Quickening: Tradition Versus Independence

September 21, 2021 by Julie Levac Leave a Comment

Quickening

Sheila (Arooj Azeem), a Pakistani-Canadian university student, is trying to find her independence while dealing with traditional and overbearing parents.  As she experiences love, sex, and heartbreak for the first time, Sheila has to deal with the fallout of those things essentially on her own.  She doesn’t seem to mesh well with her family or her peers.  With the exception of one friend, Sheila doesn’t confide in anyone.

Directed by Haya Waseem, Quickening is an interesting look at the immigrant experience and the difficulties navigating cultural traditions versus independence. As a first generation Canadian, Sheila has certain values that she is expected to uphold.  In one scene, Sheila is asked by a family member if she has forgotten those values.  In many scenes, it’s apparent that Sheila is conflicted between her family life and the life that she is trying to create as an adult.  You can almost see her mulling this over in her head as she quietly goes about her business.

On top of her own experiences, we see Sheila’s parents going through their own difficulties.  As immigrants trying to make their way in Canada who desire to make their children happy, Sheila’s parents experience financial hardship which threatens to uproot them again.

Quickening

Sheila is a very contemplative character but doesn’t seem to let the audience in.  Personally, I found it difficult to connect with her.  Although, perhaps this speaks more about the tribulations that she was experiencing during this time in her life.  Even thought she was going through quite a complicated mental health struggle, Shiela was forced to keep it inside so she wouldn’t reveal anything to her family.

There were numerous unique camera angles throughout the film that would often cut off the heads of the characters.  In some scenes, I found this style creative but, in others, I felt like perhaps I was missing out on something. While I was very interested in one of the main plot points of the film, I didn’t feel as though it was fleshed out enough.  I wanted to know more about this particular situation.  Though the piece was coming to a crescendo, it still felt vague about its. intentions to me.

Quickening premiered on Saturday, September 12th, 2021 at the Toronto International Film Festival.

Violet: I Don’t Know Who I Am Anymore

September 16, 2021 by Julie Levac Leave a Comment

Violet (2021) - IMDb

In Violet, her feature length directorial debut, Justine Bateman blesses the screen with an incredibly thought provoking glimpse into the life of Violet Calder (Olivia Munn).  Violet, a seemingly successful and high-functioning woman, lives her life in fear.  Bending to the will of the voice inside her head, Violet limits herself in both her career and personal life.

Violet

Bateman, who is not only the director but also the writer and producer of this piece, uses text overlay to let us in on Violet’s inner dialogue.  The text quickly reveals her intense negative self talk.  Violet seems broken inside and yearns to feel “normal”.

Violet struggles with toxic family relationships.  Having previously lost her father, and never having a good relationship with her mother, she distances herself from her family.  It’s clear that her family doesn’t understand her or her way of life.  They label her as some ‘big shot Hollywood type’, and cannot wrap their heads around why she is so isolated from the family.  It’s almost as if Violet is struggling with her inner child during this time, not knowing whether she should do certain things because that’s what she’s been programmed to do, or embrace her adult way of thinking.

In her career, Violet feels indebted to the one who “discovered” or “made” her.  It takes no time to see that Violet is very talented in her field.  She is knowledgeable and has leadership qualities.  But imposter syndrome kicks in and Violet often doesn’t believe that her voice matters or that she deserves to have a seat at the table.

Luke Bracey, Olivia Munn in 'Violet'

Throughout the film, some of the text discusses Violet’s skin.  Violet clearly has her walls up and it’s like her skin is her protective barrier.  When Violet begins to change, she sheds her skin and is more exposed and vulnerable.  But also, and more importantly, free.  We read along as Violet’s skin gets damaged by the words and actions of others, but is strengthened again as she begins to stand up for herself and make choices that benefit her rather than others. 

This film normalizes the fact that it’s okay to grow, change, and be selfish in order to do what’s best for yourself.  It is relatable and important.  Despite the more despondent tone of the film, I felt quite hopeful at the end.  It’s a reminder to trust our instincts.  It’s okay to say no and speak your mind.  We don’t always have to censor ourselves in fear of the response of others.

Violet is now playing at TIFF ’21.

TIFF ’21: Jagged

September 14, 2021 by Julie Levac Leave a Comment

Jagged

Directed by Alison Klayman, Jagged is an absolute celebration of Alanis Morissette’s 1995 album, Jagged Little Pill. Jagged explores how Alanis started in the business, how Jagged Little Pill came to be, and the stardom that followed.  But what really stood out to me were the struggles of being a woman in the music industry in the 80s and 90s.

