Maps to the Stars

Maps to the Stars is a darkly satirical drama that pulls back the curtain on Hollywood's corrupt and self-destructive culture, following interconnected characters consumed by ambition, trauma, and delusion. Director David Cronenberg crafts a haunting portrait of celebrity obsession, family dysfunction, and the ghosts—both literal and metaphorical—that torment those chasing fame. The film features standout performances from Julianne Moore, Mia Wasikowska, and John Cusack in a story that is equal parts black comedy and Greek tragedy.
