Obviously, “Homecoming” has multiple meanings, not least of which is Spider-Man’s switch to the cool side of the Marvel fence, outside of Sony’s control. Makes sense. One could argue that the very DNA of the modern Marvel movie machine is based on what made Sam Raimi’s first two movies so successful: larger-than-life characters tackling real-world themes, with a lightness of touch that didn’t undermine the gravity of the drama. It’s a difficult balancing act; one which Marc Webb’s aborted reboot largely failed to replicate.

Young love can be an intense experience, but even more so if you're on the run from an abusive cop father with a bag full of drug money.

Jonas works with his father on the farm, while Casey is new to town, as her cop father has just been relocated. We get a glimpse into the abusive nature of Casey's father, played by Bill Paxton, but the situation becomes extreme and leads Jonas and Casey on the run.

Little did Richard Linklater know that over two decades ago, his small-scale romance “Before Sunrise” would not only spark a trilogy, but an entire subgenre of films. The format of two characters coming together for an emotionally connected ramble over a condensed period of time has spawned numerous imitations and inspirations, and this year alone we’ve seen the Barack Obama date movie “Southside With You” and indie “Tramps” loosely follow the template.

Young love is never, and will never, be easily navigated, which is a reality that writer/director John Carchietta bottles for a bubbly, provocative drink dubbed Teenage Cocktail.
There’s a beauty in the way that Carchietta (and co-writers Sage Bannick/Chris Sivertson/Amelia Yokel) balance pretty-in-pink teenage crushing with warm, comforting relationship notes, with the added bonus of being a twisted obsession thriller. Because that’s what teenage wilds are all about, right? Hormones, brash decisions, devoted love, thoughts of independence, and the truly dangerous cocktail those emotional factors form – something a bartender might call “Your Chaotic Childhood.” Carchietta understands this insanity, and leads viewers on a sensual journey with a wicked sense of danger.

Young love can be so bittersweet. Considering the the name-brand recognition, the posh Calabasas mansion she recently bought and the garage full of luxury cars, it's easy to forget sometimes that Kylie Jenner is only 18. And Tyga, at 26... That's like 14 in boy years! So it comes as zero surprise that Kylie and Tyga just spent the last week acting out the lyrics to Katy Perry's "Hot n Cold." One day they're devotedly together, the next they're so over—and back again. They started the weekend on the outs and, barely 48 hours later, they were by all indicators totally back on. Their brief spat was made all the more dramatic because it coincided with Tyga's...

Tab Hunter was a teen idol in the mid 20th century: he starred in dozens of films, appeared on countless magazine covers and recorded the #1 pop song "Young Love" in 1957. Yet the entire time he was in the public eye, Hunter closely guarded his private identity as a gay man, even while engaging in fairly public relationships with "close friends" like Anthony Perkins (the tabloid Confidential threatened to expose his involvement in a "limp wristed pajama party" at the time). "Tab Hunter Confidential" is so enjoyable principally through many interviews with Hunter himself, who makes clear that he wasn't a stereotypical tortured, self-loathing homosexual. He was an amazingly well adjusted, clean-cut kid who followed his gut and loved who he wanted to love His behavior was quietly groundbreaking. At the start of this documentary, which is based in part on a book of the same name that Hunter wrote with Eddie Muller,...

In a separate photo, the sweet couple was seen laughing closely and holding each other by their vehicle.

Young love! Bindi Irwin is getting some much-needed "Dancing With the Stars" support from her boyfriend, Chandler Powell. The 17-year-old daughter of the late Steve Irwin took to Instagram to share a sweet snapshot with her beau, where the two are seen snuggling on a lounge chair. "He's here," she wrote with a heart emoji. "Thank you for always making me laugh, helping me to ice my foot when it hurts, making me tea and hugging me when I'm tired. You're amazing." The cute couple met back in November 2013. The young conservationist's 18-year-old beau is a wakeboarder from Florida, and a global ambassador for Irwin's Wildlife Warriors team. "I was blessed to meet Chandler and his family back in November 2013," the "DWTS" favorite recently told The Telegraph. "We remained in touch and stayed friends. Since then, our friendship has developed into something really special." "He is passionate about wildlife and an extraordinary wakeboarder,...

