Wanted to Stay: THIS IS WHERE I LEAVE YOU
Are you closer to your siblings now that everyone’s an adult, or was the bond tighter as children? I have three sisters and a brother, and up until recently, when one of my sisters and I decided to move in together to share expenses, our relationships mainly consisted of holiday and birthday gatherings of G rated catch ups on life. Nothing too dramatic, nothing too revealing and God, it’s been ages since any of us has brought anyone home to meet the family. A movie about our sibling dynamics would not be very interesting, on the surface… In This is Where I Leave You, novelist/screenwriter Jonathan Tropper takes a family…

How Much is That Doggy in the Trash Can? – THE DROP
by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor I became a Tom Hardy fan from his role in Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (click for T&T post), which wasn’t a big role for him, but there was a sexy indolence about the way he played that character that caught my notice. My sister fell for him in This Means War, (click for T&T post) not the best spy rom/com, but I agree he’s rather adorably charming in that flick.

Win The Trip to Italy – Screening Passes in Philly

Foodie Film: THE HUNDRED-FOOT JOURNEY
by Denine R. Gorniak, Contributor Far too many foodie movies have not yet been covered on Tinsel & Tine despite the fact they speak to my brand. I was about to miss another opportunity with The Hundred-Foot Journey, (Produced by Steven Spielberg & Oprah Winfrey) as I had conflicts with both screenings, but to the rescue, my foodie friend and fellow blogger Denine Gorniak – The Bicycle-Chef, covered the Prince Music Theater screening, which included a post panel discussion with Philly Chefs – Marc Summer and Marc Vetri, and as you’ll read, she did fabulous job! – Le Anne Lindsay, Editor The Hundred-Foot Journey Review The movie, The Hundred-…

Favorite Moments: BOYHOOD
How I wish I could have filmed the last 12-15 years of my life, because I swear it often feels like I've done nothing, barely enjoyed myself, have made no progress, can't think of a single anecdote to tell and the small significant moments of in-significances, just don't seem to be stored in my brain...
