The movie-going audience is buzzing about “Us,” the new movie from sketch comedian-turned-horror auteur Jordan Peele. Peele dominated the cultural conversation in 2017 with his hit directorial debut and racial parable “Get Out,” so anticipation for “Us” has been high ever since the trailer was uploaded to YouTube in December.

The movie stars Lupita Nyong’o as Adelaide Wilson, a woman who returns to her childhood home with her family, with “Black Panther” standout actor Winston Duke playing her husband and formidable child actors Evan Alex and Shahadi Wright Joseph playing the couple’s two children. The family is accosted by four strangers who break into their house, and the intruders are revealed to be red jumpsuit-wearing doppelgangers of the Wilson family.

On this week’s episode, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss “Us,” the film’s significance, comparisons to “Get Out” and how they’re both in love with Duke.

On this week's episode, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester still aren't ready to admit it's not spring break anymore, but it's a little easier to admit with two twisted tales of vacations gone wrong: 2015's "A Bigger Splash" and 2012's "Spring Breakers."

"A Bigger Splash" is the second film in director Luca Guadagnino's self-described Desire trilogy, which ended in 2017 with the hit romance "Call Me by Your Name." It tells the story of famous rock singer Marianne Lane, played by Tilda Swinton, vacationing on a small Italian island with her lover Paul. The vacation promptly gets interrupted by the appearance of Harry — Marianne's ex and Paul's former mentor — and his daughter Penelope.

"Spring Breakers" is a crime-filled, neon-colored spectacle of bikinis, cocaine and Britney Spears covers with James Franco on the piano. It's a lot. Distributed by indie film darling company A24, the movie received attention for its leading actresses being former Disney starlets Selena Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens as the titular girls gone wild.

IU baseball is on its longest winning streak of the season after defeating Indiana State University on Tuesday. With five consecutive wins under their belt, the Hoosiers will return to Bart Kaufman Field this weekend to open up Big Ten play.

For every movie that fits into the film noir genre, there seems to be three commenting upon the genre and its tenets. The world of mysterious dames, hard-nosed detectives and unraveling layers of intrigue started in American cinema in the 1920s and lasted until the late 1950s, but the echoes of the style carry decades past that time frame.

On this week’s episode of Double Feature, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss the 1958 film noir classic “Vertigo” and the 2001 neo-noir surrealist film “Mulholland Drive.”

“Vertigo,” directed by the legendary so-called master of suspense Alfred Hitchcock, follows the story of a former detective suffering from vertigo who is hired to follow the wife of an acquaintance. In 2012, it replaced “Citizen Kane” as the greatest film ever made in the British Film Institute’s Sight & Sound critics’ poll.

The David Lynch-written and -directed “Mulholland Drive” is notable for its non-traditional narrative structure that left audiences and critics speculating on what the movie is actually about and what happens in it. The film seemingly follows an aspiring actress in Los Angeles named Betty who meets an amnesiac woman who was recently in a car accident. The Village Voice called the film a “poisonous valentine to Hollywood” in its review.

Coming off a three-game sweep at the University of Tennessee, IU baseball needed to come back strong. It wasn't easy, but IU went 4-1 last week, including a win against then-No. 21 University of Connecticut and a near win against then-No. 11 Coastal Carolina University.

Up next will be another tough weekend for the Hoosiers.

Indiana Daily Student baseball beat reporters Stefan Krajisnik and Jared Rigdon look back at the past week for the team while looking ahead to the Safeco Field Tournament.

There's been a dramatic change in fortunes and postseason hopes for the IU men's basketball team.

The Hoosiers have won their last two games, both at home inside Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall, and both against teams ranked in the top 20 of the Associated Press poll.

As such, IU is right back in the thick of the discussion to be included as an at-large team in the 68-team NCAA Tournament field.

Indiana Daily Student men's basketball reporter Cameron Drummond, women's basketball reporter Stefan Krajisnik as well as Indiana University Student Television men's basketball and IDS baseball reporter Jared Rigdon try to make sense of IU's recent performances and discuss what IU has to do the rest of the season to reach the NCAA Tournament.
