Given the disarray of the 2020 movie calendar we definitely weren't expecting Sony Pictures Classics to begin promoting French Exit today. But they posted the photo above along with this cursive promise...

Me and Maggie
In my family, the history of our pets tends to be linked to a sense of loss. Through my early childhood, we had two dogs, a beautiful Cocker Spaniel called Gigi and an English Setter by the name of Minnie. Gigi had been my mother's dog and she, unfortunately, died while I was still very young, but Minnie was born the same year as me and we grew up together. That is until she got sick when I was nine, cancer quickly making the lively companion become lethargic and in constant pain. She was put down before the suffering continued and I was heartbroken. Seeing that, my mom, who had a lifelong distrust for cats due to some unfortunate experiences as a child, put her bad feelings aside and decided to adopt an adorable little kitten I had grown fond of in the weeks before Minnie's passing…

My cats!
Last fall, my husband and I adopted a pair of Siamese kittens from a local rescue organization. It was my husband’s idea – I was hesitant at first, despite the extreme cuteness of their pictures and videos. Not because I don’t like cats; to the contrary, my husband had already converted me into a cat lover with our previous, gone but still-missed pair. No, the real if silly reason, as I explained sheepishly, was that every time I thought of Siamese cats – especially in twos – all I could think of was the devilish duo from Lady and the Tramp (1955). While I hadn’t seen the movie in years, I vividly remembered two blue-eyed hellions who teamed up to torment poor innocent Lady and frame her as the “bad dog” she assuredly was not. I also remembered a sibilant signature song that I was pretty sure had not aged well after a half century, even if the movie itself remained one of my Disney favorites...
Disney, Lady & the Tramp, Peggy Lee, animated films, cats, dogs, musicals, zoology Monday, April 27, 2020 at 6:00PM • /Film Rise of Skywalker will debut on Disney+ on Star Wars Day, May 4th
• The Verge Leslye Headland (Russian Doll) to create a female-centric Star Wars series for Disney+. There's certainly lots of room for creators there since the Star Was universe has been so largely bereft of women.
• Collider boils the entire James Bond franchise down to 7 movies Hmmm.
Laura Benanti's generosity, a Love Victor clip, SNL goodies, and online film festivals after the jump...
