Sorry, Baby
Oof. Getting to Sorry, Baby post-Oscars now, but this may have been the biggest snub of 2025. Julia Roberts put everyone on notice as to how good this film was at the Golden Globes in her award presentation, and well, Julia Roberts is never wrong, is she? It’s subject matter is heavy, but Eva Victor handles it with so much grace and humor, and the character she portrays feels very real, and unique. Must watch for cinephiles.

A24 film that popped up on HBO and needing to fill up a Sunday, so I gave it a watch. I had no idea what I was getting myself into with this one, and emotionally took me out of the rest of the day. An extremely heavy film with a lot of dark humor that is filmed beautifully and scored great. Anyone who is trying to watch the best films of the year, this needs to be on there!
