Tyler Perry’s "Straw", currently streaming on Netflix, is a volatile cocktail of social critique, melodrama, and searing urgency, propelled by Taraji P Henson’s powerhouse performance. The film plunges headlong into the merciless pressure cooker of systemic injustice and personal breakdown, following Janiyah, a single Black mother whose life unravels over the course of one catastrophically bad day.
When I think of July, I remember the silence. Not the kind that settles over a nation out of respect, but the kind that suffocates.
There is a peculiar charm to watching someone murder with the same poise they might use to frost a cake. That’s the Georgia Miller experience, which is equal parts molasses and menace. In its third season, Netflix’s "Ginny & Georgia" leans all the way into that contradiction, offering up a deliciously disorienting blend of teen angst, courtroom spectacle, and suburban noir. With a new showrunner in place and a fresh appetite for audacity, the show does not just continue its chaos, it weaponises it.
Bollywood has long been fascinated with father figures; stern, stoic, often feared, and rarely understood. But with time, the lenses and stories have softened. Over the last decade, a quiet evolution has been brewing on the big screen, one where the father is no longer just the breadwinner, disciplinarian or an almost antihero. He is a confidant, a co-conspirator, and, in many ways, a student of love, learning to grow with his children. This Father’s Day, we look at some iconic characters who challenged the rigid moulds of patriarchy, through their presence, patience, and a willingness to change. These are not heroes in capes, but fathers who became heroic simply by listening, learning, and loving better.
The Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) program is administered by the CFA Institute and is often considered one of the most prestigious credentials in the finance industry. While it is ideal for finance professionals, not all functions require it and hence, the CFA journey is not worth it for everyone. This guide explores who should consider the CFA, what value it adds to a career in finance, and what alternative qualifications might be worth considering.
The "Final Destination" franchise has always had a sick sense of humour. Somewhere between the hairspray fireball of 2006 and the acupuncture impalement of 2011, it found a rhythm: ordinary objects, operating according to the most banal physics, and conspiring to kill one in the most humiliating way possible. "Final Destination Bloodlines", the sixth and arguably most coherent instalment in the series, refines this formula while also taking a jab at our belief in logic and order. Directed with unhinged precision by Zach Lipovsky and Adam Stein, and scripted by Guy Busick and Lori Evans Taylor, "Bloodlines" is a prequel-slash-sequel with both feet planted firmly in absurdity and emotional gravitas.
If you have ever sat in a group of ten nervous candidates, all trying to out-charm, out-smart, and out-volume one another for a single job, you have likely been a gladiator in the corporate coliseum known as the Focus Group Discussion (FGD). Welcome to the recruiter’s favourite social experiment: where intellect meets improvisation, diplomacy clashes with dominance, and someone always starts with, “Hi everyone, let me begin by…”.
