THE LIFE LIST:  A MOVIE THAT HAS TO BE TICKED OFF YOUR VIEWING WISHLIST 

Posted on April 1, 2025 by Nyah Barnett

“Life is beautiful and messy and complicated and sometimes it doesn’t look the way you think it’s supposed to look and that’s okay. Keep going and always be brave.”  This was the whole message of this film. I think that the established film critics have got this wrong and showing a bit of snobbery and…

WHY MISS AUSTEN MIGHT BE BETTER THAN BRIDGERTON

Posted on March 25, 2025May 8, 2025 by Nyah Barnett

For all the people who love a period drama and likes a show that is based on true events just like me, Miss Austen could become a BBC classic. It is an adaptation of Gill Hornby’s 2020 best-selling book of the same name. It might be better than Bridgerton because it just feels more authentic….

WHITE ROSE: A STORY THAT SHOUTS TO BE HEARD AND DESERVES A WEST END RUN.

Posted on March 1, 2025March 1, 2025 by Nyah Barnett

“We will not be Silent”. ” Stand Up and Resist”.  “Truth, Freedom and Honour”.  These words are the bedrock of this morality tale that is also a true story of speaking truth to power. I didn’t know the true story of Sophie Scholl and the White Rose, but it can’t be repeated enough so that…

SING SING IS GENIUS, BEAUTIFUL AND IMPRESSIVE IN SO MANY WAYS 

Posted on January 22, 2025January 26, 2025 by Nyah Barnett

“I have been playing a role my whole life” one of the inmates says when musing on his participation in the prison theatrical society. Thinking about this line, it seems a very powerful metaphor for the movie. We all have personas that we project to others, and this becomes heightened in uncompromising prison life, where…
