A Filmmaker's Guide: True Crime Cinema
In this chapter of ‘the filmmaker’s guide’ we’re actually going to be learning about literature and film together. I understand that many of you are sitting in university during difficult times and finding it increasingly hard to study and I understand that many of you who are not at university or not planning on it are possibly stuck of what to do, need a break or even need to catch up on learning film before you get to the next level. This guide will be brief but will also contain: new vocabulary, concepts and theories, films to watch and we will be exploring something taboo until now in the ‘filmmaker’s guide’ - academia (abyss opens). Each article will explore a different concept of film, philosophy, literature or bibliography/filmography etc. in order to give you something new to learn each time we see each other. You can use some of the words amongst family and friends to sound clever or you can get back to me (email in bio) and tell me how you’re doing. So, strap in and prepare for the filmmaker’s guide to film studies because it is going to be one wild ride.

Wonder Woman 1984 and Excess
Remember the eighties? The time of big hair, Wall Street tycoons who cannot profit enough, and the beginning of franchise films that could not stop milking the beast, think Friday The 13th, which had its seventh sequel by the end of the decade. It was no longer enough to have a great album with photos and a well-thought press campaign. Now you need a music video, nay, you need several music videos. Plus, you have to be good looking to help sell these new music videos. It is the time of cocaine, a drug that feeds your ego and narcissism. In return, this substance drives you to want more, more material goods, more ego, more cocaine, thus, putting you in a perpetual loop.

Movie Review: 'Shadow in the Cloud' Kicks off 2021 with a Blast
The first movie release of 2021 is a super fun little creature feature with a whole lot of girl power energy. Shadow in the Cloud, arriving in theaters on January 1st, does the honor of starting off 2021 with a surprise, a really fun, very silly, World War 2 creature movie that is smartly brief at a mere 82 minute runtime, and wildly fun in a low budget fashion. Starring Chloe Grace Moretz, Shadow in the Cloud doesn’t overstay its welcome and delivers a brisk number of twists and thrills.

Movie Review: 'Ma Rainey's Black Bottom' is a Netflix Oscar Contender
Chadwick Boseman used every minute of his 44 years on Earth. He packed a lifetime of powerhouse performances into a life cut far too short. His final performance arrived on Netflix in November of 2020 and it was yet another example of his passionate, emphatic, undeniable talent. Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom is a story of a blues legend and a blues wannabe and how each ended up where they were.

Movie Review: 'First Cow' is Beautiful and Brilliant
A24 is the best film distribution company in the world. I say that in all seriousness because A24 has repeatedly proven over the years that they choose only the best material for their distribution banner. A24 has released my favorite movie the year three times in the last decade. Since 2014, 21 A24 movies have made my 10 Movies of the year. No other company has had this level of consistent quality in history.

With all the comic book fans and readers, I ask - this is what bothers you?

Better Watch Out - A Movie Review
Did you hear that noise? I think I heard something upstairs. Better Watch Out snuck into theaters in 2016. Believing that it will be a regular night babysitting, there is someone else in the house. Ashley protects Luke, a twelve-year-old boy, only to realize that this is a home invasion unlike no other.
