The May issue of Clarkesworld opens with a charming story, which also offers up some touching emotional moments. “Fishy” by Alice Towey sees a daughter tasked with going through her father’s office after his death, trying to track down a prototype he was working on that would provide clean water to millions. His shifty business partner is after the prototype as well, but it turns out her father used the AI fishing bot she gave him to encourage him to get out of the house to dictate notes that may provide the key to her search. “In Which Caruth is Correct” by Carolyn Zhao is a poignant exploration of trauma, set in a world where timeloops are used as a form of therapy. The idea is not to change the past, but to provide closure, though not everyone can stop themselves from trying to “fix” things or from getting lost in the past. Zhao makes effective use of second person, and the way time travel is used to explore loss, grief, and complicated family relationships is very nicely done.

Since the silent film era, Westerns have been a timeless film genre pioneered by some of the greatest filmmakers of all time, such as John Ford, Howard Hawks, and Raoul Walsh.

The kaiju sub-genre is one of the best within the broad realm of science fiction, with such films being defined by the fact that they contain giant monsters, whether they be brought to life using suits, stop-motion animation, or more modern technology.

Since the dawn of the R rating in the 1980s, it’s been a more limited stamp on a film’s box office prospects. There’s a much lower box office ceiling on R-rated movies than there is for those of the PG-13 variety, and thus Hollywood doesn't normally back R-rated ventures with the big budgets that accompany your standard PG-13 franchise-starter. That said, some R-rated films still manage to break out in a big way regardless of budget, striking a chord with audiences that spurs repeat business and strong word of mouth.
