My Review of "The Sopranos: Season 5"
The Sopranos: Season 5 is one hell of a season. It's really too bad I started watching this series so late because I think I would have enjoyed it even more had I watched it during the time it was first released. There's so many elements in this show that feel like a time capsule. I know I would have really liked it had I watched it when it was fresh and new.

My Review of "Pig"
Pig was quietly released in 2021 with a little buzz to it. I originally thought this was going to be a John Wick like movie because the movie Nobody came out around the same time. It just seemed to be a growing genre as there were multiple badass revenge movies popping up at the time. When I finally saw this movie I was a little shocked and intrigued at the same time.

Ignored by History: Black Cowboys Finally Get Their Due in The Harder They Fall. Top Story - November 2021.
The film This melanated escapist tale features characters based on actual black cowboys and outlaws from the old west. Although the people were real, the events are entirely the creation of Jeymes Samuel, the writer and director of this indulgent western flick. It’s unlikely that any of these people ever met, but the film’s speculation is no less enthralling.

"The Dark Outside"
I have the upmost respect for awards: awards given to athletes, entertainers and especially in my older years, to writers. When I read about a play written by Bernard Kops and stars Austin Pendleton I figured what could go wrong? The good news is that at the start of the show at The Theater for the New City, the person who normally tells us where the fire exits are kept it under 5 minutes long! The bad news is that the show started about 15 minutes late and I am sure many audience members prayed for a fire 20 minutes into the show! If this is a standard writing of Kops, I do not understand how the Queen of England could give him the Civil List pension; after all, that was also awarded to writers like Lord Byron, Wordsworth and Alfred. After seeing "The Dark Outside I can tell you that Kops is no Lord Byron.
