    Revisiting the 2025 Oscars + Love is Blind Season 10 Review (The Brutalist, Anora, The Substance)

    This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we flashback to last year and watch some of the 2025 Best Picture nominees. Before we dive into some of those films, we give a thorough review of Love is Blind season 10 now that the finale has dropped. We reveal a couple connections to some of the people featured on this season as fellow Ohioans, and give all our thoughts on which couples we think will last. If Christine and Vic don’t last forever, we’ll actually lose our minds! Ailish brought some industry news and award talk after the Actor (SAG) Awards last weekend, and Hannah watched a few movies this week. She gives an honest review of Scream 7 as a fan of the franchise, and Annihilation with Natalie Portman. If you remember our podcasts from this time last year, you’ll remember that we loved The Substance and Anora. We’re happy to report that after rewatching these films, they still really hold up for us and we actually think we like them more after watching again. There’s still some debate within ourselves on whether we think Mikey Madison or Demi Moore should have won the Oscar, but both of them give great performances in these films. It might be hard to believe, but watching The Substance was almost more disturbing at times as we watched it at home! The Brutalist was a very discussed film last year, but it was one neither of us were able to see. After watching over three hours of this, we have to say we aren’t fans. Adrian Brody did a great job in his role, however, the role didn’t give very much. Make sure to listen next week as we give all our Oscars predictions and review some more films from last year’s Best Picture nominees!

    Black Stories Part 2 (The Butler, How Stella Got Her Groove Back, Get Out, Moonlight)

    This week, we’re celebrating Black History Month with Black Stories Part 2. We really have a great mix of genres and vibes here that made this week a fun one. Before we dug into our theme, Hannah shared her thoughts on her rewatch of Marie Antoinette and The Shape of Water. We also talked a little bit about our Oscar predictions after the BAFTAs, and talked about some of the criticisms of Sirat and our feelings on the film. Moving into Black Stories Part 2, we started with Get Out. This is a pretty iconic film that uses the horror genre to dive into some heavy discussions on race. We agreed this was our second favorite Jordan Peele film with Us being our top pick. How Stella Got Her Groove Back is a fun, romantic film that tries to send your emotions on a roller coaster. Whoopi Goldberg is shining in yet another supporting role, and it’s hard to deny the sheer beauty of Angela Bassett and Taye Diggs on screen.Our last two films of the week are pretty heavy. The Butler tackles the struggles that Black Americans have faced for decades and shows two different perspectives between generations. The heavy themes and visuals make this one a difficult watch at times, but we felt it would have been stronger if the focus was primarily on the Cecil character. Finally, we have Moonlight. What more can we say about his gut wrenching film? Some criticisms of this one say the main character lacks depth, but we feel the exact opposite and love how he is portrayed through the three stages of the film.

    The “Wuthering Heights” Experience + Sandra Bullock RomComs

    This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we share all our thoughts on “Wuthering Heights”. Much to our surprise, enjoying the movie is a controversial take! Hannah also watched Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model and Love is Blind Ohio. We watched ANTM when it originally aired, so maybe we have a different perspective on the early 2000s reality tv, but we aren’t hopping on the ANTM hate train. Ailish also shared that Mia Goth and Andrew Scott are set to film FONDA and Jacob Elordi is rumored to have been offered James Bond by Amazon. Sandra Bullock was America’s darling for a couple decades and continues to be a household name today. This week, we watched a couple early romcoms of hers and the one that’s the most popular. Hope Floats is one of Bullock’s earliest films and it stars the iconic Gena Rowlands. This one didn’t really work for us overall, and we didn’t feel the chemistry or script worked well. We were surprised to see Forest Whitaker directed this film after watching Waiting to Exhale last week! While You Were Sleeping actually has a very strange and creepy plot, but it’s excused by how sweet Bullock is. It’s a pretty classic 90s romcom that makes for a good comfort watch. Finally we have The Proposal. This film really put Ryan Reynolds on the map and it is arguably his best role. Bullock looks unbelievable in this film, but the jokes didn’t land as hard for us this time around.

    Breakup Films (Blue Valentine, Marriage Story, Waiting to Exhale,Someone Great) + The Smashing Machine Review

    Continuing with our February theme, Two Girl Cinema Club explored some Breakup Films this week. Some of these films were more iconic than others, but they all brought some unique topics and themes into our conversation. We’re also prepping for “Wuthering Heights” and can’t wait to see it in IMAX this weekend. Ailish also was able to see The Moment and gave her thoughts on Charli xcx’s new endeavor. We start Breakup Films week with Someone Great. This was very millennial, and not in a good way. Even though it was released in 2019, it felt really dated overall and we would have believed it if someone told us it was filmed in 2002. Waiting to Exhale was a blindspot for both of us, and we were glad we added it to our list. The cast of ladies were relatable and gorgeous, and we loved the inner dialogue of the women playing as a voiceover throughout. Marriage Story and Blue Valentine are in the same vein, but the latter was definitely more impactful. There’s something about the casting and script that feels so much more natural in Blue Valentine, and it’s impossible to not feel the chemistry between Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling.  If you love us, leave us comments on social media and YouTube, or write a review with your 5-star rating.

