‘Bring Her Back’ Is the Perfect Kick-Off to Horror-Movie Summer

4 weeks ago | vogue.com | Taylor Antrim

When it opened in July of 2022, Talk to Me became one of those summer horror-movie phenoms: a scary flick everyone wanted to submit themselves to. Its sibling filmmakers, Danny and Michael Philippou, were young talents, their careers bred on YouTube—and their movie, about a bunch of Australian kids channeling spirits through a mummified hand, had hardcore shocks, a modest running time, and a clever concept: demonic possession as a viral trend.
Cory Michael Smith on ‘Mountainhead,’ Millennial Jeans, and Jim Carrey

And just like that, Cory Michael Smith is my favorite comedic actor. It started with Saturday Night, a perfectly fine if slightly overbusy ensemble film about the birth of SNL, hugely enlivened by Smith’s deadpan turn as Chevy Chase.

1 day agoThe web of favours owed is expanding. But who is the spider, and who is the fly? SPOILER WARNING: There are no discernible chess metaphors anywhere in this episode (the writers will have to work harder if they are to beat the record set, presumably, by Netflix’s The Queen’s Gambit). That said, the …
A 10-Year-Old Reviews Broadway’s ‘Stranger Things: The First Shadow’?

1 month ago | vogue.com | Taylor Antrim

What is Stranger Things: The First Shadow? This was not a question that bedeviled my 10-year-old son, happy as he was to be headed to Broadway and enfolded in the comfort of familiar IP. “I love Stranger Things,” William said. But I was apprehensive.
‘Notes to John’ Is Heartbreaking, Strange, and Unlike Anything Else Joan Didion Wrote

Products are independently selected by our editors. We may earn an affiliate commission from links. It has a great first line; most Joan Didion books do:“Re not taking Zoloft, I said it made me feel for about an hour after taking it that I’d lost my organizing principle, rather like having a planters’ punch before lunch in the tropics.”That could be the dry, lambent utterance of any one of Didion’s fictional heroines, or an opening confession in one of her classic essays.
‘Julie Keeps Quiet’ Is the Radical New Tennis Drama You Need to See This Spring

Mar 28, 2025 | vogue.com | Taylor Antrim

Before expressing my deep admiration for the Belgian tennis drama Julie Keeps Quiet, opening in New York and Chicago on March 28 (it will expand across the country a week later), I should come out and admit that I was not a fan of last year’s Challengers. Actually, it’s hard to imagine anyone loving both: Challengers is a sweaty, sexy tennis melodrama, a flight of fancy if ever there was one; Julie Keeps Quiet is a hyper-realistic depiction of repression, athletic ambition, and stress.
‘Wolf Hall: The Mirror and the Light’ Is Well Worth the Wait

Mar 20, 2025 | vogue.com | Taylor Antrim

I still remember when the advanced copy of Hilary Mantel’s 2020 novel The Mirror and the Light hit my desk. I was eager to read the final book in Mantel’s titanic Thomas Cromwell trilogy, a series that began with Wolf Hall in 2009 and continued with Bring Up the Bodies in 2012. But its length (more than 800 pages) was intimidating, and as I plowed through, I found myself only as intermittently gripped as I’d been by Mantel’s preceding volumes.

Skins’in giriş müziğini duyduğum anda kendimi tekrar ergenlik dönemimde, küçük televizyonumun birkaç santim önünde buluyorum (sesi kısmışım ki annem hem hafta içi saat 22.00’den sonra hala uyanık olduğumu hem de ekranın karşısında deli gibi seks yapan ve birbirlerinin hayatını mahveden İngiliz gençlerini izlediğimi fark etmesin). Ama zaten olay hep Bristol tayfasıydı, değil mi?

Quarter centuries are funny things – cause for reflection and sweeping, possibly premature judgements about what we’ve lived through. At Vogue, we’ve already looked back at the greatest fashion moments of the quarter century. So why not extend our gaze across the culture as well? Lord knows there are more than enough movies and books and memes and music to recollect. Read more: What's New On Netflix? Perhaps the richest field? TV.
