'I Love Boosters' Is A Messy, Maximalist Masterpiece
This farcical feast for the senses might be Boots Riley’s best work.
Hi, I'm Lyvie.
I'm an entertainment writer with an unquenchable love for 'genre genres' like action, science fiction and fantasy. I'm happiest when consuming media that centers women of color, critiquing the ongoing state of the entertainment industry, or discussing my current roster of celebrity crushes.
You can find me at Inverse, /Film, TV Guide and more - but I'm available for film reviews, reported features, and interviews.
