Talking about sick children with cancer isn’t a topic I normally cover here on my blog, but watching and reviewing films is. Today, those two topics collide as I share my no-spoiler review of Audrey’s Children, a biopic film that takes on children’s cancer in 1969. Since this is a no-spoiler review, I won’t go into much detail about the children, but please stop reading here if this topic is upsetting.

The awards season for 2025 wraps up this Sunday, March 2, 2025 with the airing of the 97th Academy Awards. It’s a long-standing tradition for my husband and I to tune in for this event. We’ve been watching the awards together since the early 90’s and consider it a fun date night.
Happy Monday readers. I’m excited to be able to combine two things I love to share with you in one post today- a new movie for you to add to your watch list and an awesome giveaway! How’s that for a cool way to kick off 2025?

Happy New Year dear readers! Since it’s the seventh day of the month, I’m sure you are getting tired of hearing that, but I would be remiss in my blogging duties if I didn’t extend well wishes here- the hub of all I do online. Now I can dive into today’s topic, my top six blog posts of 2024.
For the next week or so, I’ll be sharing film suggestions and reviews with you for the upcoming holidays, and the lead-up to awards season. It’s hard to believe I’ll be taking part in my fourth Oscar season this year with the Music City Film Critics Association, based in Nashville, TN. Today, we’re talking about Dear Santa! I know you’re going to enjoy all the holiday hijinks that Jack Black brings to Dear Santa. Here’s my no-spoiler review.
Happy Holidays dear readers. I’m excited for today’s gift guide because I love films and I know so many of you do as well. I have a film suggestion for everyone in the family in this gift guide. There’s two new release films, two classic films, and one horror film.
It’s the last day of October and I feel like this month had wings because it went by so quickly. I wish all who celebrate a very happy and safe Halloween. If you don’t have plans for Friday, or the weekend, I’ve got a film suggestion for you. Lost On A Mountain In Maine, which opens in theaters tomorrow November 1st will have you feeling connected to home just in time for the holidays.

Are you looking for a fun film stream tonight or this weekend? Then check out Wolfs on Apple TV +. As a member of the Music City Film Critics Association, I recently received a press screener pass for this and must say, my husband and I really enjoyed Wolfs. Clooney and Pitt teamed up again to bring their own special brand of comedic timing to this film. Here’s my no-spoiler review.

I’m honored to be part of the press that’s providing coverage of the 55th Nashville Film Festival, which kicks off in Nashville, Tennessee this evening at 5;30pm. I wish I could attend this year's red carpet event at the Belcourt Theatre like I did two years ago. It was an exciting event and I learned a great deal about providing coverage at a festival. This year’s festival looks just as exciting and I’ll be sharing coverage throughout the week here on the blog and on socials.

It’s been thirty six years in the making. Thirty six years of waiting and using his name as a way to prank friends, but now the wait is finally over because he’s back at last!

Earlier this week, I was invited to a press screening for Music City Film Critics Association hosted by Allied Global Marketing and here’s my no spoiler review.

If you follow me on social media, you may have caught my recent post about the film God Bless Bitcoin. The overall consensus was, most of us don’t know much about BitCoin. One follower even said the idea of BitCoin scares her. In an effort to better understand this type of currency, or crypto currency, I had the opportunity to interview the producers of GodBless Bitcoin for today’s post.

Hello, and happy 2024! I might be overstating the obvious here, since my last blog post was on December 22,2023, but I have relished having time off to fully enjoy the holidays and my people. I’m coming back to work today feeling rested and ready to take on this new year full of possibilities. Before I dive into this year, I thought it’d be fun to take a look at my top ten blog posts of 2023 and share what’s in store for 2024.
I hope everyone who celebrates Christmas had a wonderful holiday. I sure did. As we inch closer to the year's end, our thoughts usually turn to end-of-year reflections. Did we achieve the goals we made in 2023? Did we fulfill any dreams? I can happily say yes, but for some who find themselves dreaming of Nicholas Cage's character in Dream Scenario, happy is not the term they would use!
What do you think of when you hear the name Ferrari? For most of us, the answer is beautiful red fast race cars. And you’ll see plenty of these beauties in Micheal Mann’s Ferrari, coming to theaters on Christmas Day. I received a press screener from Neon, and let me just say you may want to add this going to see this film to your holiday plans.

My Dad was a huge fan of Rocky films, so of course, I’ve seen key scenes from several of the films in the Rocky film franchise, which launched in 1976 with the film Rocky and concluded with Rocky Balboa in 2006, or so we thought. Rocky made a comeback in 2015 in Creed in which Rocky trains Adonis Creed and the beginning of the Creed films got their start. As was the case with Rocky films, I’d only watched a few key scenes from Creed films because my husband is a fan.

Earlier this week, my husband and I had the privilege of attending an IMAX press screening of The Marvels, along with other accredited film critics who, like me, are members of the Music City Film Critics Association. I say this because there is something special about watching a film with others in the audience. It’s fun to be with peers and their plus ones and enjoy this time together. Together is one of the key components of The Marvels, and I can’t wait to share my no-spoiler (hopefully!) thoughts with you.
