- Our favorite picks for your next movie night.
Finally, some news that makes us want to pack a bag and travel! Italy just held its big 71st David di Donatello Awards at the famous Cinecittà studios in Rome. It was a huge night for a movie called The Last One for the Road.
We just saw that this comedy-drama swept the board. It won in eight different categories! That includes the big ones like Best Film and Best Director. Francesco Sossai is the director behind the magic.
The movie stars Sergio Romano and Pierpaolo. It first made waves at Cannes in 2025. It is a road movie, which we always love. There is something so free about a story on the move.
As art fans, Sucheta and I are in love with the aesthetic of this film. The vibe is very warm and sun-drenched. The colors look like a vintage postcard from the Italian coast. It is pure visual candy.
Speaking of big stars, Robert Downey Jr. recently had some strong words about the future of fame. He thinks calling influencers the new stars is absolute horses—.
If you need something funny to watch while waiting for this Italian hit to stream, we have an idea. Eugene Mirman just put his new special on YouTube. You can check out the whimsy here.
We also can’t stop talking about Grayson Chrisley. He has been working hard at the gym lately. You can see his 31-pound muscle gain here.
Our Take
We love when a feel-good movie wins big. Usually, awards go to very sad stories. This film feels different. It has a beautiful, artistic soul. We need more movies that look this good and make us feel this happy. Go watch it as soon as you can!
