    Movie Blog Post: THE HERO

    June 28, 2017 /

    Laura Prepon (That’s 70’s Show and Orange is the New Black) plays Lee Hayden’s love interest. You’d think that would be icky, with the age difference, instead you really get the sense that they’re responding as two people who recognize a bit of themselves in the other...

    Movie Blog Post: ALL EYEZ ON ME

    June 23, 2017 /

    Tinsel & Tine’s Look at ALL EYEZ ON ME By Le Anne Lindsay, Editor I didn’t really grow up on hip hop like my younger brother and older sister did, so I came at the movie, ALL EYEZ ON ME, rather neutral about Tupac Shakur, who still holds deity status in the rap/hip hop culture. Of course, I have basic knowledge of the players & East Coast / West Coast feud, mostly because I’ve seen the Biggie biopic NOTORIOUS and the N.W.A biopic STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON,  but that doesn’t give me the authority to speak back to the critics who say it may be a fine biopic for the uninitiated,…

    Movie Blog Post: THE BOOK OF HENRY

    June 19, 2017 /

    Tinsel & Tine’s Look at THE BOOK OF HENRY By Le Anne Lindsay, Editor Every minute I was walking the tightrope you’re talking about, every step of the way. And as a result…I never had a moment on Jurassic World where I was as consumed with fear and anxiety about what I was doing as I did on The Book of Henry. But I recognize everything that is dangerous about the choices that the movie makes and I know that if not handled with care, and arguably, if not handled delicately, it’s something that could fall apart. Even if the performances were terrible, it’s something that could fall apart. I…

    Movie Blog Post: MY COUSIN RACHEL

    June 11, 2017 /

    Tinsel & Tine Highlights: MY COUSIN RACHEL By Le Anne Lindsay, Editor I’ve mentioned many times that my all time favorite movie is Hitchcock’s REBECCA (click for T&T post) based on a novel by Daphne du Maurier so it’s odd that I have yet to see the original 1952 My Cousin Rachel also based upon a du Maurier story, starring Olivia de Havilland (miscast, according to du Maurier) and a very young Richard Burton. I’ll have to rectify that soon; however, I had been looking forward to this remake starring Rachel Weisz & Sam Clafin (Me Before You) and I’m happy to say this version of the Gothic film did…

    Philly Spotlight: GPFO Rally to Un-cap PA Tax Credit

    June 7, 2017 /

    Recap: Rally for the Philadelphia Film Industry By Le Anne Lindsay, Editor  Tinsel & Tine The Greater Philadelphia Film Office is keeping track of movies and television shows that were meant to shoot here, and didn’t. World War Z, The Bourne Legacy, House of Cards and American Hustle are on their list. The office contends that Pennsylvania lost these projects because there weren’t enough tax credits to entice them. Concerns that the state’s film tax credit program could be eliminated entirely in Pennsylvania’s upcoming budget talks, spurred Sharon Pinkenson and her team at The GPFO to organized a Rally, held last Saturday, June 3rd, to stir up awareness and support…
