Really great story about the beautiful and ageless Adeline (Blake Lively) set in the beautiful and ageless San Francisco Bay Area. What starts off as a novelty just becomes sad as poor Adeline outlives all her loves and constantly hides from relationships to avoid the pain. Makes you think. Of …

Well, I did learn a bit about local history. Odd I’ve never been to the actual house. My wife tells me that, other than the obvious, many threads of the story are true to life. Poor old Mrs. Winchester dealing with the perceived guild of being part of the Winchester enterprise. I think the movie…

This epic TV miniseries follows ex Texas Rangers (Robert Duvall, Tommy Lee Jones) as they steal horses in Mexico then get involved in a cattle drive to Montana in the 1880’s. A little Kitschy at times, but endearing to watch the pair banter back and forth and perform their manly cowboy roles. …

Was this the film that inspired the TV show ‘Friday Night Lights’? It could have been, except it has more humor and the drama isn’t as heavy.. In the big state of Texas, Football is king, it is the place where a winning team and its coach are revered, and not much else matters – including…

Can you really make an entire feature length film out of a single day’s events following JFK’s assasination? Well, yes – by following four different stories: Zapruder the famous film-maker, The Oswalds, the law, and the emergency room doctors and nurses. The result is a bit muddled, but keeps …

The movie that sparked the highly successful TV series did so for a reason. Immersion in to small town football drama is like no other. Let Billy Bob Thornton and cast take you away for a while in to the land of Texas gridiron.

Finn Wittrock and Aaron Eckhart are great in this story about Freddie Steinmark. Freddie, who, despite never being made an all American, was identified by the Great UT Coach Royal as “his All American”. His heart and determination helped his team win a national championship, and his fight with…

I think this movie does an admirable job of portraying the struggle that youth in challenging situations must face: break free or succumb to environmental pressures. Cuba Gooding Jr was a top rate choice for the role as he exudes a look of genuine integrity. I really liked Laurene Fishburne as t…