Alanis entered the industry at a very young age. In fact, she went through puberty during the beginning of her career. As her body changed, she gained weight and was immediately called out on it by the people who worked with her. This began a massive eating disorder journey for the pre-teen star. 

As she was very young at the beginning of her career, Alanis didn’t have much protection. Jagged briefly touches on her experience with older males in the business. Although she thought she was consenting in those moments, at 15, consent doesn’t exist. It was blatant statutory rape.

Executives wanted to keep Alanis in the pop princess box like she was back in her “Too Hot” days.  But once she started writing her own material, it was clear that she was going in a different direction.  People thought that her new image was concocted when, in fact, it was her true self coming through.  A lot of people didn’t like it and it was next to impossible for her to get signed during that time.

In Defence Of Alanis Morissette's 'Jagged Little Pill'

After the release of Jagged Little Pill, Alanis was immediately labelled as “too emotional”.  People didn’t understand why this young woman was so angry.  In reality, women are angry and emotional. We are human, capable of complex emotions. And Jagged Little Pill was Alanis’ outlet. People got scared because they had never heard anything like Jagged Little Pill before.  She touched on extremely intense and important topics, empowering other women to speak out and to become comfortable with conveying these emotions.  Alanis was (and is) an extremely gifted writer, unafraid of going inside herself.

As an aside, and on a personal note, I am aware that Alanis has spoken out about her feelings on Jagged. As someone who has experienced postpartum depression, I can completely appreciate the vulnerable state that she was in during the interview process for the film. However, I want Alanis to know how much Jagged Little Pill means to her fans and how much Jagged brought us all back to that time. After watching the film, my husband and I shed a few tears as we reminisced about what songs touched us, defined us, and broke us.  We feel like Jagged was a celebration of the album, but we also stand with Alanis.

Thank you for pouring your heart out and letting us in. 

Jagged premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival on Monday, September 13th, 2021.

Rainbow Baby: The Silent Pain of Miscarriage

June 2, 2021 by Julie Levac Leave a Comment

Rainbow Baby is a short film centring around the aftermath of miscarriage.  Written by Kate Fenton, directed by Monica Mustelier, and produced by Lisa Michelle Cornelius, Rainbow Baby is a raw glimpse into the emotions and reality of such a devastating occurrence. 

Susan (Kate Fenton) and Ria (Amanda Cordner) have clearly been struggling with infertility for quite some time.  With mention of injections and insemination, they were doing everything in their power to conceive. Susan battles with the emotions of the loss, while also experiencing the physical ramifications of actually enduring the miscarriage.  She tries to go through her days, running her ice cream shop, but it is impossible not to be fully consumed by this grief.

What’s fascinating here is that not only do we hear Ria’s point of view on the loss, but she explains how it feels to experience a pregnancy through the partner who is actually pregnant.  The biological versus emotional experience of the partner was very interesting and not something that often gets discussed.

The strain that such a loss can put on a relationship is real.  We see a hostility between Susan and Ria that I don’t think either of them intend on.  Susan understandably has the “you don’t know what it’s like” mentality, not taking into consideration that Ria has experienced the loss too.  They are both in pain.  It may be a different type of pain but at the end of the day they are in this together.  Isolation is easy but this is the time when you need your partner the most.

One thing that stood out to me was the disheartening fact that no one ever talks about miscarriage.  It is so common yet considered to be so taboo.  This is such an important topic to focus on because it is both incredibly heartbreaking and life changing.  Information is key.  

Despite the heavy nature of the film’s topic, there is hope amongst despair.  We are given a symbol of new growth and feel a reconnecting between Susan and Ria.  

As I watched the film holding my own rainbow baby, I couldn’t help but think back on how horrible it used to feel, and how different it feels now.  How time can make that sharp feeling in the pit of your stomach soften just a little.  It will never go away, but it’s an experience that shapes you and makes you realize how strong you are.

Look out for Rainbow Baby in the upcoming festival circuit!

Selena: The Series, Part 2

May 4, 2021 by Julie Levac Leave a Comment

selena netflix

Family is everything.  But what if your family doesn’t quite understand you?  What if they think your dreams are too much for you to handle?  

