Triangle of Sadness

Ruben Östlund’s Triangle of Sadness is a hilariously tragic social commentary like I’ve never seen before. In three acts, it centers on a young couple of British models, Carl (Harris Dickinson) and Yaya (Charlbi Dean). The opening scene shows us male models in a documentary setting, being interviewed and asked among many questions, how they […]

My Current Favorite Shows

I haven’t discussed television much at all on this blog. This is mainly because I don’t watch TV that much. I’m not the type of person to binge-watch a show on the weekend anymore. There’s nothing wrong with that; your free time is your free time. I just prefer to watch it in intervals when […]

Finding the Lost Boys

My university was in the small town of Socorro, New Mexico. We had one small theater called the Loma, which usually showed movies a few months after their release. In the autumn of 1987, I went with a group of friends to see the Joel Schumacher film, The Lost Boys, starring Kiefer Sutherland, Jason Patric, […]

“George & Tammy” Was Showtime’s Most-Watched Premiere Ever

Did you catch the premiere of Showtime’s mini-series on George Jones and Tammy Wynette this weekend? Turns out a LOT of us did. Episode one of “George & Tammy” aired Sunday on Showtime, Paramount+, and CMT, and pulled in 3.3 million combined viewers. According to Showtime, that makes it their most-watched premiere ever.  The fact that it aired right after “Yellowstone” probably didn’t hurt. […]

Movie Review: “Ant-Man and The Wasp” get lost in “Quantumania”

Superhero movies have gone all in on “universe building” of late, that “Avatar” model that pushes the notion “If we show them strange, ‘new’ and wondrous places, they will come.” So the latest “Ant-Man” is basically “‘Avatar’ with Ants…and some jokes.” Trapped in the multi-verse mania that has been a hallmark of post-“Avengers” comic book […]

Review- Magic (1978)

After a year of hard slog, he becomes well-known and even attracts the attention of an agent (Burgess Meredith). He’s on the verge of […]

THE TRAGEDY OF MACBETH

Style is half the picture. Story is the other half. William Shakespeare’s 17th-century play, The Tragedie of Macbeth, might be one of the greatest stories ever penned. If not, it’s at least one of the most durable. The desire for power, the ruthlessness of rule, and the all-consuming descent into madness that comes with conspiracy and […]
