What to watch this summer

What are you watching this summer?

Summer is a cinematic treasure trove that invites viewers to dive into stories filled with adventure and nostalgia. The haunting thrill of "Jaws," directed by Steven Spielberg, defined the summer blockbuster in 1975, while the heartfelt camaraderie in "The Sandlot" and the iconic day-off escapades of "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" have become quintessential summer viewing. Adding to this landscape, recent films like "No Hard Feelings," with its poignant exploration of adolescence, "Call Me by Your Name," which beautifully encapsulates a summer romance in Italy, and "Booksmart," a sharp, witty take on high school friendships, offer fresh narratives that resonate with modern audiences. Together, these films create a rich tapestry that celebrates the timeless joy and complexity of summer memories.
