    Film Bite: Me and Earl and the Dying Girl

    June 26, 2015 /

    Comparisons of course are being made between Me and Earl and the Dying Girl and The Fault in Our Stars (click for T&T post) They're both books to movies aimed at a young adult audience using humor to defuse the bleakness of staring mortality in the face at such a young age.  But Fault is a straight up story about falling in love and Earl tries to pretend it's not...

    Candi’s Corner: THE SPECTACULAR NOW

    August 21, 2013 /

    QFEST Opening Film: G.B.F.

    Last night QFEST (LGBT Film Festival in Philadelphia) opened with G.B.F. an acronym for Gay Best Friend. This movie could quite possibly be the Clueless for this generation and Sasha Pieterse (Pretty Little Liars)  today’s Alicia Silverstone. G.B.F. (which premiered at TriBeCa 2013) is set in a high school where no kid has yet to come out. However, there is a gender equality organization looking for someone to defend. There’s also 3 major school cliques – one run by a perfect blonde “mean girl” bombshell, Fawcett (Sasha Pieterse); a fierce, black, drama queen, Caprice (Xosha Roquemore); and a “purity” Mormon, Shley (Andrea Bowen). All three of these girls know the…
