20th Century Women is the film Boyhood SHOULD have been.  I’m not saying Boyhood was bad, but it didn’t deliver as high of an emotional impact for me personally.  Every generation will find something to relate to in this film, even though it takes place in 1979 primarily.  Some things are universal, like mothers who try their hardest […]

Collateral Beauty has almost everything you could want from a holiday release.  Pretty decorated cast, promising premise, and a trailer that tugs the heartstrings. The story is pretty self explanatory from the trailer, grieving father Howard (Smith) is losing touch with the world and his company after the death of his 6 year old daughter. […]
