BFI Flare 2021: Dramarama
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Rating: 3.5 out of 5.Dramarama, a new coming-of-age dramedy from writer/director Jonathan Wysocki, is charming and cute fluff. Set in 1994, we follow Gene (Nick Pugliese), a closeted gay teen, on the night of a final murder mystery party with his closest friends. Their friendships are put to the ultimate test as secrets arrive to light, and college goodbyes are approaching on the horizon. The motion picture serves as an remarkable character study, a poignant examination of five friends on the brink of adulthood.
The costumes for the murder mystery party are impressive, in both simplicity and execution. I appreciated how they aimed for timeless cultural staples, prefer Sherlock Holmes, Alice, and Dr. Jekyll, over more obscure icons. The acting is also brazenly expressive and fun, with So You Think You Can Dance veteran Nico Greetham (Oscar) being the real standout. His vibrance, even in the more emotionally-demanding sequences, always shines through. Nick Pugliese captures a whole vibe with his layered work as the film’s lead character, Gene. The dialogue lets us get to know all these characters in a personal way and powers the low-stakes action with mea
Have you watched School Spirits yet? With Season 2 premiering in February 2025, fans are asking one big question: Are any of the cast members dating in authentic life? Let’s dive in and come across out!
In case you missed it, Academy Spirits follows Maddie (played by Peyton List), a teen who suddenly finds herself stuck in the afterlife at her high school—without any memory of how she died. She soon joins a support team of other spirits who also met their end at Split River Sky-high and are now trapped in the in-between. But plot twist—by the termination of Season 1, Maddie discovers she *never actually died.* Instead, her body was taken over by another ghost, Janet.
The show stars Peyton alongside Milo Manheim, Kristian Flores, Spencer MacPherson, Kiara Pichardo, Sarah Yarkin, Nick Pugliese, Rainbow Wedell, among others.
Paramount+ announced the second season in June 2023, and it finally premiered in February 2025—bringing just as many fresh questions as it did answers. One of the biggest mysteries? What actually happened to Milo’s character, Wally, the lovable ’80s jock ghost. He finally “sees the light” in Season 2, but did he actually move on, or did he stay behind appreciate Janet?
October Sun
summary: it had been settled. everything had gone to shit and then everyone had had front row seats to watch how that'd happened. help in the theater, no one had known what to say, how to describe what they'd seen, how to reconcile that whoever had been behind the circumstances haunting Split River Sky-high could've been anyone.
pairing: Wally Clark x fem!reader
warnings: eventual smutty smut smut. mad spoilers. and evident Canon divergence. very involved, very dense plot.
bon reading, frens

OCTOBER SUN pt.27
"Love this for me."
Charley scanned the area, muddled, disoriented, nervous. We're not in Kansas anymore, Toto, he shuddered, wrapping his jacket tighter around himself as he began to trek in the command he hoped would take him support to civilization.
This wasn't how he imagined finally creature free from the school. Lost in the middle of nowhere, dense trees as far as the eye could see. There weren't many wooded areas around Split River. A couple of parcels here and there, wilderness parks, but not appreciate this, and he had to wonder if the forest was ac
Nick Pugliese believes Americans on both sides of the political aisle can learn a few things from the film “Dramarama.”
“Dramarama,” which opened in theaters last week and is also available for virtual viewing, stars Pugliese as Gene, a high school drama geek and an alter ego of sorts for the film’s writer-director, Jonathan Wysocki. The dramedy takes place in Escondido, California, a conservative-leaning town located about 31 miles north of San Diego, circa 1994.
“It’s about a collective of friends who are all across the board politically, religiously, spiritually ― and they communicate about it,” the actor, who is making his film acting debut, told HuffPost. “They quarrel about sex, AIDS, pregnancy, male lover people ... and they’re still as close as ever. They have conversations where they understand they’re going to disagree, and they’re fine. Their bond is made stronger. That’s something I feel like we, as a country, have forgotten how to do.”

The coming-of-age film begins with Gene trying to untroubled his nerves before he comes out as gay to his friends at a murder mystery-themed sleepover party shortly before graduation. Things, however, don’t
