Strike a match and set that autumn mood with this thread of Adam Driver characters as candles from @TheYankeeCandle fall collection that nobody asked for but we think is very necessary:
In What If, Adam plays Daniel Radcliffe’s wacky, unpredictable friend. He’s the scent Haunted Hayride, because you never know what’s going to happen next, and it sort of feels like you’re putting your life at risk by being there.
In This is Where I Leave You, Adam is the family screw-up who is perpetually getting handsy with his older, wealthy fiancé. This guy is Kitchen Spice, because he’s not afraid to get saucy in any room of the house.
Adam’s Hungry Hearts character finds himself in an increasingly-strained relationship with his wife over parenting their newborn. These three are absolutely a Haunted Trio.
Adam’s country singing character is only in one scene of Inside Llewyn Davis, but he’s such a delectable morsel of levity in an otherwise bleak story. He’s Pecan Pie Bites, because his part is small, but such a memorable delight.
Adam’s character in BlacKkKlansman is a fish out of water (to say the least). He’s Red Apple Wreath, because we’re suspicious that’s not where apples belong, but we’re going along with it regardless.
Kylo Ren is obviously New England Maple, because he’s thicc like a tree trunk.
In Paterson, Adam’s poet character is essentially a Yankee Candle come to life. For his classic soft boy demeanor, we give him the most definitive fall candle: Autumn in the Park.
The Report is, ultimately, a movie about the importance of paperwork. For his character’s patriotic pursuit of gathering files: Collecting Leaves.
In Frances Ha, Adam plays a trust fund playboy — but, like, a really kind one. This rich kid is Warm Luxe Cashmere.
Girls’ Adam Sackler is a lost 20-something trying to figure out exactly who he is in this world. For him: Apple Pumpkin. Is it apple? Is it pumpkin? It doesn’t know, and that’s ok! We’re figuring it out together.

We partnered with @SXSW to bring you a limited collection of shorts, features, and docs (oh my!) from all over the world — free to view in the US starting Monday, 4/27 for the next 10 days. Here’s a list of everything you’ll be able to watch.
Le Choc du Futur (feature): In 1978 Paris, Ana struggles to make a mark in the male-dominated music industry. But she's about to discover a sound no one's ever heard before: a lil' thing called Electro Pop.
Director: Marc Collin
My Darling Vivian (documentary): The story of Vivian Liberto, Johnny Cash's first wife and mother of his four daughters. Includes footage and photographs of Johnny and Rosanne, as well as Reese Witherspoon, Joaquin Phoenix, Whoopi Goldberg, and more.
1. A lesson in alt-history as told through the stunning title sequence of @HighCastleTV. We begin on Mount Rushmore, where paratroopers appear as tears on Washington’s cheeks, mourning the destroyed American dream.
2. The sequence then begins to establish the geography of a USA divided — with San Francisco as the hub of the Japanese Pacific States.
3. Projection is utilized throughout like a film reel, which also plays a central role in the story, to juxtapose imagery as well as portray the invading force of the Reich.
1: It’s one of the most famous – and perhaps most controversial – love triangles of all time. In Pretty in Pink, Andie chooses Blane, the handsome rich boy, over her best friend Duckie. Did she make the right choice? Let’s take a closer look at each guy…
2: First up, our main man Blane. He’s peak ‘80s handsomeness. Those baby blue eyes, that shy smile, that semi-mullet? Andie is obviously attracted to him, and we don’t blame her.
3: The two of them have incredible chemistry. From the outset, it’s all longing looks culminating in a series of very hot kisses.
