From major announcements to industry shakeups, we’ve got you covered on everything worth talking about from March.

Sister Cinema Swap: Sisters Kate and Emily have seen a lot of movies, but not as many as they would like. With their differing tastes in genres, they will work through their backlogs of movies they haven't seen yet. Both sisters talk about why they did or didn’t see the movie, the plot, and rate them out of ten at the end.

In this International Feature episode, we dive into the 2025 drama Sentimental Value, a slow-burning, emotionally layered film that leans heavily into family, memory, and the weight of the past. With powerful performances and deeply human character work, this one gave us plenty to unpack, from what worked beautifully to what left us a little conflicted.

• Stellan Skarsgård delivers a standout performance that anchors the film’s emotional core
• The family dynamics feel lived-in, with a believable sense of shared history and unresolved trauma
• Character interactions come across as raw, genuine, and emotionally vulnerable
• The pacing leans heavily into slow burn territory and we discuss whether it pays off
• Somber but engaging moments help break up the heaviness and keep things compelling
• The film pushes hard on a redemption arc for the father, which at times feels a bit too insistent
• A late-film scene between Agnes and Gustav stands out, and we explore whether that relationship could have been a stronger central focus than Nora’s

Letterbox'd Synopsis: Sisters Nora and Agnes reunite with their estranged father, the charismatic Gustav, a once-renowned director who offers stage actress Nora a role in what he hopes will be his comeback film. When Nora turns it down, she soon discovers he has given her part to an eager young Hollywood star.

On this episode of Late to the Party, we finally sit down to talk about the 2000 legal drama Erin Brockovich. From award-winning performances to its real-life environmental case, we discuss why this film became such a defining movie of the early 2000s and whether it still holds up today. We break down the story, the performances, and some of the storytelling choices that helped make the film both accessible and impactful.

• The powerhouse performance from Julia Roberts that ultimately won her the Academy Award for Best Actress

• The simplification of the real-life case the film is based on, and whether that choice made the story more accessible or took away from the complexity of the situation

• Underdeveloped relationships with some of the side characters, including Erin’s children and George

• Why the film works as a classic David vs. Goliath story where the little guy takes on a powerful corporation

• Erin’s dynamic with Ed Masry, played by Albert Finney, and why we thought the pairing worked so well on screen

If you’ve never seen Erin Brockovich or you’re revisiting it years later like we did, tune in as we break down what works, what doesn’t, and whether this real-life legal drama still packs the same punch.

Synopsis: A twice-divorced mother of three who sees an injustice, takes on the bad guy and wins – with a little help from her push-up bra. Erin goes to work for an attorney and comes across medical records describing illnesses clustered in one nearby town. She starts investigating and soon exposes a monumental cover-up.
