    Mulholland Drive (2001)

    The Chronicle staff is absurdly packed with film buffs – then there’s me. My favorite movies are Friday the 13th, Midnight in Paris, The Secret Life of Pets, and Mulholland Drive. It makes no sense. But please allow this non-expert to convince you Mulholland Drive is one of the best movies ever made – right up there with Secret Life of Pets! This film is not for your conscious mind. It’s like dipping into our collective dreamscape. You could say it sticks with you, but more accurately it existed within you before you watched it: reached into you, and pulled out memories you didn’t know you had. Plus, it’s got one of the best lesbian makeouts of all film history, and that’s something I actually am an expert on because I grew up queer with access to YouTube. – Maggie Quinlan

    “Transcendence: A Century of Black Queer Ecstasy, 1924-2024”

    Across politics and pop culture, depictions of queer Black life most often emphasize pain, if not patronization. “Transcendence: A Century of Black Queer Ecstasy,” a multimedia exhibition presented by UT-Austin’s Art Galleries at Black Studies, flips the script, offering a century’s worth of works that focus instead on Black joy. Organized around seven themes – Portraiture, Beyond Figuration, Dance and Movement, Spirituality, Sex and Sensuality, Black Queer Futures, and Altered States – the works of over four dozen artists remind us that even in the face of adversity, we can achieve transcendence. – Carys Anderson

    The Wayward Vampire

    Adventurers in parties big and small (six people being the comfortable limit) are invited to join in this newest quest at LARP legend the Tiny Minotaur. At $45 per person, the quest runs about 90 minutes with complimentary snacks and a bevvie included for all the 21-and-above aged participants. From the Minotaur themselves: “It appears the Holy Circlet has sent an ill-experienced Cleric to the Rift to investigate and they are seeking the help of some Adventurers at the Tiny Minotaur! Will you and your party be able to help your new Cleric companion return to the Holy Circlet as a Hero or will you all perish on a mission ill-fated from the start?!” – James Scott
