The Top 10 Best Films of 2017
Making a list of the best films of the year and putting them in some kind of respectable order has always been difficult. How can you really compare a film like Get Out and say it’s better or not quite as good as Coco? You can’t. Not if you consider yourself a genuine follower of […]

Molly’s Game – Film Review
“This is a true story,” explains Molly Bloom (Jessica Chastain) in a lengthy, opening, voice-over narration, “But except for my own, I’ve changed all the names and done my best to obscure identities for reasons that’ll be clear.” Then comes the introduction. “I’m Molly Bloom.” If you’re unclear as to who Molly Bloom is, and […]

Rodgers + Hammerstein’s Cinderella – Theatre Review: National Touring Company Production, ASU Gammage, Tempe
There’s a long forgotten musical that opened on Broadway in 1938. It was revived on stage at London’s Theatre Royal Drury Lane in 1970, then on the massively curved Cinerama screen as a 1972 musical movie epic. Despite the revivals, it remains mostly forgotten, and for a good reason. It wasn’t particularly good. It was […]
