Though there are still leftovers to come, our final full writeup for Fantasia International Film Festival 2026 is Caspar Kelly's "Buddy." This film is a simulacrum of excesses that, in hindsight, feel almost barbaric, says Giles Edwards (@gilesforyou.bsky.social) 366weirdmovies.com/fantasia-202...

For leaping about in the thickest bracken, I am suggesting Charles James’s 1954 clover leaf ballgown for today’s Unsuitable Dog Walk Attire. Blending into the forest of ferns, it would collect all manner of unexpected flora and fauna along the way @metmuseum.org #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡
