Together Again!

October 10, 2016 / Amy / Adult, Drama, Movies

Coming soon: Cafe Society, the latest film by Woody Allen, will be available on DVD 10/18/16. Yes, we all know Woody Allen puts out lots of films. But this marks the third film that K-Stew and J-Berg have starred in together. (That’s Kristen Stewart and Jesse Eisenberg for the uninitiated.  And I just made up J-Berg, but […]

Everything, Everything

Once in a while I find myself wishing I could have a do-over when it comes to parts of high school. Then I remember all of the homework, tests, and angst, and that daydream easily slips away. Instead, I’ve learned to fill that fleeting (some may say silly) desire with a book, and thankfully there’s […]

Last time I shared what music I’ve been listening to lately. This week it’s all about the great television series that I’ve been binge watching. I’ve been on a British TV series kicked for the last couple of months (especially the mysteries because they’re are so many great ones out there) and I must share […]

It’s crazy how there are sometimes stories that everyone is talking about. The one that seems to be captivating everyone right now is the story of Robert Durst. If you haven’t heard anything about him, Durst is a 71-year-old real estate heir and millionaire. And on March 14, he was arrested on the charge of first-degree murder. On March 15, […]

Highly Prolific

December 15, 2014 / Amy / Adult, Classics, Drama, Movies, Romance
0

Say what you want about writer/actor/director Woody Allen, but there is one thing I’m sure we can all agree on: he is highly prolific. And when you’ve directed almost 50 films and have over 70 writing credits to your name, it’s fair to say you’re going to have some hits and some misses. I bring this […]

So you’ve just binge-watched season 3 of Homeland and are waiting for season 4 to premiere on October 5. Or maybe you’re still on hold for season 3. Or maybe you just need a new TV series to watch. Regardless, let me recommend Prisoners of War. It is the Israeli series that Homeland was based on. […]

30 Day Book Challenge: Day 19 — Favorite Book Turned into a Movie

September 19, 2014 / Dana / Adult, Crime, Drama, Fiction

Lots of my favorite books have been turned into movies, but my favorite film adaptation is: No Country for Old Men by Cormac McCarthy (book, film) Never in my life have I seen such a true adaptation. I read the book and loved it; I saw the movie and loved it. I don’t like everything they do, […]
