During WWW 23 we will be looking forward with exclusive background material that illuminates the history and the filming of Martin Scorsese’s long-awaited film, “Killers of the Flower Moon” (Sarah Adamson). While looking backward with new perspectives on Penny Marshall’s 2001 film, “Riding in Cars with Boys” (Olivia Collette); and on Alex Garland’s 2018 sci-fi thriller, “Annihilation” (Ally Johnson) and more. 

Beth Accomando writes about the revered actress Michelle Yeoh, who is up for the Best Actress Oscar at this year’s Academy Awards for the highly nominated film “Everything, Everywhere All At Once.”  You will be taken into the world of other revered talent like Lashana Lynch (Niani Scott); Mary J. Blige (Carla Hay); and filmmakers John Sayles (Caroline Madden) and Catherine Breillat (Justine Smith). Identical twin journalists Hannah and Cailin Loesch will present their exclusive interview with the talent behind Rian Johnson’s hit show, “Poker Face,” while Nell Minow will publish her conversation with London-based critic Anna Bogutskaya, on her new book, Unlikeable Female Characters: The Women Pop Culture Wants You to Hate.
