Dear Utah Tech students, faculty and staff, I’m Lexy Borgogno, the editor-in-chief of Sun News Daily. This is my sixth semester on staff and my second year as EIC — and I’ve got a bone to pick. Every single semester, I have staff members come and tell me that fellow students and student leaders (even some […]
The only two things I knew about “Caught Stealing” was that the movie poster had a cat, and the catchphrase was “2 Russians, 2 Jews and a Puerto Rican walk into a bar.” Boy, was I surprised when I watched the film and found out it was about Hank Thompson (Austin Butler), whose punk rock […]
Soft lighting, blue paint, a hand-painted Zeus mural and the meráki definition are what you see when you step into Meráki Greek Grill in Santa Clara. Not only are you enveloped in the Greek aesthetic, but you’re welcomed by smiling faces that make you feel part of the Meráki family — meráki meaning to do […]
I’m no stranger when it comes to falling victim to nostalgia — and “Freakier Friday” is no exception. I’m not exaggerating when I say this is my FAVORITE Disney sequel to exist, even amongst the plethora of ’90s and 2000s comebacks. “Freakier Friday” revives the original body-swap film, bringing back Anna and Tess Coleman (played […]
A film that stars Michael B. Jordan and involves vampires was not on my 2025 Bingo card. Yet, “Sinners” is my favorite film I’ve seen this year. “Sinners” follows the story of twin brothers, Smoke and Stack, who move back home to Mississippi in the 1930s during the Jim Crow era. Together, they create and […]
Ever since I read “The Nickel Boys” my senior year of high school, it’s been my go-to book I recommend to anyone and everyone—I always thought I’d make it into a film, but someone beat me to it. From the genius mind of Colson Whitehead, the story follows Elwood Curtis, studious and on the road […]
Watching the live-action “Snow White” left one long-standing question in my mind: Who wanted this movie? Because I sure as hell didn’t and neither did anyone I know. By now, you’ve probably seen all the controversy surrounding “Snow White,” with the casting of Rachel Zegler and the CGI seven dwarfs. Throughout every step of production, […]

The majority of “Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy” had me thinking this was going to be a rom-com that left me feeling indifferent. To my surprise, the final 30 minutes of the movie hit me like a truck, which resulted in an emotional outpour. I adore the character Bridget Jones, played by Renée Zellweger, […]
Timothée Chalamet’s performance in “A Complete Unknown” is the only aspect of the film that makes it worth watching. “A Complete Unknown” is a biopic about singer-songwriter Bob Dylan and his folk music success, which turns into controversy when Dylan chooses to make and perform rock music. While an artist’s struggle of being bound to […]
