"The next one I’ve given is a given. It’s Star Wars. It’s definitely a part of my childhood. It’s hard for me to pick — I think Empire is probably my favorite of the three. But if I was to pick one, I think the first Star Wars would have to be the one, because that’s the one that I remember most. I was a Star Wars fanatic growing up. I guess I still am. Pretty much for everybody who grew up in the 1980s as well, it’s a symbol of their childhood. And most people — it reminds me back home in Ireland it used to be on every Christmas. It was sort of… You got all the action figures and all that kind of stuff. And it was just an incredible, incredible movie, and then when [the others] came out, they were sort of events when I was a teenager — that you wanted to go see them. Even if they weren’t as good."

"Obviously that's a great soundtrack, and also my favourite blaxploitation film. I kind of remember growing up [thinking] blaxploitation films were silly, like I remember, I'm Gonna Git You Sucka, but then once I started getting into them, I was like, oh wow, they are really political movies that don't really exist any more, and what I wanted to highlight was the score by J. J. Johnson. He's pretty much up there with Quincy Jones, but I would love to see a biopic about someone like that who has this really long career spanning from bebop and going to Hollywood and starting to score for blaxploitation films towards the end of his career. These guys are just genius arrangers, composers, players, and while their struggle was within the Hollywood system, it's not like it was a face you know from a college dorm poster like Miles Davis or something - it could be played by anybody you know."

By Sara Snow
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

While Caroline comes to terms with the academy’s latest revelations, she’s quickly coming to realize the only people she can TRUST are her friends.

As they start to unravel the extent to which the headmistress—Caroline’s aunt—will go to cover up the truth, they band together to try and figure out why. With Caroline’s powers growing by the day, she struggles with her sense of self

...while also feeling torn between her complicated feelings for both Corbin and Aldrick.

As Caroline refuses to give up on the hope she will see her brother and mother again, she must listen to her friends if she’s to get to the bottom of what’s happened to them

I really like this little series it packs so much into a short space! Leaving you wanting a bit more every instalment.