“Oddballs And Young Love”
By Raymond Benson
Wes Anderson’s marvelous 2012 comedy, Moonrise Kingdom, was previously released on Blu-ray and DVD, but The Criterion Collection has seen fit to issue an edition that blows the old one away. With an abundance of fun, entertaining supplements and packaged ephemera—Criterion’s disc is in keeping with the other fine releases the company has done for the filmmaker.
Moonrise Kingdom is the first Wes Anderson movie I truly fell in love with. While I liked and appreciated his earlier pictures, Moonrise is a flawless masterpiece of style and wit—as is Anderson’s following film, The Grand Budapest Hotel. For my money, these are two slam-bang pieces of comic brilliance.
The setting is a small fictional New England island, during one summer in the Sixties. A Boy Scout troop camps out there. Some families live on the island, others visit for the season.

Gigi Hadid was not super interested in Travis Scott's performance -- or her boyfriend, Joe Jonas -- 'cause she was completely fixated on her phone during Rihanna's New York Fashion Week party. Eventually Gigi did pay him a little attention, not that he heard much of whatever she was whispering. We'll just say ... Joe appeared to be a little "under the weather." Young love.

Young love can be so damn difficult. This is the fertile soil tilled in Hannah Fidell's 6 Years, the follow-up to her critically acclaimed debut feature A Teacher. As in that film, Fidell employs a distinctly naturalistic filmmaking style to explore tense emotional territory. Also like her first film, 6 Years succeeds wildly in bringing the audience inside the relationship and taking us on bumpy, emotion-filled journey. 6 Years introduces us to Mel (Taissa Farmiga) and Dan (Ben Rosenfield), a young couple on the verge of finishing college while enjoying the titular sixth year of their relationship. Things have been mostly swell for the two, though occasional nights of too much drinking have been known to cause a bit of strain. The accumulation of that...

Young love doesn't always last forever, but it doesn't necessarily have to end on awful terms either. The latter situation seems to describe Cody Simpson and Gigi Hadid's breakup--the former couple insisted their split this past May was an amicable one, and this truly does seem to be the case. The Aussie singer and Ralph Lauren model, 18, recently told Yahoo! Style, in fact, that while he and his model ex, 20, are no longer texting BFFs, they still "talk every now and then…" "...but people grow in different ways and separate, you know?" he went on. "We'll never have any animosity between us, as it should be, and I want to be supportive of her. We're just on different paths...

In 2010, Ariel Kleiman came across an article in the New York Times about child assassin trades in Colombia.
The piece affected him greatly and he continued to think about it for months; until he realised his gut reaction was to take the bones of this story and make it into a feature film.
Immediately, the writer/director set about penning the script with partner Sarah Cyngler.
Two years later, he had Partisan.
Partisan follows the plight of 11-year-old Alexander (Jeremy Chabriel) a trained child assassin raised in a cultish retreat consisting of mothers, their children and Gregori (Vincent Cassell); their patriarch.
The film is set in a place Kleiman often refers to as Nowhere Land (actually shot in Melbourne and Georgia). While the initial inspiration for the project may have come from events in Colombia; a Colombian film this is not.

The Supergirl upfront has garnered strong reactions online, not all of it positive. Here's a response to its critics...
It's fair to say the Supergirl trailer (actually an "upfront" – a précis of the entire pilot designed to sell the show internally and to advertisers) has attracted a lot of praise. It's also attracted a lot of criticism. But how valid are those criticisms? I'll say now that none of us has any idea whether this show will actually be good or not – I think it will, based on what I've seen – but I don't know. What I do know is that some of the things people are saying about it don't seem fair.
Criticism of the trailer's rom-com influences, perceived cheesiness, comparisons to a certain Saturday Night Live sketch, and complaints that its version of Kara Zor-El isn't (we'll come back to this) a "strong female character" are all problematic,...

Hollywood can destroy people. For every survivor of the Hollywood system, whether from years ago or any current actors, there are dozens of actors and other artists who crashed and burned, had serious substance abuse issues, committed suicide or never made it at all.
Just from memory I can name Barbara Payton, Jayne Mansfield, Jeanne Eagles, Marilyn Monroe, James Dean, Diana Sands and Montgomery Clift. For a complete rundown you can’t do much better than Kenneth Anger’s incredible book Hollywood Babylon and it’s even more depressing sequel Hollywood Babylon Part Two. Vincent Price called Hollywood “the most evil place on Earth!” And Vincent Price would know something about evil!
