The 10 Indie Movies You Just Have To Watch
thedissolve.com

Everyone loves a good night to themselves that involves a freshly made bed, some snacks and Netflix. Especially when you land upon an Indie film that slightly changes your life. For a little help on finding some must sees, here are some that you should have watched by, well, yesterday.

"Short Term 12"

A movie about teens who are emotional and mentally sick, mainly due to the fact they have no proper home to live in. This movie is about the place they stay in temporarily. Also, if you loved Brie Larson in the movie Room, you'll love her even more in this one.

"Keith"

If you wanna cry your eyes out, this is a good one about new love and friendship. Also, did I say Jesse McCartney?

"Adult World"

Another great movie Emma Roberts did without telling too many people. It's an amazing real tale about post grad life that takes place in Syracuse, NY - somewhere many of us know. Also, Evan Peters is in it!

"White Bird in a Blizzard"

A seriously haunting and delicious mystery about a girl finding out what happened to her mother after she disappeared one day.

"The Road Within"

This movie is about three mentally sick teenagers escaping their rehab center and the journey they have while also discovering themselves.

"Stuck in Love"

I mean, if you haven't watched this movie yet I'm concerned. Just go watch it right now.

"StoneHearst Asylum"

This movie is less on the scary asylum side and more on unexpected twist within an unexpected twist within another unexpected twist side.

"A Girl Like Her"

This movie is about a girl that is bullied into committing suicide. It's a beautifully done movie about a real issue in a fake documentary style.

These next two movies are no longer on Netflix streaming but something to get your hands on.

"Palo Alto"

The book is just as enticing as this movie. James Franco shows his true talents in this movie. Also, another movie Emma Roberts is in.

"The Virgin Suicides"

A story about five beautiful sisters that their male neighbors obsess over, even after their doomed fates. It's a tale about teenagers with lust, fantasy, love and death. Truly one of the best indie films out there.

Now that you have your list, start checking them off.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
