    Favorite Moments: BOYHOOD

    August 7, 2014 /

    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...

    Biopic Full of Funk: GET ON UP (James Brown)

    August 1, 2014 /

    by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor I know biopics often get a bad name, they can be cliched and predictable or the reverse, so creatively told that you lose the gist of the story and the heart of the intended subject.  I tend to like them good or bad, from offerings like The Runaways (Cherie Currie & Joan Jett) which didn’t quite hit the mark, to Ray (Ray Charles) and Walk The Line (Johnny Cash) that rightfully became critically acclaimed films.  I’m just fascinated with the whole rise and fall aspect of telling life stories.  When it comes to director Tate Taylor (The Help) efforts to tell the beginnings, middle and…

    Best Summer Movie of 2014: GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY

    July 31, 2014 /

    James Gunn has done the impossible: the former Troma director has recaptured the gleeful joy of old-school summer blockbusters and packaged it for modern sensibilities. Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy is a giddy, punk rock-infused work of pop art, blissfully aware of how pulpy it is—and damn proud of it. The director caught lightning in a bottle with this film, and it’s the most fun you’ll have at the movies all summer...

    INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS

    December 22, 2013 /

    Don’t Ask Him to Sing for His Supper By Le Anne Lindsay, Editor This is the winter of Llewyn Davis’ (Oscar Isaac) discontent. He’s got no money, no coat, no place to live and no one really likes him much. He’s got some charm and sex appeal, he can sing and play guitar, but he’s one of these people who speaks first and thinks later and has little regard for the consequences of his actions, until after his words and/or actions make trouble for him. Still, he’s not nearly as bad as Jean (Carey Mulligan) the self-righteous, singing girlfriend of a friend (Justin Timberlake) tells him he is.   With Inside…
