    This movie changed biopics forever - The Social Network (2010)

    In this week’s episode of Lowkey Cinephile, I deep dive into The Social Network — David Fincher’s sleek, sharp, hauntingly brilliant portrayal of Facebook’s messy origin story. From Jesse Eisenberg’s icy performance to Andrew Garfield’s emotional explosion, from the razor-sharp Sorkin script to Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross’s haunting score, this is Cinema with a capital C. I talk casting. I talk betrayal. I talk soundtracks, Oscars, and why this is my yearly must-watch. It’s the biopic that set a new standard — and to me, it’s as close to perfect as cinema gets. Also… Andrew Garfield is back as a tech CEO? We’ve come full circle. 🎧 Press play. Let’s talk.

    Zac Efron Got Jacked and Then Broke My Heart

    This week on Lowkey Cinephile, we’re talking about The Iron Claw — aka the movie where Zac Efron got jacked and then absolutely shattered my heart. I break down why this film hit me so hard, from the raw performances to the quiet, crushing grief that lingers in every scene. It’s not just about wrestling — it’s about brothers, expectations, and the emotional weight of being the strong one. Also in this episode: The Devil Wears Prada 2 is happening, Keanu Reeves is playing a chaotic angel, Netflix is teasing the next Knives Out, and we finally have our new Harry, Ron, and Hermione. Let’s get into it.

    Habemus Papam, Habemus Opinions about Conclave

    In this episode of Lowkey Cinephile, I talk about Conclave — the beautifully tense political thriller that feels like a whodunnit… but instead of “who killed the pope,” it’s “who’s about to become the next one.” It’s sharp, quiet, stunning to look at — and somehow still got snubbed for Best Cinematography (yes, I’m mad). I dive into the power games, the silence, the tension, and the one scene that made me gasp. Plus: movie news you didn’t know you needed — from 10 Things I Hate About You sequels to Cannes chaos to MoviePass turning into fantasy football for film nerds. Also… the new pope may or may not have watched this movie. And that’s all I’ll say. 🎧 New episodes every weekend. Lowkey? Maybe. Cinephile? Always.

    Thunderbolts*: The Movie That Reminded Me Why I Love the MCU

    In this episode of Lowkey Cinephile, I talk about Thunderbolts — the new Marvel film that hit me harder than anything has since Endgame. From the moment I watched Iron Man in 2008, I’ve been deep in the MCU, for better or worse. And lately, it’s been… kind of a mess (looking at you, Secret Invasion). But Thunderbolts? It brought all that love back. This movie isn’t just about superheroes. It’s about depression, connection, and the weird, unexpected ways people become a family — even when they were never meant to. I talk about what this movie really means to me, why the Thunderbolts feel more like a family than the OG Avengers ever did, and how a film can be a superhero movie, a drama, a comedy, and a quiet therapy session all at once. Plus, I break down the biggest movie news of the week — from a new Lord of the Rings film to Netflix forgetting that the cinema still hits different. 🎧 New episodes every weekend.Lowkey? Maybe.

    Babylon Was Too Much... and That’s Why I Loved It

    In this very first episode of Lowkey Cinephile, I introduce the podcast and myself — I’m L.C., just a girl talking about movies like it’s a full-time job. I talk about Babylon (2022, directed by Damien Chazelle), why it’s criminally underrated, and how a film this loud and chaotic somehow captures the very soul of cinema. I also run through the week’s movie news, from Tom Cruise giving praise to Ryan Coogler’s Sinners to a Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson being in a Martin Scorsese movie.
