I never saw my particularly-fraught relationship with my Colombian immigrant mom represented, until I stumbled on “Never Have I Ever.”
‘Sister & Sister’ takes the longing of adolescence and hangs it over everything, bringing empathy, care, and warmth to its heroines.
Zión Moreno’s Luna La made the recently-canceled version of “Gossip Girl” my favorite – so let’s enjoy the two seasons we got of her!
‘Do Revenge’ is the perfect mix of everything my younger self wanted in a teen movie: impeccable outfits, drama, and a complex Latina lead.
‘Crush’ is a hilarious, heartwarming movie about embracing identity, being fearless, and letting go of fantasies—all in the name of queer love.
