Audrey Hepburn wears the crown as golden age actress of class from her era. In every role, she carries herself with the ethereal grace of a princess. Even in her quintessential black leggings and flats, she remains the icon of fashion, elegance, and simplicity. In Sabrina, she plays the innocent chauffeur’s daughter in love with […]
MY CALL: Despite being a practically witchless witch movie with clunky storytelling, much of Argento’s unique style reserves a place in the halls of classic horror film appreciation. As far as “witch movies” go, I’d consider this the weakest of his Three Mothers trilogy. MOVIES LIKE Suspiria: Well, there’s the original Suspiria (1977) and its […]
John’s Horror Corner: Inferno (1980), another of Argento’s ‘style over substance’ classics about a witch.
Desperate to find the man of her dreams, sweet and plain Ava tries a last ditch effort, speed dating. But the absurd cast of characters she encounters makes her wonder if being single is not so bad after all.
Connor, secretly in love with his best friend Rach, has gotten her an amazing birthday present – something that’s sure to knock her off her feet.
A LITERALLY uplifting short from Closer Productions.
Must watch for anyone expecting a baby, especially those of us who aren’t actually the pregnant one.
A dark comedy about the unintended consequences of chasing after the next big thing…
An irreverent and comedic alt-history of the Lazy Susan (that spinning thing on the table at Chinese restaurants), and how one lazy lazy woman changed the restaurant industry forever. Susan’s family restaurant is in trouble: a competing restaurant, Soup Station, moves in next door and, powered by its ingenious innovation (self-serve soup!) business is slow. How can their traditional Chinese restaurant compete? From this humble beginning, the legend of Susan is born.

The world of art has often made a point of exploring the concept referred to as a “national novel”, which is defined as a work of literature that embodies every aspect of that country, encompassing both its history and present culture, and touching on many issues that are faced by their citizens, condensing them into […]
A year ago, I was pleasantly surprised by The Christmas Chronicles. Here was Kurt Snake Plisskin Russell as an uber cool Santa and they weren’t buying him. I didn’t think he’d make a very good Santa Claus and was wrong. So, here we are a year later and Netflix is delivering a sequel with Mrs. […]

While nobody thinks Woody Allen has another Annie Hall in him, A Rainy Day in New York is a dull and forgettable film by a director still in love with the persona he’s now too old to perform himself. Like an aging classic rocker, he seems content to pay the bills by playing the hits with a backup band who weren’t even born during his prime.
A Rainy Day in New York (2019) Movie Review By D.M. Anderson
This Boy’s Life is probably one of my top ten favorite movies. I’ve seen it several times, including again just recently. It certainly has an all-star cast, featuring Robert De Niro, a very young Leonardo DiCaprio, and Ellen Barkin. This Boy’s Life is the movie version of writer Tobias Wolff’s book of the same name, […]
Hannah Arendt is a biopic about the political theorist and author of The Origins of Totalitarianism and Eichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on the Banality of Evil, among other scholarly works. It’s not a study of her whole life, however, or even close to it; at least 90% of the film concerns Arendt’s aforementioned book […]
Hannah Arendt [subtitled in part]
By John Corrado ★★½ (out of 4) Anna Sewell’s 1877 novel Black Beauty, which was written from the perspective of a horse and had an animal rights message that was revelatory for its time, is one of the biggest selling books of all time and has been adapted for the screen a number of times […]
Netflix’in Türkiye şubesinde ilk sıralarda yer alan, Ferdi Özbeğen’i yeniden canlandırmaya çalışan fenomen dizi Bir Başkadır, çok yakın bir zamanda yayınlandı. Birbirinden ünlü oyuncu kadrosu, ilgi çeken noktalardan biri. “Masum” dizisi ile dijital platform dizilerini şaha kaldıran Berkun Oya, ne iş yapsa da izlesek dediğimiz anda herkesi telefona, bilgisayara hatta televizyona kilitlemeye yemin edercesine başardı.

GREAT FILM ENDINGS! What makes a great film ending? Well, it helps to have an amazing cinematic story before it, building to an incredible twist, memorable shock or emotionally cathartic moment. In the latest effort in my occasional series Six of the Best, I have chosen six films with […]

Ziggy Stardust is David Bowie’s alter ego for his 1972 album of the same name and subsequent tour, a fictional androgynous bisexual rock star alien sent to Earth as a saviour of sorts before an impending apocalyptic disaster. Singing about politics, sex, drugs, and the superficiality of rock and roll, Ziggy easily seduced everyone he […]
