Movie Review – Here Today
—
Here Today blew me away. The story was gut-wrenchingly sad and so perfectly acted by Billy Crystal. It felt like in each and every scene, he was my own father going through it. My emotions were right there with Charlie. Top-notch performance! The comedy was so well done that I’d laugh as I was crying.…

Movie Review – Those Who Wish Me Dead
—
Have you ever had your friend tell you a story that they were excited about but sounds bland to you and they end with, “I don’t do it justice, it’s better if you were there”? This is that kind of movie. It’s not bad — it’s just bland. You will experience touching moments here and…

Indie Movie Review – Undergods
Undergods was a surprise to me. I wasn’t a hundred percent sure what it was going to be about but, given it’s described as “an otherworldly journey through a Europe in decline”, I wasn’t expecting a lot of laughs. It turns out that Undergods is quite bleak but not relentlessly so, despite the fact that the linking…

Movie Review – The Secret Garden (2020)
—
I’m a huge Secret Garden fan and have been since a wonderful teacher read it chapter by chapter to my rapt class in the 4th grade. It’s on my top ten list of favorite children’s books, and will be getting a reread review this year as I work through my stack of morning yoga reads.…

A Take 2 Movie Review – Flesh Is Heir To
Recently, our UK RunPee reviewer Rob Williams reviewed this movie. The movie studio complained, so we decided to give it another look. I offered to watch it to give a counterpoint review. However, I didn’t enjoy the movie any more than he did. (Note: I have not yet read his review so as not…

10 Movies About Authors That Will Inspire You To Write
There’s a reason good movies about authors aren’t common; while their creations can be an awe-inspiring journey into fantastical lands or a hard look into fictitious or non-fictitious pasts, the process itself lacks the excitement big screen productions need to succeed. The anger and frustration of producing written works is internalised and difficult to express,…
