Drive-Away Dolls will always have the distinction of being the first film directed by A Coen Brother and not by THE Coen Brothers. That alone is a big thing in itself, knowing what fans of film know about the famed duo. They make all kinds of films, usually with a nice dose of humor, and […]

The Kitchen sounds like it should be a cooking talk show. Does it not? Come on it doesn’t hurt to start a review off by being silly and don’t tell me you’re not thinking along those lines either. The ironic part about The Kitchen too is how excited I am for it. I say that because […]

Acclaimed writer Aaron Sorkin has enjoyed a successful run as a screenwriter. Molly’s Game, his directorial debut, based on a memoir by Molly Bloom, was an attempt to accomplish more, even if he did have to settle for another writing nomination at the Academy Awards. Regardless, one can see why his interest was piqued with […]

I must have a very simple mind. Alright, I definitely do. When I first saw the trailer for Molly’s Game I just didn’t get it. My fiancee had to explain it to me. Isn’t that sad? Ha ha. I blame it on exhaustion and stress from work. However, after subsequent viewings of it and a […]

I find it fascinating when a filmmaker uses their very deliberate style and applies it to all of their films. Yorgos Lanthimos has found great acclaim in a few of his previous films (The Lobster, Dogtooth), which relies on a sense of detachment on the part of the actors to make the premise work. The […]

Gold was a film that went through a bit of a lengthy journey to finally getting its way to production. Pitched as a more modern Treasure of the Sierra Madre, the film once had director Michael Mann attached to film it. Mann eventually left it to film Blackhat. Finally the film was made and released […]

With Loving there comes a certain expectation that writer/director Jeff Nichols is not out to provide. The historical drama surrounds an event that led to the invalidation of state laws prohibiting interracial marriage. This seems like the typical kind of film to automatically receive awards consideration. Regardless of if it does or doesn’t, Nichols is […]

Vanity Fair called HBO’s limited series, The Night Of, “The best TV you’ll see this summer.” Who am I to argue with that claim? I learned about the show from all the buzz it was experiencing online before the series even premiered. Because of its early release online I made my girlfriend watch it with […]

Of all the films adapted from graphic novels released this year, Tamara Drewe will probably be the one met with the least amount of fanfare. Despite being based on a very popular British comic strip by Posy Simmonds, it is not one about having a flashy genre premise. As fun as those films can be […]

Ah…my good friends over at Sony Pictures Classics really know how to make my day brighter. Just when I did not think it could possibly get any better (I’m being facetious of course), this press release email comes across my desk. Say what you want about the film, but the fact that Gemma Arterton is […]

I’m sorry. I could not help myself. Ever since I saw Clash of the Titans, the only actress I have had on my mind is Gemma Arterton. I probably don’t even have to tell you why, but just in case, check out her photo below. She’s the only reason why I want to see The […]
