Hachi: A Dog’s Tale (2009) I should have known better: with BeBe’s current state of health (and mind), this little film was going to break my heart. I blubbered a lot of tears. In October 2009, Christopher Lloyd of the Sarasota … Continue reading

Hercule Poirot, He is Not, but It’s Still Fun
Glass Onion (2022) About an hour in, I wonder if this was a “Ten Little Indians/And Then There Were None” remake, but I was wrong. It’s much more fun than that. Glass Onion is the second film in this newly … Continue reading

When the Spirits are Willing, But the Script is Weak

How to Turn the Christmas Movie Format on Its Head
The Noel Diary (2022) This TV movie is presently on Netflix (it premiered yesterday). As you may know, I’m a little bit jaded with the Hallmark Christmas shows, so this one is a bit of a pleasant surprise. The themes … Continue reading

Subtle Clue? She’s “Home Alone” Too