Part 1 of Selena: The Series gave us an in depth look into the early years of Selena y Los Dinos, and a glimpse into their lives as they became more and more successful.

Season 2 goes full speed ahead with their lives in the public eye and explores not only their professional ventures, but dives deeper into their personal relationships.

selena

The cast playing the Quintanilla family and the remaining Selena y Los Dinos members continue to flourish as we see an even greater chemistry between them.  Unsurprisingly, Christian Serratos still nails her portrayal of the incomparable Selena, navigating the different sides of Selena as she matures.  Noemi Gonzalez and Gabriel Chavarria shine as they become more comfortable in their roles as Suzette and A.B.  And we get a more personal and vulnerable side to Chris Perez, played by Jesse Posey.

It was clear that Selena had much respect for her fan base and that they were very important to her.  She refused to be disingenuous to them despite certain pressures to do so.  It would seem that the fans saw themselves in her and she therefore didn’t want to contribute to a disconnect between them.  As we learned in the Part 1, people are brought together through Selena and the music.

Selena was obviously owning the game in her music career, but she had other dreams too.  She never hesitated to explore those dreams, like fashion design and her boutique.  Though the more Selena took on, the thinner she was spread.  She was doing so much on her own that it became too much.  But telling her to stick to singing was the wrong way to get through to her.  She seemed stubborn in the best way, refusing to admit that her dreams were too much for her to handle.

As Selena becomes more popular on an individual basis, we can tell that the rest of the band feels distanced.  This is confirmed when Abraham (Ricardo Chavira) absent-mindedly stated that Selena’s voice is all that matters and that’s why the people come to see the performances.  This clearly rubs the band the wrong way.  It’s interesting to see how the family and band navigate this new dynamic of Selena’s individual success.  In fact, Selena isn’t the only one who is exploring opportunities outside of Los Dinos.  This overarching individuality seemed to permeate the band.  They even began recording individually, causing more of a divide.  It was clear that a spark was missing.  Thankfully, the band realized that they must come together to produce the best product.  They thrive most when they are all in it together and show their support for one another.

We also see how marriages are affected by the music career and touring.  Suzette’s fiance is patient and tries to travel to see her whenever he can.  A.B.’s wife is stuck at home with two kids and even when he’s in town, he’s barely home, spending most of his time at the studio.  And Chris feels like Selena doesn’t have time for him because she spends so much of her time working.

As someone who does not speak Spanish, I appreciated the addition of subtitles during the musical numbers as it really gives a better feel for the story and what the songs are about. 

All in all, the second installment of Selena: The Series is very entertaining.  It’s exciting to binge watch, whether you’re a super-fan or not.

Selena: The Series, Part 2 is streaming on Netflix beginning May 4, 2021.

One Night in Miami: History for Today

January 17, 2021 by Julie Levac Leave a Comment

Regina King flexes her incredible directorial skills for the first time in a feature film by bringing Kemp Powers’ stage play, One Night in Miami to the big screen (or little screen, as it were).

One Night in Miami is a fictional take on a meeting between real life friends, Malcolm X (Kingsley Ben-Adir), Cassius Clay (Eli Goree), Jim Brown (Aldis Hodge), and Sam Cooke (Leslie Odom Jr.) as they celebrate Clay’s title victory in 1964. At this time, these four very successful and world-renowned black men were at pivotal moments in their lives and careers.  Despite their stature, they continued to witness and experience the racism that was rampant in the 60’s, and still plagues us to this day.

Malcolm X was at a crossroads with the Nation of Islam and was in the process of pursuing his own branch of the Muslim faith.  As adversity continued to rise, he was growing weary from oppression, including numerous death threats.  Even so, he continued to be as passionate as ever about his activism and was invested in helping Cassius Clay transition to the faith.  

Clay, a confident and free-spirited man, was now a world champion boxer, and was quietly practicing as a Muslim under the teachings of Malcolm X.  He initially seemed timid about going public with his faith, and seemed to struggle when he finds out about Malcolm’s tribulations.

At the peak of his football career, Jim Brown was in the process of transitioning to acting.  We see a shocking hypocrisy with Jim’s backstory when he meets with a benefactor who is kind and welcoming to his face but then admits that they don’t welcome black people into their home.

Sam Cooke was the ultimate 60’s pop star who, according to Malcolm X, seemed to have his foot in the door of the white man.  Malcolm took issue with the fact that Sam wasn’t using his platform to speak on the civil rights issues facing the black community.

