Movie Review: LAST NIGHT IN SOHO Starring Thomasin McKenzie, Anya Taylor-Joy, Matt Smith

Posted: October 29, 2021 at 7:23 am   /   Movie Reviews

Movie Review: DUNE Starring Timothée Chalamet, Rebecca Ferguson, Oscar Isaac

Posted: October 22, 2021 at 12:19 pm   /   Movie Reviews

“Write what you know.” That’s a quote attributed to Mark Twain, and also advice author Thomas Weaver – one of two main characters in The Story of My Life – keeps telling himself. It sounds easy enough… and logical. But isn’t it true that what we know changes over time? Not just the facts we […]
