The Devil Wears Prada 2 Review

on
      After twenty years the devil in Prada is back on our screens. The Devil Wears Prada 2 may not be exactly what fans were expecting. Yes, it's gloriously fashionable, ruthless and packed with iconic performances and quotable lines, but it's also an honest depiction of the current hardships facing the fashion, writing and arts  industries. It's a scary watch. If you were looking for just a ruthless and iconic sequel, this won't be for you, but if you are willing to embrace what the film is telling us, you'll not only enjoy the elements that make the first film iconic, but you will come out of the cinema with a fresh perspective. Simply put, The Devil Wears Prada 2 is the wake up call we all needed. Read on for my full review!

14 Films to Watch this Valentines Day

on
Are you looking for a film to watch this Valentines? Maybe you have a special someone to watch with, or you’re planning a galantines movie night, or you are just looking for a cute romantic film to enjoy this month. The below list will hopefully put a stop to the endless streaming scrolling for a film to watch.  

In my research for this post, when I was trying to list the perfect 14 films to make your knees go weak and your heart flutter, I noticed one key thing: most romantic films are sad. Most of them have huge emotional storylines, dealing with loss and trauma. Whilst these films are fantastic, they do not scream 'perfect valentines movie’ to me. I want yearning, I want dramatic in the rain confessions of love and endless cute moments. So, I have picked films that probably won't make you cry, because this valentines let's focus on love and happiness, not tears and ice cream. Scroll down for the 14 films you should watch this Valentine’s day!
 

As you can see this list is a mix of teen rom-coms that will make us laugh while the leads fall in love. There are period films were yearning is key to the story. There are the 90s classics and the teen films. All of these films are iconic in their own way, whether it be the grand gestures or the quiet moments of realisation. 
 
What are your go to valentines films? Do like the ones that make you smile or do you prefer the ones that will have you crying? 
 

Have a great valentine weekend! Xx