    Tragic Love Stories (Ghost, Titanic, A Walk to Remember, The Fault in Our Stars)

    February is here and we’re celebrating the month of love by watching some tragic love stories unfold on film. Before we talk about these tear-jerkers, we catch up on a few other films we watched this week. Ailish rewatched Uncut Gems and The Place Beyond the Pines, Hannah watched Megan 2.0 and Black Bag for the first time, and we chatted about the rumors surrounding the Safdie Brother’s split.  Ghost is a film with two stars at the center who were at the top of their game. If you say the potter’s wheel scene doesn’t make you swoon, you’re definitely lying! Whoopi Goldberg really steals the show here, but the longing and sorrow depicted by Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze really pulls at your heart strings. It’s hard to believe that the same person who created Avatar, created the masterpiece that is Titanic. What more is there to even say about this film? Leo and Kate Winslet have never looked better, and the score takes your breath away. Our last two films play on your emotions in multiple ways because terminal illnesses come into play. A Walk to Remember is the classic story of young love that is tragically broken apart too soon. Mandy Moore plays the preacher’s daughter well, and Shane West is the perfect bad boy turned good. Finally, we have The Fault in Our Stars. It’s very clear upon rewatching as an adult that this is based on a YA novel. This might have struck us as teens, but it doesn’t translate now that we’re slightly older. If you love us, leave us comments on social media and YouTube, or write a review with your 5-star rating.

    Matt Damon Week (We Bought a Zoo, Behind the Candelabra, Ford v Ferrari, The Rip)

    This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we celebrate Matt Damon! Before we watch a small sampling of his career, we talk briefly about Justin Bieber announcing his Grammy performance and the Wuthering Heights press tour and online discourse. Ailish shares her thoughts after a rewatch of One Battle After Another after watching it with her dad, and Hannah gives her take on Hedda. We’re also joined by a quick special guest to get their take on Sinners and its Oscar chances, give some thoughts on the awards race in general, and talk more about The Ugly Stepsister since Hannah was able to watch it. We have to be honest, Matt Damon is a household name, but he isn’t the first that comes to mind when we think about big movie stars. Well we were proven wrong this week after watching four of his films and realizing the man has range. We began with We Bought a Zoo which is a wholesome family film that really shows Damon’s fatherly side. Was he even acting here? We can absolutely see why the single moms at school were fawning over him because he’s the husband every woman would love to have. Behind the Candelabra takes us in a completely different direction where we see a side of Damon we’ve never seen before. We have to give a special shoutout to Michael Douglas who has unbelievable chemistry with Damon here! Ford v Ferrari is another role where we see Damon depict a real person. Even though neither of us are big car or racing fans, this is a film we think everyone would be entertained by. Lastly, we watched Damon’s newest film with Ben Affleck, The Rip. You can definitely tell this is a Netflix film, but Damon and Affleck still give great performances.

    Broadway Musicals + 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (Hamilton, Little Shop of Horrors, tick, tick…BOOM!)

    This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, Broadway comes to our living rooms as we explore some popular musicals. Before we dive into those, we discuss our thoughts on 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple and If I Had Legs I’d Kick You. Since it was a long weekend, we were both able to catch a matinee showing of The Bone Temple, and we were left wondering exactly where the final film in the trilogy is going to go. We both enjoyed the film, but feel you have to look at the 28 Years Later films separately from 28 Days Later. Last week, Hannah watched If I had Legs I’d Kick You, and Ailish was able to watch it so we could discuss it on the pod. There are definite comparisons to Die My Love, and we can’t get over Rose Byrne’s memorable performance. Ailish also caught up with The Ugly Stepsister and Hannah watched a couple documentaries and Bone Lake. When a musical is done right, it shows on the stage and the screen. Surprisingly, neither of us had seen Hamilton even though it was one of the most acclaimed musicals of all time. Since this was a filmed version of the stage performance, we really felt the magic of the original production and were so impressed by the actor’s abilities. On the flip side, we have tick, tick…BOOM! Unfortunately, this one didn’t land for seven though we did feel that Jonathan Larson’s story is compelling. Maybe the original, one-man show would’ve worked better, but this film adaptation was just trying to do too much. Lastly, we have Little Shop of Horrors. We might have a bit of a soft spot for this musical since we have fond memories of seeing our local high school production when we were in grade school, but this was our first time watching the film version. It’s so cute and well done, and the songs really stick with you! If you love us, leave us comments on social media and YouTube, or write a review with your 5-star rating.

    We Love LA! (Mulholland Drive, Nightcrawler, Boyz n the Hood, Tangerine)

    In this episode of Two Girl Cinema Club, we take a trip to the Westcoast! The films we cover this week showcase Los Angeles and prove why filmmakers are inspired by the city again and again. Before we dive into the City of Angeles, we touch on some highlights from the Golden Globes, some industry news, and two extra movies we watched this week: If I Had Legs I’d Kick You and Oh, Hi! We Love LA! To start this week’s theme, we watched Mulholland Drive. This is an iconic film by David Lynch that left us confused, mesmerized, and Googling fan theories. We both agreed that this neo-noir warrants a second viewing to really understand it. Nightcrawler is arguably one of Jake Gyllenhaal’s best performances. He’s so good in these freaky little roles, and the concept keeps you engaged the entire time. Tangerine is one of Sean Baker’s well-known, early films, and it was all shot on an iPhone. At first, it definitely showed and we weren’t sure about the acting/script. As it went on, the film grew on us, but there were some characters and storylines that worked better than others. Lastly, we have Boyz n the Hood. We couldn’t believe this film was made by a 23-year-old John Singleton. It’s one that doesn’t really have a solid plot, but because it feels so real, you end up so emotionally invested by the end. A true gem with some great performances.
