SubscribeThe Kids Are Alright was a surprise for me. I really thought the film was about two teen aged kids of a lesbian couple finding the sperm donor that made them possible. It was SO MUCH MORE. It was dynamic, tackling family, love, lust, teen aged angst and parenting. I laughed, I cried, I felt...
Well needless to say…last night I was in the mood to sit down on the couch with the husband and watch lame chick flicks and just numb out. But NOOOOO. This guy is always complaining that he never gets to watch mindless dude movies, so what does he decide on??? Read the title of the...
Get ready for the ride of your life. Your emotions will be on the rebel yell for a while…..the duration of the movie to be exact. Funny, dramatic, violent, enlightening, violent, dramatic, funny, enlightening. The story follows the life and times of Jesco White (played here by Edward Hogg), “the dancing outlaw”, from reform school...
This movie spans three locations (worldwide) and intimately captures the global issues that seep into the modern human’s basic condition. From my understanding, we are all either too success obsessed, too self involved, too daft, too blind to see what is before us, around us. A successful New York couple try and balance their professional...
Alright, the holidays are rife with movie material. Families reunite for food, drink, laughs and drama. Here is a list of my top 5 Thanksgiving flicks. The Ice Storm: one word: SWINGERS! Pieces of April: Back when she was just Katie Holmes, sweet flick and Patricia Clarkson rocks it of course! The House...
Yawn, stretch, scratch….you get it. Yup, I was super excited to go and see this movie cause I’m like that. Excitable. Went with no expectations, just that this iconic woman had something to say and I wanted to hear every word. Well….besides some very cool aspects, this flick was a bit of a snoozerama. An...
Co-writer, co-director, co-producer (twin brother Sanjit is the other half of the team) Ranju Majumdar blurbs and plugs their new project Determinism. More information about this dynamic duo can be found here. Broke and cut off from his family after he flunks out of school, Alec sets off to free himself from the stereotypical role...
Go out and see this little gem of a movie but do NOT take your four year old. Ok, so I didn’t do my homework and I let my ADD take over when I read claymation – (er, stop motion animation) – the adventures of Mary and Max. Although my kid had a hard time...
Wow. wow. wow. I missed this movie when it came out so I’m so glad I couldn’t get any winks in last night and finally caught it on the HBO. Control is the story of Ian Curtis, lead singer of Joy Division and his battle with several personal demons and the drama that comes with...
Ohhhh…..1987! What a year it was. Just me and my Toyota Corolla. My New Order, Billy Idol, and yes some good ole Jody Watley. I was rockin the claw and frosted brownie lipstick and lovin every minute out of my awesome Benetton sweater. I love the 80′s. Sometimes. This movie brought me back and I...
