What Charli Has Been Watching Lately

Charli didn’t stop there. She updated her followers with another TikTok showcasing the latest films she’s enjoyed. In her latest video, she reviews:

• Danny Boyle’s 28 Years Later: The much-anticipated sequel to the cult horror 28 Days Later. Charli mentioned she squeezed in watching it between soundcheck and performing at Dua Lipa’s recent show, enthusiastically declaring, “Danny Boyle is back!”
• Sofia Coppola’s The Bling Ring: Charli’s fourth time watching this cult classic. She feels the film grows more culturally relevant with each viewing, likening it to “watching a salacious gossip magazine,” which she believes is exactly the point.
• Robert Bresson’s Au Hasard Balthazar (1966): This one brought Charli to tears, proving its emotional power even decades after its release.
• The 1995 documentary Unzipped: Focusing on fashion designer Isaac Mizrahi’s 1994 fall collection, this film features icons like Kate Moss, Cindy Crawford, and Naomi Campbell. Charli called it “the favorite thing I’ve seen so far this month,” praising how it reveals the artist’s creative process — from inspiration and doubt to ultimate triumph.
• Soulwax’s Part Of The Weekend Never Dies (2008): Charli recommends this if you love watching people party, highlighting the joy of music enjoyment from a pre-selfie era.
