Imani Lewis (First Kill) and Laya DeLeon Hayes (The Equalizer) have attached to star in Pure, the debut feature from writer-director Natalie Jasmine Harris. 🎞️⭐️
Pure is a coming-of-age story set within the rarely depicted world of Black cotillion culture in suburban Maryland. When Celeste (Lewis), a 17-year-old slam poetry prodigy, is uprooted from her Bay Area community and moved to Maryland’s elite Black suburbs, she’s forced to participate in a prestigious cotillion season. As she prepares to debut into high society, she must confront her burgeoning queer identity and decide what kind of coming-out story she wants for herself.

At least 254 people have been killed and another 1,165 have been injured in Israeli attacks across Lebanon on Wednesday, a Lebanese Civil Defense spokesperson confirmed to @ABC News. https://t.co/VE2pLdgTea
Al Jazeera correspondent Mohammed Wishah was killed in an Israeli strike that targeted his vehicle in Gaza City.
His death brings the number of Palestinian journalists killed since October 2023 to 262, amid violations of the US-brokered “ceasefire.”

this is interesting to me bc it kinda suggests that the writers really didn’t care to explore the messiness in langdon’s recovery and just wanted to handwave it away so that he’s just Healed but patrick was the one who fought for a more nuanced version.
This is actually your headcanon because you want to justify shitty writing and a woc getting written off again. But I'm sure I'll get dogpiled and told I have no media literacy and I've never watched tv before after 30+ years of watching tv.
not to sound like a pretentious freak (which i am) but is the prestige tv show in the room? i’m not saying the pitt s1 was the epitome of tv. but it had something. it moved me. s2 has lost that. writing AND acting is off. their hearts just not in it. it’s flat and fake and empty
@cinemattie I mean some of us are grown-ups who know how tv works, but ALSO dislike how Mohan has been written this season and clearly shown the door? Is that allowed?
The Pitt fandom very much feels like "baby's first TV show fandom" because people are acting like characters whose arcs are clearly leading them to leave the hospital are being unfairly chopped when this is just storytelling 101.
