Indie Movie Review – Fugue
Fugue opens with a two part definition of what a fugue actually is… A period during which a person suffers from loss of memory, often begins a new life, and upon recovery, remembers nothing of the amnesic phase. A musical form consisting of a theme repeated a fifth above or a forth below the continuing first…

Indie Movie Review – Sinbad The Fifth Voyage (Ultimate Director’s Cut)
Sinbad: The Fifth Voyage Ultimate Director’s Cut, to give it its full title, hooked me in from the first words. Mind you, they were spoken by Sir Patrick Stewart and I would do anything asked of me by that voice! I’m old and straight but if he asked, I’d think about it. Fortunately I know…
