HUMMEL Review: Woman in the Window (2021)
I’m not familiar with AJ Finn’s 2018 novel of the same name as the film that just go released this year. I’m aware is somewhat along the lines of recent lurid female-centric thriller novels like Girl on the Train or Gone Girl but beyond that I approached the film mostly blind. My primarily interest inContinue reading “HUMMEL Review: Woman in the Window (2021)”
HUMMEL Review: A Quiet Place – Part II
John Krasinski really broke out into the mainstream in an major way in 2018 with his directorial debut A Quiet Place. While not necessarily the most original or logical film in the world, it was one heck of a display of his dramatic bonafides that immediately raised him to a place of distinction among aContinue reading “HUMMEL Review: A Quiet Place – Part II”
COSMO – Building an UN-woke Children’s Library

As we see in one of Thomas Jefferson’s most secretive personal projects, such questions have never been easy to resolve. In 1820, he infamously carved copies ofContinue reading “GUG Book Review: Thomas Jefferson’s Bible”
HUMMEL Review – The Outpost (2020)
VOD releases defined much of 2020’s available cinema. That’s not surprising given how little there was to actually work win for professional critics. What else were they supposed to review? Thankfully, this set of circumstances gave smaller films a chance to shine in a space they otherwise might’ve flopped in. One of them was TheContinue reading “HUMMEL Review – The Outpost (2020)”
