DIVERGENT (1 of 3 Franchise)
Our fierce, loyal, full of bravery and heart heroine of this futuristic time is named Beatrice (Shailene Woodley), but upon starting her new “Dauntless” life, she changes it to Tris. Okay, we’re going to need a… T&T Synopsis: Like most stories set in the not too distant future, the aftermath of a terrible war precipitated the need to form a new society (and who knows with the whole Putin/Crimea annexed thing, this future may not be too far off). This new society living behind a wall, which we know not what lay on the other side, decided it best to divide people up into 5 categories or Factions: Government…

The Society of the Crossed Keys: The Grand Budapest Hotel
I was particularly taken with this scene, as I’ve had a recurring fantasy of a similar nature; dining in a fine, old mansion, estate, castle or grand hotel, having course after course of gastronomic wonders, paired with wine and spirits; seated at an elaborately decorated table, across from a fascinating person with an amazing life story to tell.

Candi’s Corner: Interview with Mr. Peabody & Sherman Director Rob Minkoff
Tinsel & Tine Intro: It’s nice having a staff, wish I could pay them, but at least when I can’t cover an interview or event, it’s fun to be able to send someone who I know will represent Tinsel & Tine as I would.

A Gift for the Lent & Easter Season 2014: SON OF GOD
I know Jesus lived, and I know he came to make his spirit and God's love known upon the world.

A Quickie: ABOUT LAST NIGHT
It’s Valentine’s Day and once again I’m spending it alone. I’m not bitter, certainly used to it; but I’m also not in the mood to write a really in depth review on a movie about sex and relationships. Even though the relationships throughout About Last Night are rocky at best, but at least both couples are GETT’N SOME! So in short, I’ve never seen the original, About Last Night with Demi Moore and Rob Lowe, but I did find someone who took the time to write a transcript of that version –Drew’s Script-O-Rama (which I thought was funny). I’ve never read the David Mamet play which both movies are based upon.…