When these four men are in a room alone together, it sparks deep and passionate conversations about faith, civil rights, racism, and freedom.  As this was a stage play, we are blessed with numerous impressive monologues from each character.  This is an extremely emotionally driven piece and it certainly makes you think and compare the world they were living in with today’s culture.

One thing that Malcolm X said that struck me was that there is no reason for anyone to be on the fence anymore.  There are literally people dying in the streets everyday.  Black people are dying everyday and a line has got to be drawn in the sand.  This is so shockingly relevant to society today.  This is unfortunately the world we continue to live in and the world that we must change. 

One Night in Miami was a very impressive film that is not only entertaining but extremely relevant and important.  Each performance was incredible.  From the footage I have seen of these men in real life, the acting was spot on.  They had great chemistry on screen.  You believed their friendship but you also believed their disagreements.  And perhaps we can take a note from these men in the way that they support each other, yet don’t hesitate to call it out when there’s an issue and a potential for growth.

One Night in Miami is currently streaming on Amazon Prime.

Selena: The Series – They Come Together In You

December 3, 2020 by Julie Levac Leave a Comment

Netflix announces release date for 'Selena: The Series'

Even though first thing I thought to do when reviewing Selena: The Series was to compare it to the 1997 film, I soon realized that this would be completely unfair.  The film was a great glimpse into Selena’s life and career and was released just two short years after her death.  Wounds were fresh.  Now, 25 years after her death, we can truly see the impact that Selena had and continues to have on the world.  Through numerous memorials, statues, museums, and festivals in her honour, Selena’s legacy continues to burn brightly through generations.  While the movie was merely a snapshot, the series is a much deeper look into the lives and careers of Selena and the Quintanilla family.  (In fact, two of the executive producers of the series were Suzette and A.B. Quintanilla, Selena’s siblings, which proves that this passion project had the magic touch of the family.)

Selena the Series TV Show News, Cast, Release Date

You can’t choose just anyone to play a legend like Selena.  I was pleasantly surprised and thoroughly impressed with Christian Serratos.  Serratos has a very special air about her that mirrors Selena’s presence and she was able to master Selena’s cadence and idiosyncrasies without taking it over the top.  She was believable and respectful in her portrayal.

As young Selena, Madison Taylor Baez was impressive, and her voice blew me away.

The actors who portrayed the family, including Ricardo Chavira, Seidy Lopez, Gabriel Chavarria, and Noemi Gonzalez, had a lovely onscreen dynamic that rounded out the cast nicely.  They were a believable family.

Selena: The Series gives us a much broader view of the Quintanilla family’s journey through the music industry.  From the early years when they were just learning, through to their first record deal, award, and onward.  What largely stood out to me was the overarching theme of determination and dedication. This was largely seen through the father, Abraham (Ricardo Chavira).  The Quintanilla family was faced with tremendous financial adversity that would have deterred most from continuing to pursue this path.  Yet, time after time, they figured out a way around their issues and continued to press forward.  No matter what, this was the path that they chose and they were going to make it work.

It is so special to see the Quintanilla family bond.  Watching them navigate the tumultuous music industry and continuously sticking together was heartwarming.  Like us all, they may not have been a perfect family, but they had faith in one another and supported each other, which is too often forgotten nowadays.  

It was beautiful to see how the Mexican and American cultures intertwined through this story.  As Abraham said to Selena; “They come together in you.”  This beautiful statement really resonated with me and only made me think of how many other people from different countries would be brought closer through Selena.

Showcasing Selena’s real voice in the musical numbers, Selena: The Series is sure to attract an even broader audience to her music, continuing her legacy even further.  And with story lines including success, fashion, and forbidden love, Selena: The Series is going to be an entertaining ride.

Voices of Fire: The Unicorns of Gospel

November 20, 2020 by Julie Levac Leave a Comment

Voices of Fire English Docuseries Is Streaming Online watch on Netflix

Based in Hampton Roads, Virginia at Faith World Ministries, Voices of Fire is the newest Netflix reality show and focuses on Bishop Ezekiel Williams’ vision of a diverse and inspirational gospel choir.  He gathered an expert team including a musical director, vocal coach, choir master, and his nephew, Pharrell Williams, in order to find the most talented group of gospel singers arounds.  (“Unicorns”, as Pharrell called them.)

