This weekend, I watched the latest Mission: Impossible installment- The Final Reckoning (is it really the final one? Who knows anymore?). What I do know is that this franchise has lived a long life powered by Tom Cruise’s energy, charisma, and refusal to slow down. And, while this […]
Why these two, though? And what does my current TV lineup say about my psyche? Let’s start with So I Married an Axe Murderer. Mike Myers plays a quirky, commitment-phobic poet who suspects his new wife might just be a serial killer. Casual, right? It’s ridiculous, irreverent, and […]
If you could be a character from a book or film, who would you be? Why? Growing up, we all had our cinematic idols. For me, it was Clarice from “Silence of the Lambs” – smart, courageous, and always hearing the metaphorical lamb’s cry. But as life unfolds, […]
What movies or TV series have you watched more than 5 times? Hello and hello. I’ve been a bit remiss, as of late, in my writings. A number of factors contribute to this. However, it’s namely I’ve been very busy reflecting and thinking about life paths. Because that […]
