Movie Review: 'Promising Young Woman' is Bold, Stylish and Challenging
No movie has occupied my mind in the way Promising Young Woman has. I watched the movie in late November with the intention of writing this review two weeks before the December 25th theatrical release date. That didn’t happen, obviously. So I decided to watch it again. Something about the movie nags at my mind. I think the movie is remarkable. Promising Young Woman is stylish, confident, well acted and memorable.

A Filmmaker's Guide to: Kant's Philosophies
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.

Movie Review: 'News of the World' is a Terrific Western Throwback
News of the World holds a particular charm for me. In my life, I have worked as a radio news reporter and the notion of how news traveled back in the pre-20th century south holds an awesome fascination for me. News of the World indicates that there was once a man who rode from town to town charging folks a dime to sit and listen to him read the newspaper and inform them about what is happening in the world outside their backyard.

5 Spirited Side-Splitting Christmas Comedies
Christmas movies are one of the best parts of that special time of year and always provide an entertaining means of getting into the yuletide spirit. While there are plenty of family-friendly classics, horror titles, or motion pictures chock full of emotionally powerful narratives, it certainly isn’t an infraction worthy of naughty list designation to sit back and enjoy a humorous holiday feature.
