    New Moretti single dropping titled Pubes in my Pradas. 

    Honestly the more I think about this one, the more I’m disappointed by it. I could point to pieces of media that answered every question this movie asked in a better, stronger way.

Crispin Glover was unsettling to me in a way that I attribute to him and him alone. But Alexandra Daddario, Taissa Farmiga, and Sebastian Stan all pulled performances that I enjoyed more than anything else I’ve seen them in. These roles showcased a range and I was delighted to…
