Sir Gawain ventured boldly across a woefully bleak wasteland, with a heavy heart, burdened mind and courageous spirit. Hornswoggled by a mischievous and duplicitous child and his gang, the knight-to-be was left, bereft of his belongings and beloved horse, lost in the woods. Plunging with vigor and fervor into the mystical depths of the springContinue reading “The Green Knight”

*heavy spoilers* Nic Cage’s skills are so polished in the here and how, juxtaposing Pig and Mandy is a treat for anyone who is a fan. It is interesting as a dichotomy because Pig has such a somber, sullen tone to it and there are such wonderful soft hues of the earth, golden and relaxingContinue reading “Pig vs. Mandy”

With heavy heart, bearing witness to Chairman Fred Hampton’s loss of life is a tremendous emotional journey. “You can murder a revolutionary but you can’t murder a revolution” and this is the hope we carry with us. In the wake of his death, the mother of his son and Fred Jr. are alive and wellContinue reading “Judas’ Ultimate Betrayal of the Black Messiah”

Gotham is besieged with never ending nemeses! B.D. Wong – Hugo Strange Perfectly poised, his acting is excellent in execution, and eccentricity is the definition of B.D. Wong as Hugo Strange. What are his motives? Why is he performing such peculiar experiments? Where does his expertise come from? How is response to the grotesque andContinue reading “More Trouble in the Gritty City”

Jerome’s transformation, head hanging low, thenContinue reading “Caped Crusader Continues!”

Approximately midway through Season 1, these are some of my current free flowing thoughts on Gotham. The magic within Batman as a superhero has always been my favorite. Rooted in reality for the most part and someone I’d believe in is what draws me in. Here we go: Painted skies and a muted palette acrossContinue reading “Gotham Begins”

Straight out of the gate, one must recognize all the societal issues in this movie that are currently shaking the world to its core. Adding to that impact, shortly before everything shut down in the midst of a deadly pandemic, I lost the opportunity to enjoy this film in theaters. Thus, here I am, delightedContinue reading “Queen & Slim’s Wild Ride”

“Whenever I find myself growing grim about the mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul; whenever I find myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses…then, I account it high time to get to sea as soon as I can” – Herman Melville, Moby Dick Composition, contrast and clarity are stunning. A deepContinue reading “Darkness in The Lighthouse”

            Out of the innumerable movies that I have seen, The Grand Budapest Hotel is the closest example of perfection that I have ever had the pleasure to witness. Wes Anderson designs this film with a smoothly soft palette of pastel, but the plot line and characters are anything but dull.             It is quiteContinue reading “For Agatha: The Grand Budapest Hotel”

            In the wild world of The Handmaid’s Tale, Ann Dowd has the power to make any fan feel frustration and potentially hatred towards her. Not here. Not in this episode.
