PAMELA, A LOVE STORY – Pamela Anderson’s endearing memoir of her wild, adventurous life and shared with us in her own words. She wasn’t what I expected. I admire her candor and her ability to embrace all aspects of her life, the painful and the pleasurable, with humor and love. We even get a peekContinue reading

THE LORD OF THE RINGS Fellowship of the Ring – Is there anyone who hasn’t seen the LOTR trilogy? Yes. Kelly and me, to name two. So when it dropped on NetFlix we watched it. Kelly and Van loved it. I liked it, but not enough to sit through two more 3-hour films to seeContinue reading
HORROR STORIES – Another Twilight Zone-ish bore. Skip it! Cheers! Boyfriends/Girlfriends – 0.
GUNTHER’S MILLIONS – Wealthy heiress dies and leaves fortune to her German Shepherd. Four hundred million to be exact. Or maybe not. After all, a human needs to manage the funds, right? This dog has more folks on the payroll than Elon Musk…with a lifestyle much more decadent and depraved I presume! The only requirementContinue reading
BLONDE – It’s important to state right off the bat this film is not a documentary or biography. It’s a fictionalized version of Marilyn Monroe’s life taken from the novel by Joyce Carol Oates. While much of it is factual and based on actual events, some of it is simply the author’s imagination. That said,Continue reading
THE PALE BLUE EYE – Interesting historical fiction mystery based on the novel by Louis Bayard. Set in the 1830s, and centering on Edgar Allan Poe’s brief time as a West Point cadet, a series of murders occur at the military academy. Harry Melling, who plays Poe, would be a dead ringer for the poet…Continue reading
CABINET OF CURIOSITIES – Think Twilight Zone and Night Gallery with Guillermo Del Toro hosting instead of Rod Serling. Exactly what you’d expect…including use of some A-list actors and stories a bit on the boring side. Cheers! Boyfriends/Girlfriends – 0.
THE INVITATION – Mirith and I were planning to see this in the theatre, but it was in and out so fast we didn’t have the opportunity. We thought that meant it wasn’t very good, but it actually wasn’t bad. It’s a horror film from Mike Flanagan – sometimes he nails it and sometimes heContinue reading
GLASS ONION : A KNIVES OUT MYSTERY – Y’all know I’m not big on whodunnits, but this one is fun. I liked it. Boyfriends/Girlfriends – 0.
HARRY & MEGHAN – About what you’d expect from a documentary about Harry & Meghan. Kelly found it boring. I found it a bit self-serving. I did enjoy learning some history of the Royal family. Harry’s reveal of protocol, growing up within the institution and behind-the-scenes behavior of high-born Royals was also interesting. Beyond that…skipContinue reading
