Social Media’s Impact on Teens Is Way Worse Than You Think
Lauren GreenfieldThe kids are really not alright according to Social Studies, a five-part docuseries chronicling a year in the lives of disparate California teenagers and the seismic impact social media has on their day-to-day—and, consequently, on their ideas about themselves, each other, and the world at large.Lauren Greenfield’s non-fiction endeavor (Sept. 27, on FX) shines a spotlight on growing up in the age of smartphones, Snapchat, TikTok, and Instagram. What it reveals is a scary new reality in which everything good and bad about pre-adulthood has been exacerbated by being constantly, addictively online. It may end hopefully, but the road to that relatively upbeat conclusion is paved with all manner of misery that will make parents consider becoming Luddites."Social media is our lifeline, but also a loaded gun,” says Jonathan, a 17-year-old senior at Los Angeles’ Palisades Charter High School, which many of Social Studies’ boys and girls either recently graduated from or currently attend. Director Greenfield convinced her numerous subjects to record their screens in order to provide a window into their daily digital interactions with friends, families, and strangers. Such access is illuminating in and of itself. Just as enlightening, though, are these teens’ candid conversations about the ups and downs of their 21st-century experiences, filled as they are with issues regarding sexism, racism, homophobia, insecurity, anxiety, sexual assault, bullying, body-image pressures, and college mania—just to name a few.Read more at The Daily Beast.

‘Rosemary’s Baby’ Retread ‘Apartment 7A’ Is the Most Pointless Prequel Ever
Photo Illustration by Thomas Levinson/The Daily Beast/Getty/Paramount+Apartment 7A is a prequel to Rosemary’s Baby, and yet also a film that could only be of interest to those who’ve never seen its Oscar-winning predecessor.Knowing the events of Roman Polanski’s 1968 horror classic is enough to murder any potential suspense generated by director Natalie Erika James’ dud, whose story once again concerns a young woman who moves into New York City’s Bramford apartment building and befriends an older couple whose kindness is laced with venom and whose allegiance is to the Dark Lord. What ensues is the exact same thing that happened to Mia Farrow’s wife, except minus the creepy surprise and, thus, any reason to pay attention.It's difficult to imagine what might have possessed James or star Julia Garner to embark on this unimaginative rehash, but they at least add a bit of polish and professionalism to these pointless proceedings, which pirouette around Terry Gionoffrio (Garner), who was depicted in Rosemary’s Baby as a recovering drug addict who commits suicide by leaping out a Bramford window.Read more at The Daily Beast.

Francis Ford Coppola’s ‘Megalopolis’ Is a $120 Million Hot Mess
Photo Illustration by Thomas Levinson/The Daily Beast/Getty/LionsgateGreat artists need not be great their entire careers—a fact borne out by Francis Ford Coppola, whose 1970s run (The Godfather, The Conversation, The Godfather Part II, Apocalypse Now) is arguably the finest ever, and whose subsequent output has been wildly mixed and contains no additional undisputed masterpieces. Megalopolis, which Coppola has endeavored to make for four decades and which he financed himself, is a stab at recapturing his former glory, full of epic visions and grand themes and gestures. Such ambition, alas, begets a daring saga that boasts far more moments that stumble than soar. It’s a mess that can be admired—but a mess, nonetheless.Megalopolis, which hits theaters Sept. 27, dreams of a better tomorrow by looking to yesterday, with Coppola mining the past—Art Deco and German Expressionism, archaic car radios and handwritten letters, and iris shots, canted angles, split screens, and painterly set backgrounds—in an attempt to envision the future. It’s a noble effort, yet one that doesn’t work, as his marriage of the old and the new (including florid animation and CGI effects) is ungainly and often unsightly, his frame awash in glittering golden hues, opulent set design, and outlandish overlapping imagery that turn the proceedings garish and Neil Breen-grade affected.From a purely aesthetic standpoint, Coppola’s first feature since 2011’s Twixt is a sloppy hodgepodge marked by the occasional gorgeous sight (such as two lovers kissing in death-defying fashion on steel beams suspended over a metropolis) and a cornucopia of clunky compositions that strain futilely for splendor.Read more at The Daily Beast.
