Spy Film: It’s the Little Things that Matter

Posted on January 25, 2022 by cdsmiller17

A Call To Spy (2019) I watched this film of Netflix last night. I wasn’t sure what I expected, since most spy films are way too glamourized to be believed. So, you can imagine my surprise to see how understated … Continue reading →

Is Rupert Spira the Second Coming of Jesus Christ? This is going to sound weird, but it was that little *ping* that went off when I saw that Rupert Spira’s Uranus was @ 17° Leo 40′. A-ha. It’s exactly opposite … Continue reading →
