ELVIS – this HBO film chronicles the career of Elvis Presley from humble beginnings at Sun Records until his death in 1977. The focus of the film is his unfortunate relationship with his manager, Col. Tom Parker, played by Tom Hanks. I have no idea if Hanks’ performance is an accurate portrayal of Parker sinceContinue reading

It’s about 40 minutes of Dave addressing students, faculty and alumni at his high school alma mater, the Duke Ellington School of the Arts in New York. KellyContinue reading
NO TIME TO DIE – Back in the day, I was a fan of James Bond books and films. Nowadays, not so much, especially the films. The non-stop action and gun violence gives me anxiety and a headache. However, I was recently on a flight where viewing options were limited and this film stood outContinue reading
THE TIME TRAVELER’S WIFE – I started watching this series because of Rose Leslie and continued watching due to Theo James. I never read the 2003 book and the 2009 movie was a bore, so I had zero interest until I became aware Rose was playing the lead character. She was great as Ygritte inContinue reading
