This is the site for you! With interviews, reviews and articles celebrating the world of entertainment, my inspiration is to share my passion…
ART IS PERSONAL: A REFLECTION ON JAY KELLY
“Art is personal, you know that, Pop.” That single line captures the very soul of Jay Kelly, a film that lingers long after the credits roll. In that moment, the film quietly tells us how to watch it not as spectacle or punchline, but as something deeply intimate. Directed by Noah Baumbach and written by Emily…
FROM PROOF OF CONCEPT TO SHORT FILM: SAFI TOBI ON WRITING AND DIRECTING BILLIE
For her debut short film Billie, Safi Tobi brings a sharp sense of humour to moments of discomfort, grief, and awkward human connection. Balancing comedy with emotional weight, the film feels both deeply personal and self-aware unafraid to poke fun at cinematic tropes while still taking its characters seriously. Having previously worked on major productions including Ted…
2026 COULD BE A GREAT YEAR FOR ROMANCE!
People falling in love will never get boring for movie lovers. Everyone enjoys the “will they, won’t they get together” narrative that drives most romantic dramas and comedies, so it doesn’t really matter if it’s a period piece or a sci-fi extravaganza. All we really want is to see our lovers make it to the…
THE GOLDEN GLOBES NOMINATIONS BUT NOT AS WE KNOW THEM
The Golden Globes promised a reinvention this year new voters, new systems, new energy and yes, some things genuinely have changed. But here we are again, staring at a nominations list that somehow manages to feel both brand-new and déjà vu at the same time. The same old shows and the same old faces pop up, reminding…
12 ANGRY MEN: THE FIRST AND STILL THE BEST COURTROOM DRAMA
Released in 1957 this classic story of justice, dignity and the fight for what is right unbelievably won no oscars at that year’s ceremony. It is now considered one of the greatest films ever made and sits comfortably in my all time top 10. There are no special effects, no grand sets and no over…
MY SECRET SANTA: SWEET CHEMISTRY WRAPPED IN A WEAK SCRIPT.
I don’t know what it is about this year’s Christmas movies, but they just aren’t hitting the same way they have in recent years. My Secret Santa had so much potential, and on paper it should have been one of the charming holiday standouts of the season. The premise is genuinely sweet: a single mom named…
SEAN COMBS THE RECKONING: THE SORDID STORY THAT WONT GO AWAY
As I have said in previous articles during the trial of the Hip-Hop superstar Sean “Diddy” Combs, his conviction for soliciting prostitution could be seen as a let off considering his abusive treatment of women over a long period of time. So, you would think that no matter how aggrieved Combs was with the new…
MY LIST OF THE BEST AND WORST TV SHOWS THIS YEAR PLUS SOME HIDDEN GEMS
It’s that time of year again when I look back at my personal TV highs and lows and shout out a few favourites that might have slipped under the radar. It’s been a surprisingly strong year, with plenty of series giving films a proper run for their money. I’m sure I’ve missed many of your…
LETTERMAN’S NEXT GUEST IS THE LIKEABLE, DOWN-TO-EARTH ADAM SANDLER
I was filled with trepidation before watching this Netflix in-depth interview because I have never really warmed to David Letterman. His long-running late-night show on NBC often had me rolling my eyes as he interrupted guests with smug, unfunny comments. However, he seems to have mellowed, and this conversation with the Marmite Adam Sandler is…
THE GRIM – A FAST, FUNNY, AND WONDERFULLY WEIRD NIGHT AT THE THEATRE
The Grim is one of those plays that feels like a welcome throwback fast-talking, witty, and proudly chaotic, the sort of old-style theatre you don’t often see anymore. Set in London in 1964, it follows Shaun (Edmund Morris) and Robert, two undertakers trying to get through another uneventful morning in the East End. That calm day…