Netflix 'Voices Of Fire' Sets Pharrell Williams Gospel Choir Search –  Deadline

Bishop Williams wasn’t just looking to form a singing group.  His goal was clearly to have his message reach the masses.  His dream was to tour the world with this choir, stating that “music transcends racial divide and cultural boundaries”.  He expressed how people won’t sit down and listen to a sermon but they’ll listen to gospel music and receive the same message. He believed music makes the message more palatable.

It’s not long into watching Voices of Fire that you start feeling all kinds of emotion and it’s impossible not to feel the music in your soul.  Honestly, some of the voices that audition for the choir are the most beautiful you’ve ever heard.  

Hear emotional 'At Last!' rendition on Pharrell's 'Voices of Fire' | EW.com

Apart from these voices, the power comes from hearing the back stories of those who audition.  Some of them experienced the most unimaginable hardship.  It was often heartbreaking, but special to be able to get a glimpse into what made them who they are, and what brought them to music.  Those past experiences truly bleed into their music and increase the emotion that much more.

As someone who has been involved in church choir, I can vouch for the fact that it is a challenging yet beautiful experience.  When all of the voices come together in harmony, it’s powerful.  Religious or not, you can’t not feel it. 

Voices of Fire is a special journey to witness.  It’s available now on Netflix.

SPLINTERS: Struggling with Our Self

October 6, 2020 by Julie Levac Leave a Comment

Sofia Banzhaf in Splinters (2018)

Upon the death of her Father, Belle (Sofia Banzhaf) returns to her childhood home in gorgeous rural Nova Scotia after seven months away and is forced to face her past, including an antagonistic Mother, Nancy (Shelley Thompson).

This film is largely to do with sexual identity. Belle had previously gone through the process of coming out to her family, and although they were not particularly accepting, they were used to the fact that she chose to be with women. When living in the city, it seems as though Belle was comfortable in her own skin and confident in who she is, but when she returns to her small town, she seems to struggle with hiding her true self.

During this visit home, we learn that Belle is hiding the fact that she is in a heterosexual relationship with a man, Rob (Callum Dunphy). It’s clear she doesn’t want to give her mother the satisfaction of knowing this information. And I think Belle understood the importance of not making this visit about her, given her father’s death.

We see a lot of small town small-mindedness in this film, particularly in terms of homosexuality. When Rob comes to visit and is introduced as Belle’s “friend,” and despite not knowing that they are already together, Belle’s mother tries to convince Belle to date Rob so she can “fix it,” her sexuality. During a later discussion with Belle, Rob calls Belle “straight.” When Belle corrects him and says that she isn’t, he says “you are right now.” Even though Rob isn’t from the small town, and he seems accepting of Belle, he still seems to have a small-minded view of her sexuality.

There was also a very intriguing flashback scene where Belle remembers her father’s reaction to her coming out to him. He admitted that he and Belle’s mother were bigots: “We’d be bored if the world was full of people we approved of.” But he tells Belle she doesn’t need to be afraid of it and to be braver than him.

I would be remiss if I didn’t mention Belle’s brother, Greg (Bailey Maughan).  He added a much needed touch of comedy to this heavy film.  He felt like an authentic Canadian young man who is coming to terms with the death of his father and navigating through becoming the man of the house.

Image result for splinters movie 2018

We see a lot of attempts at navigating their new family dynamic. Not only is Belle navigating her own personal struggles amidst this tragedy, but Nancy is struggling with how to do life alone without her partner. She is forced to navigate a new found independence and even has to learn how to pay the bills.

During the post-funeral gathering back at the house, we are welcomed into a Maritimes singalong, a heartfelt and heartwrenching scene where attendees gather and sing modern folk in memoriam. This scene was so organic I forgot I was watching fiction. It will give you chills and immediately make you research Stewart Legere, a beloved Halifax artist who not only contributed the score to the film, but appeared in various scenes.

Originally a stage play written by Lee-Anne Poole, director (and writer of the screenplay) Thom Fitzgerald executed the transition to screen well. He kept the setting centered around the kitchen (as would be the case on stage) but balances it well with other rooms, their farm, and the beautiful Nova Scotian landscapes.

Cinematically, one of my favorite parts of the film were the flashbacks/memories. They were interspersed in the scenes so we experienced them just as Belle was. We see her Father lifting young Belle on his shoulder to pick apples from their orchard, her Father cutting wood and fixing a car. It was very special.
