Charlène Guignard and Marco Fabbri's free dance costumes at the 2024 World Championships, 2024 European Championships, 2023 Grand Prix de France and 2023 Grand Prix Final.

They skated to quite the medley of soundtracks: Emily, The Crimson Wing, The Theory of Everything and The Dressmaker.

In the last few seconds of their performance at Worlds, Guignard's skirt got caught in her blade and I watched on the edge of my perch, willing them to make a way through the pickle. And they did! But there's no denying her costume turned traitor that night.

I didn't hate The Watchers, it was really interesting!

For an unabashed nepo-baby movie, The Watchers is actually pretty solid. Produced by M. Night Shyamalan and written for the screen and directed by his daughter Ishana, the film doesn't hide from the fact that it's a family affair.

I won't go too deep into the plot so as to avoid spoilers, but I will say it kept my attention throughout the whole film. Being a Shyamalan film, there are a couple of nice twists, not too crazy but not horrible either.

The effects aren't the best, but definitely not the worst either. Ishana does a good job of using CGI, and her monsters, in moderation.

There are three main aspects of the film that I really enjoyed. First is the music, it's deep, gritting, and swelling. Very orchestral, and it elevates the whole film. Abel Korzeniowski is definitely a composer I'll be listening to more often. Second is the cinematography by Eli Arenson. I mean, the whole movie is basically an excuse to show off fantastic mirror shots. I'll be honest, I haven't seen symbolism through camera placement and cinematography in general like this in a while. The third thing I really loved was the location. In case you don't pick up on it, the movie takes place in Ireland. They let you know that, loud and clear, but it's worth it just to see the gorgeous landscapes. I can't wait to see beautiful screenshots and gifsets from this.

The performances were all pretty solid, nothing to complain about, but no significant standouts, at least not yet. I mean, I've thought Dakota Fanning has been amazing since War of The Worlds, and she doesn't disappoint here.

If there's one thing I've learned from the last two movies I've watched, it's don't go into the forest. Ever. For any reason. Alone, or with a bird, or with a group of friends. If the undead fireman sam version of Jason doesn't get you, The Watchers will.

As bewitching and mesmerizing as Frances O’Connor’s film, the Emily original soundtrack by Abel Korzeniowski perfectly encapsulates raw, compelling emotions. It’s one of the most haunting original scores of the year and one that deserves to be on everyone’s period drama list of favorites. (We aren’t the only ones who have a list, right? Because you should all have one.)

Korzeniowski’s compositions beautifully complement the film’s enthralling excavation of troubles and heartaches as they move listeners toward muddy grounds and worthwhile experiences. There’s something so achingly sad in nearly every track, but at the same time, like The Banshees of Inisherin’s original score by Carter Burwell, it’s easy to listen to. It’s easy to find ourselves getting lost in the tracks, allowing our fingers to type for hours on end as the music almost effortlessly inspires words to pass from thought to paper.
