Dinesh D’Souza’s America – How Five Documentaries Depict A Declining Conservative Intellectual

A copy of Dinesh D’Souza’s new documentary Trump Card arrived in the mail this week. I haven’t been anticipating watching it of late but I was prepared to give it a shot given that I gave the last four of his documentaries a shot.

Movie Review – On the Rocks (2020)

I’m not overly familiar with the works of Sofia Coppola. Her reputation as a filmmaker precedes her though. Famously, she starred in the most infamously panned films role in The Godfather Part 3 and then turned her reputation around with her critically acclaimed film Lost in Translation. Since then, She has worked on numerous independentContinue reading “Movie Review – On the Rocks (2020)”

Movie Review – A Rainy Day in New York (2019)

South Park’s Pandemic Special Captures the Pain of COVID Lockdowns

I’m gonna be honest, I’ve been lukewarm about South Park since the 2016 election. I still love the show to but it’s really clear to me that Parker and Stone had the wind knocked out of them by the fact that the election ruined their season long story-Arc for season 20. The seasons since haveContinue reading “South Park’s Pandemic Special Captures the Pain of COVID Lockdowns”
