In Robert Morgan’s feature-length debut, Stopmotion, animator Ella Blake (Aisling Fransciosi) vows to finish the work of her ailing mother, Suzanne (Stella Gonet). She shuts herself away from the world in an old apartment building, in total dedication to the painstaking process of moving sculpted figures a centimeter at a time. But she soon begins a new work altogether at the behest of a spooky little neighbor girl, only for the unsettling art they create and Ella’s perception of reality to bleed together. Pity, though, that they don’t bleed together enough, as the macabre dream logic that many of Stopmotion’s sequences employ is too often undermined by plot rhythms familiar from so many horror films about trauma.
Morgan swiftly demonstrates his animator’s eye, communicating his ideas with the quickness and clarity of a short film. The very first scene tells us everything about Ella and...

Peso Pluma Makes History as First Música Mexicana Star to Ever Perform at 2023 VMAs With ‘Lady Gaga’
¡Bienvenido a los VMAs, Peso Pluma! The musician made history by becoming the first música Mexicana star to perform on the VMA stage as he took the stage to deliver an electrifying performance of “Lady Gaga” Tuesday night.
The performance opened with an orchestra of violins before the sound of the bajo quinto kicked in, and Peso Pluma — rocking a black puffer vest and baggy pants — started singing the lyrics to the Génesis standout, which references the VMA favorite.
“Y arriba México, viejo!” the star yelled to close his performance.

Things look a bit different in "Run the World" season two - starting with one of the main characters. The Starz dramedy returned on May 26 to pick back up where it left off with best friends Whitney (Amber Stevens West), Renee (Bresha Webb), and Sondi (Corbin Reid) following season one's roller-coaster finale. However, there's one face that's noticeably absent in the season two premiere: Andrea Bordeaux's Ella.
As fans may remember, although the Harlem-set series focuses on the girls' friend group as a whole, it all started with Ella at the beginning of season one, as she kicked off the next phase of her struggling writing career at the digital gossip site Hot Tea Digest. Throughout the first season, Ella's resurrected career and hectic love life were major storylines that continued until the very end, where she finally patched things up with her on-again, off-again boyfriend, Anderson (Nick Sagar...

Who doesn't love a good mystery?
Hallmark Movies & Mysteries has been bringing old-fashioned mysteries to viewers for a while, and each new release offers something different.
Aimee Garcia and Paul Campbell star in The Cases of Mystery Lane as Birdie and Alden Case, a married couple who has lost their center, who find each other again when they play amateur detective.
This is Aimee's first Hallmark production, and she couldn't have picked a better movie or worked with a better partner.
It's not Aimee and Paul's first time working together, which could be why their chemistry is so natural on screen. Behind the scenes, they share a mutual admiration for one another and aren't afraid to express it.
Aimee said, "He is my kind of actor. He is so professional and so good with comedy and drama, comfortable with improv because he's also a writer. He was just so...
