent documentary Ask Dr. Ruth, turns 91 years old today. The documentary premiered at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival, and in it Dr. Ruth tells her incredible story with a candidness and charm unsurprising to anyone familiar with her famous radio show Sexually Speaking. The film also delves into her personal trauma of being orphaned by the Holocaust at 10 years old and how that led to a lifelong passion for helping others. Ask Dr. Ruth is currently available for streaming on Hulu.

Following the Satanic Temple’s announcement that the IRS now recognizes it as a church, Penny Lane’s

Following the Satanic Temple’s announcement that the IRS now recognizes it as a church, Penny Lane’s Hail Satan? opens in theaters nationwide this month. “That recognition means the group can now get the same benefits as religious organizations —including tax exemption and protection from discrimination,” reports the Salt Lake Tribune.

One of the less traditional political documentaries to come through the 2019 Festival, the film explores the Satanic Temple and its grassroots political activism, which fluctuates between the rational and the absurd in its efforts to uphold the division between church and state. Lane’s portrait takes their principles seriously and forces audience to challenge their ideas of what a “normal” or “reasonable” religion is. 

Watch a conversation with Director Penny Lane and Satanic Temple Co-Founder Lucien Greaves below, and find Hail Satan? showing at a theater near you!

First-time feature director Nia DaCosta will see the official release of her film Little Woods tomorrow, April 19. Little Woods is a blend of familial drama, neo-western, and crime thriller with a focus on the perspective of women navigating highly politicized conflicts like the opioid crisis and restricted access to reproductive health care. The film stars Tessa Thompson and Lily James as estranged sisters struggling under the strains of poverty in a North Dakota oil boomtown. Thompson has been involved with the film since the 2015 Sundance Institute Directors Lab, where she volunteered her time to be a resource actress for the project. DaCosta is currently directing the ‘spiritual sequel’ to the 1992 horror classic Candyman.
