look at Héloïse transforms into something deeper and more profound than mere surface beauty. A slow-burn romance marked by quiet intensity, “Portrait of a Lady on Fire” is a stunning exploration of desire, autonomy, and forbidden love that leaves a lasting impact.

For fans of horror and suspense, “Agnes” is a must-see addition to Max’s library this month. Written and directed by Mickey Reece, the film centers on a young nun named Agnes (Hayley McFarland) who becomes possessed by a demon in a secluded convent, and it’s up to a priest (part of whom is played by frequent Reece collaborator Jake Horowitz) to perform an exorcism that may not go quite as smoothly as one would hope. Released to critical acclaim in 2021, “Agnes” is a chilling, atmospheric horror film that doesn’t rely on jump scares or gore, but rather on slow-building tension and the psychological unraveling of its characters.

Finally, “Babygirl” is a delightful coming-of-age dramedy that is sure to warm your heart. Directed by writer-director Mac Alsfeld and starring Olivia Crocicchia, Rosie Day and Dmitry Prokofyev, “Babygirl” follows the misadventures of a sheltered 20-year-old named Inés (Crocicchia) who balances a complicated relationship with her overprotective mother (Day) and a budding romance with a charming street artist named Adrian (Prokofyev). As Inés navigates the pitfalls of young adulthood in New York City, she finds herself caught between the safety of her childhood and the freedom of self-discovery, leading to a touching and relatable story about growing up and finding your own path.
