I know my parents meant well with how they raised my siblings and me. I know that they just wanted to raise children who grew to be good, kind people. But I cried during Supergirl (2026). Not when her dog was in pain. Well, I did cry during that part, but I mean not just when Krypto was in trouble. This is not a spoiler, it’s in the trailer. What had me in my feelings was a flashback scene where Kara (Supergirl) is sitting with her sick mother. Her mother asks her to promise to be “good” after she’s gone.

Singin’ in the Rain (1952), directed by Gene Kelly and Stanley Donen, is a musical rom-com set during the transition from silent film to “talking pictures”. The film deals with the idea of obsolete talent, as three silent film actors struggle to find work in an industry that has moved on to actors with more appealing voices.
