Ironically, upwards of 65% of the population face challenges to clothe their bodies.Why does the fashion industry ignore such a huge target market? It confounds her, but it is not the primary influence on fashion.She exclaims “style” is the distinguishing characteristic. It is not about size. It is about Style”. Style is the difference between ‘fine' and fabulous. Why the fashion industry ignores the majority in favor of a tiny minority makes no sense, but Style makes all the difference!“Style” is THE distinction” it is not about size it is about style,” she says.“Style” is the difference between just putting on clothes and ‘dressing,' the dash of spice or color, the well-chosen accessory or textural combination that makes the difference between fine and fabulous.” Clothing that fits, flatters, and enhances can be a most significant contribution to one's self-esteem and confidence.Helping others develop their own personal style is a path she began at an early age and has pursued her entire career. She is the author of "Fashion's Stepsister, A Journey to Style: A Memoir." https://gaylabentley.com/http://www.yourlotandparcel.org

The Ugly Stepsister | So schön kann Kino sein Schönheitschirurg statt Märchenprinz: Für Elvira wird der Weg zur Prinzessin in "The Ugly Stepsister" zur blutigen Tortur. Denn obwohl ihre Mutter einst einen reichen Mann geheiratet hat, war das Glück nur von kurzer Dauer – und jetzt muss dringend neues Geld her. Der vielversprechendste Ausweg: Elvira soll zur perfekten Prinzessin transformiert werden. Doch anstelle höfischer Etikette und romantischer Ballnächte stehen Make-up, Benimmtraining, hübsche Kleider – und vor allem: rigorose Schönheitsoperationen auf dem Programm. Was wie ein modernes Aschenputtel-Märchen anmutet, entpuppt sich rasch als rabenschwarze Farce über Körperkult, kapitalistische Aufstiegsfantasien und das gnadenlose Geschäft mit fremdbestimmter Selbstoptimierung. Das Spielfilmdebüt von Regisseurin und Drehbuchautorin Emilie Blichfeldt feierte bereits im Frühjahr beim Sundance Film Festival Premiere und wurde dort mit Begeisterung aufgenommen – begleitet allerdings von einer deutlichen Warnung: "The Ugly Stepsister" ist nichts für schwache Nerven. Oder Mägen. Melanie, Elias und Stu sprechen über die grelle Satire, ihre schonungslos blutigen Bilder, ihren beißenden Humor – und darüber, warum ihr euch diesen Film ab dem 5. Juni auf keinen Fall entgehen lassen solltet. Falls euer Magen das aushält. Falls nicht: Versucht's mal mit einem Bandwurm – der wirkt bekanntlich Wunder.

Think you've seen every possible version of the Cinderella story? Think again. In this episode of the Uncertified podcast series, Matt Donato and Matthew Monagle discuss Emilie Blichfeldt's The Ugly Stepsister, a mashup of regency tropes and body horror that has earned comparisons to The Substance. But whereas Coralie Fargeat's film leans into the grotesque, you may just find that The Ugly Stepsister is a surprisingly gentle take on unachievable body standards.

Check out Cam's latest novel / audio drama here! Don't believe the marketing, this body horror remix of Cinderella has a lot more in common with our favorite Jane Austen adaptations than it does with The Substance. Our discussion of The Ugly Stepsister centers around the tragic, almost universal sympathy that the film imbues within the central cast. How does this character focus affect the film's body horror? How is empathy twisted and weaponized throughout the story? How accurate is all of this surreal brutality to the reality of the female experience?

The ugly stepsister was one of our most anticipated films of the year and it did not disapoint.

The good weather is here but so is pollen, and mosquitos. So you're better off staying indoors and watching something and boy do we have a lot of options for you. First we've got the long awaited sequel "The Accountant 2" in which Ben Affleck returns as Christian Wolff, who applies his brilliant mind and illegal methods to reconstruct the unsolved puzzle of a Treasury chief's murder. We've also got "Queen of the Ring" inspired by the true story of Mldlred Burke, a small town single mother embraces the danger as she dominates America's most masculine sport and becomes the first million dollar female athlete in history. And for those who like quirky movies there's "The Legend of Ochi" in which a shy girl is raised to fear an elusive animal species known as ochi. But when she discovers a wounded baby ochi has been left behind, she escapes on a quest to bring him home. And for you gentle humor fans there's "The Ballad of Wallis Island." It's about an eccentric lottery winner who lives alone on a remote island tries to make his fantasies come true by getting his favorite musicians to perform at his home. But if you like Jason Staham action movies there's "A Working Man" which shows off his very special skills as he hunts for a missing girl. And ther's the truly weird "The Ugly Stepsister" which follows Elvira as she battles against her gorgeous stepsister in a realm where beauty reigns supreme. We'v also got a literally "uplifting"  documentary on the Palace Theatre in NYC. Plus "The Diamond Heist" which tells how in 2000, a group of London criminals plan an audacious heist: ram-raid the Millennium Dome, steal a diamond and escape by boat on the Thames, but the police are surveilling them. Interested in streaming series?"''Etoile" which which examines life as a dancer. And there's "Dying for Sex" which is the story of a woman diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer, who abandons her husband of 15 years and begins to fully explore her sexuality. Or how about "Your Friends & Neighbors whch stars Joohn Hamm as a hedge fund manager who resorts to burglary after losing his job. And we check out the news seasons of "Hack," "The Last of Us" and "Black Mirror." Put the sunscreen away and give us a listen.

Megan is flying solo this week, as Dave and Evan couldn't make it (I miss you two!). First, Megan reviews THE UGLY STEPSISTER (1:54), Emilie Blichfeldt's Norwegian fairy-tale horror film starring Lea Myren and Thea Sofie Loch Næss, which played at this year's Boston Underground Film Festival. With lush costumes and production design, it's a compelling and gruesome Cinderella retelling that critiques beauty standards.   Then, Megan talks about THE WEDDING BANQUET (19:25), Andrew Ahn's queer rom-com (a remake of Ang Lee's 1993 film) starring Kelly Marie Tran, Lily Gladstone, Bowen Yang, and Han Gi-chan, about a gay man who offers to marry his lesbian friend to pay for her partner's IVF treatments and so he can get a green card. It's a sweet and tender film with an excellent cast.   Lastly, Megan discusses SINNERS (33:41), Ryan Coogler's vampire horror film, starring Michael B. Jordan, Miles Caton, Hailee Steinfeld, and Wunmi Mosaku. Set in the 1930s, it follows two twin brothers opening a juke joint and the evil that follows them. With gorgeous cinematography and a hypnotic score, it's a visceral, moody, and captivating film.   And on this week's Patreon bonus episode, Megan talks about two newly streaming 2024 genre movies, one set in the 1980s and one in the 1990s: Kyle Mooney's sci-fi horror comedy Y2K and Joe DeBoer and Kyle McConaghy's horror film DEAD MAIL!

"The Ugly Stepsister" had its world premiere at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival in the midnight section, where it received positive reviews for its style, performances, and body horror retelling of the fairy tale Cinderella from the point of view of Elvira (the ugly stepsister) who competes against her beautiful stepsister in a bloody battle for beauty. Debut filmmaker Emilie Blichfeldt and stars Lea Myren and Thea Sofie Loch Næss were all kind enough to speak with us about their work on the film, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which will open in theaters on April 18th from IFC Films. Thank you, and enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...
