Big Sur destroys Jack Kerouac’s legend, revealing the beatnik icon to be a self-pitying, self-absorbed alky. Generations of young romantics were awestruck by the celebrated author, pining for his life On The Road. I’ve long been one of those romantics, so was eager for a peek. But, as it’s sa…

J. Robert Oppenheimer is an American hero, flawed like most, resolute when it mattered. The Father of the Atomic Bomb saved countless US Marines, sailors and airmen when his work forced Imperial Japan to surrender short of an amphibious attack on Tokyo. (That would have made Iwo Jima look like …

Widow maker indeed. If you thought you already know how stressful things are on a wartime submarine? Try a nuclear submarine with a reactor failure. Starting with the champagne bottle that would not break at the christening, you knew things were going to go badly for the sea trials of K-19, Ru… |

I can’t say much more than simply see this documentary if you are either a Doors fan or a fan of 60’s and 70’s music lore. The iconic Jim Morrison had a mind that few could fully understand; The poetry in his music and the unpredictability of his life is something that many will talk about… |

Beyonce, Jaimie Foxx, Eddie Murphy, Danny Glover, Jennifer Hudson – need I add more? There were more. A terrific cast did a great job of giving us a glimpse into the life of soul-sisters in the 60’s. It was a little weird seeing Eddie Murphy singing like James Brown, but the unexpected musical … |

An intriguing tale of a botched UN mission in the Congo in 1961. Irish Commandant Pat Quinlan leads resilient crew of Irish soldiers against French and other mercenaries loyal to the mining interests. The movie does a great job conveying the gallantry during the battle by the neophyte Irish sol… |
