What I think about films, TV and celebs!
Mart Crowley‘s play The Boys in the Band was groundbreaking when it premiered in 1968 as it was one of the first to focus on the lives of gay men, but did it need another film remake now that gay stories are frequently being told? Read on to find out.
It’s baaaaack! For the first time since March, there seem to be enough movie releases to bring back my monthly movie preview.
Many films have been made about notorious American serial killer Ted Bundy, who confessed to killing 30 women across several states in the 1970s (although it is expected to be many more) and so Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile goes for a fresh perspective – that of his longtime girlfriend Elizabeth Kloepfer, based on her book.
I had been wanting to see Hidden Figures for some time because it seemed like the type of inspiring true story that’s up my street and it annoyed me that there was such a big gap between US and UK releases. As I expected, it was worth the wait and I absolutely loved it.
I did not have high hopes for Home. The trailer looked lame and the jokes seemed dumb and Dreamworks animations are hit and miss. So colour me pleasantly surprised when Home turned out to be AWESOME. I really enjoyed it and it’s a perfect family film.
