Review: ‘Graceland’
I sincerely hope Hollywood doesn’t get a hold of this for a remake. Everything that makes Graceland special would be scrapped clean into something totally generic… and this is not all generic.
Review: ‘The Place Beyond The Pines’
The film is frustrating towards the end, yes, but as always, performances win out
SXSW Review: ‘Mud’ starring Matthew McConaughey
McConaughey’s hot streak continues with the absolutely wonderful, Mud
SXSW Review: ‘Drinking Buddies’
If I had a drinking buddy as attractive, smart and cool as the character she plays in Joe Swanberg’s new film, Drinking Buddies, I’d be slamming a few back with her right now.
SXSW Review: ‘Euphonia’
The teens in the film (which also include Maria DeCortis and Benjamin Papacare) are true teenagers, – all zits and gangly – and their performances were real and authentic, especially from Will Madden.
SXSW Review: ‘I Am Divine’
Jeffrey Schwarz’s doc is a tribute to Divine, his work and his life and it shouldn’t be missed.
Review: ‘Ann’ at the Vivian Beaumont Theater (NYC)
The best way to describe Ann, Holland Taylor’s one-woman show about former governor of Texas Ann Richards that she both wrote and stars in, is what the Hall of Presidents in Disney World would be like if instead of a robotic Barack Obama the host was a Texas-twanged white-haired lady who didn’t care that she was on a stage in the family-friendliest theme park in the world.
Review: ‘A Lie of the Mind’ / ‘Miss Julie’ at the Sargent Theatre (NYC)
When people I know in theater ask me what growing company I think has its act together (horrible pun not intended), The Seeing Place is always the first that comes to mind.
Review: ’21 & Over’
Yeah, there’s nothing really new in the film but that doesn’t mean it’s not hilarious.
Review: ‘#hero’ at The Chain Theatre (NYC)
The biggest compliment I can give the cast and crew of #hero is that the approximately 110 minute play is just too short to fully tackle the full potential of these characters.
Review: ‘Bullet to the Head’ starring Sylvester Stallone
The film is a totally enjoyable, leave-your-brain-at-the-door flick.
Review: ‘After the Fall’ at The Chain Theatre (NYC)
Without question, the highlight of this production is the cast.
Review: ‘Broken City’
Wahlberg stars as a former police officer turned private investigator who has a history with Russell Crowe’s Mayor of New York City.
Review: ‘Hyde Park on Hudson’
If you’ve ever wanted to watch a former president get a handjob, well you are in luck my friend, because the new film, Hyde Park on the Hudson, is now in theaters.
Review: ‘The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey’
If you’re a fan of the series, you’re bound to love it. If not….
‘The Playbill Broadway Yearbook: June 2011 to May 2012’ Book Review
Once again, The Playbill Broadway Year
Review: ‘Love Song’ at the Sargent Theater (NYC)
New York City’s The Seeing Place has constantly demonstrated that what it offers is versatility in its productions, but the only thing that never changes is the quality of the performance and the value of the ticket prices.
In Theaters: Red Dawn, Life of Pi, Anna Karenina and Holy Motors
Life of Pi is the film to see this holiday weekend
