    In part two of our Queer Love Stories series, Nick and Bella delve into an extraordinarily underrated documentary and two brilliant romcoms that highlight some of our favorite queer love stories in cinema.

    Nick starts with Peter Friedman's Silverlake Life: The View From Here, a brutally intimate video diary that documents Tom Joslin and Mark Massi's remarkable love story and their painfully real experience living with AIDS in the early '90s.

    Next, Bella introduces Alice Wu's Saving Face, an incredibly heartfelt mother-daughter story and a hilarious romcom that tackles social and cultural stigmas head-on.

    We finish the series with a recommendation from Nick's hidden gem vault: the Swedish coming-of-age romcom, Show Me Love (also known as Fucking Åmål).

    These are three absolute must-watch films! Let us know what you think of this episode and share your thoughts on these movies!

    We've finally reached the grand finale of our Pixar Extravaganza!

    In this episode, Nick, Bella, and Max discuss under-appreciated gems, the groundbreaking evolution of Pixar's animation technology, and the increasingly pertinent "spoonful of sugar" message in Pixar's most sci-fi film.

    Max starts us off with his second movie pick, Pixar's criminally underrated, Kurosawa-inspired film, A Bug's Life.

    Next, Bella hits us with an in-depth appreciation of her all-time favorite Pixar film, Monsters, Inc.

    And Max concludes the episode with his third Pixar pick, the timeless masterpiece, WALLE.

    Let us know what you think of these films and tell us your top three favorite Pixar movies!
