Queer Eye Was Never Revolutionary. But It Moved Us All the Same

This season of the show, filmed around Washington, D.C., is short with only five episodes, and follows the usual format: the Fab Five help someone deserving with a complete life makeover. Each episode focuses on getting to know the person, learning about their life and emotions, teaching them a new recipe, giving them a hair and style refresh, and redesigning their space. It’s heartwarming to see these deserving people receive positive changes, and this season includes personal reflections from each of the Fab Five at the end of each episode. While there’s plenty of gratitude and happy moments, the season leaves you with the sense that everyone involved might be ready for a change.

The 10 movies we’re most excited to see at the Sundance Film Festival

Have you seen that Instagram meme about wanting to skip ahead to 1995 instead of facing a new year, usually with an old high school photo? Director Tamra Davis (“Billy Madison,” “Crossroads,” “Half Baked”) is aiming for that same nostalgic feeling with her new documentary, “The Best Summer.” The film features previously unreleased concert footage, behind-the-scenes moments, and interviews from the 1995 Summersault festival in Australia. Davis was married to Mike D from the Beastie Boys at the time, and the festival lineup also included major alternative rock bands like Sonic Youth, Foo Fighters, Pavement, Rancid, Beck, the Amps, and Bikini Kill. Interestingly, the footage was found while Davis was evacuating her home during the Malibu fire last January. — Vanessa Franko
