MINI British Film Festival – Happy New Year, Colin Burstead Movie Review

The black sheep of the family, David, has been invited and everyone is not happy with that decision. Every family member seems to have their own agenda and enjoying each others company is not part of the plan. Self-serving opinions are constantly delivered under breath and truths are revealed.   //   Writer/director Ben Wheatley takes aim at the forced family dynamic and hits his target with precision and a dark wit. Acidity and sarcasm runs rampant and it’s all ...

Brittany Runs a Marathon Movie Review

The film is based on the actual experiences of writer/director Paul Downs Colaizzo’s roommate, Brittany O’Neill, who ran the New York Marathon in 2014. This work succeeds in presenting how restrictive and narrow minded the expectations placed on females in our current society really are.

Judy Movie Review

Signed to MGM Studios at a very young age, her life was almost completely controlled by its studio head, Louis B. Mayer. Never considered an out right beauty of the caliber of Liz Taylor or Ava Gardner, she was made to feel second class and was never allowed a childhood. Labour laws of the time for children actors in Hollywood were almost non-existent. They also gave her regular quantities of amphetamines to keep her thin and working. This helped to create addictions that lasted her entire ...
