Lavender Graduation blooms with celebration, resilience, safe spaces

Lavender spirals hung from the trees, floral decorations floated overhead and the neighborhood cat greeted guests as they gathered for Lavender Graduation April 25.  Utah Tech University’s LGBTQSO Club, in partnership with Encircle St. George, hosted Lavender Graduation to celebrate and honor LGBTQIA+ students and allies. Twelve graduates were recognized in person with cords and […]

Big Screen Verdict: ‘Michael’

As much as it hurts me to say, I didn’t walk out of “Michael” completely moonwalking on air. “Michael” follows the one and only Michael Jackson, from his days with The Jackson 5 up until his album “Bad.” In that time frame, we see Michael’s iconic performances and music videos, while also seeing his contentious […]

Big Screen Verdict: ‘You, Me & Tuscany’

It’s been a fat minute since I’ve seen a rom-com that actually feels like the early 2000s ones I grew up loving — but they are SO back. “You, Me & Tuscany” is the best newly released rom-com I’ve seen in years, and it felt nostalgic, despite being set in our day and age. The […]

OPINION | Big Screen Verdict: ‘Project Hail Mary’

Seeing “Project Hail Mary” made me realize one thing — I’ve never cried more over a rock in my entire life.  Based on the 2021 novel of the same name, “Project Hail Mary” is about Ryland Grace, a middle school teacher, who wakes up with amnesia on a spaceship. He realizes he is the sole survivor […]

Big Screen Verdict: ‘Wuthering Heights’

After watching “Wuthering Heights,” I can confidently say I haven’t left a theater feeling that devastated in years — and nearly a week after watching, that heartbreak still hasn’t loosened its grip on me. “Wuthering Heights” is inspired by the novel of the same name, written by Emily Brontë in 1847. There are obviously key […]

Big Screen Verdict: ‘Send Help’

When I first heard that Rachel McAdams AND Dylan O’Brien were starring in a film about being trapped on a deserted island, my immediate reaction was, “I’m sat.” “Send Help” is a dark, comedic, psychological thriller starring McAdams and O’Brien. Adams’ character, Linda, finds herself deserted on an island with her asshole boss, O’Brien’s character, Bradley. Linda proves she […]

Big Screen Verdict: ‘Marty Supreme’

With scenes that went viral on TikTok and hilarious dialogue, “Marty Supreme” is the kind of movie that pulls you in immediately and never lets you get comfortable. It wastes no time making you wonder, “What did I just watch?” Even though it’s set in the competitive table tennis world, the movie leans into satire, […]

Big Screen Verdict: ‘Wicked: For Good’

Over one year ago, I wrote my review for “Wicked,” rating it a 2.5 out of five stars — and I WISH “Wicked: For Good” would’ve changed my mind; unfortunately, I’m still not a fan.  “Wicked” follows the origin story of Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West, and Glinda the Good from “The Wizard […]

Big Screen Verdict: ‘Regretting You’

I expected to hate “Regretting You” because I didn’t like Colleen Hoover’s previous movie adaptation, “It Ends with Us” — yet, I left the theater pleasantly surprised. “Regretting You” follows Morgan and her daughter, Clara, as they cope with the death of Chris, Morgan’s husband and Clara’s father, who dies in a car accident. After […]

Big Screen Verdict: ‘Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere’

Despite Jeremy Allen White’s UNSETTLING brown contacts, “Deliver Me from Nowhere” is my FAVORITE music biopic I’ve seen for its atypical pacing — slowing down long enough to let you feel emotions. “Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere” is about rock ‘n’ roll singer-songwriter Bruce Springsteen. You know him from his hit “Born in the U.S.A.,” […]
