M (1931)
Introduction From: IMDB Fritz Lang is undoubtedly one of the greatest filmmakers of all time and honestly, he is one of my personal favourite filmmakers too. His influence on film noir has been unequalled by any other director and his narratives told in strange ways in his films have been incredible to watch unfold. M is one of the first real crime films ever made in a classic style containing a modern storyline.

Morality, Power and Politics in "Macbeth" by W. Shakespeare
There exists a theatrical production of such immense power that an ancient belief insists that its name should never be spoken within the confines of a theater. This play commences with the dark arts of witchcraft and concludes with a gruesome decapitation. It is a play that encompasses enigmatic puzzles, prophetic visions, and a multitude of savage killings. This particular play, penned by the renowned William Shakespeare, is commonly known as the "Scottish Play" or the "Tragedy of Macbeth."

Three Classic British Films to Watch for the Fever-Dream Experience
I have been blessed/cursed with being a vivid dreamer. Last night, I dreamt about touring with Midge Ure from Ultravox, as his comedy support. (There was also a sub-plot scandal involving footballer, Wayne Rooney). Midge and I were stuck on a motorway in a camper van full of leaflets and I could feel the gentle humming of the engine as we panicked about making our next gig. I woke up with my hefty cat, sitting purring on my chest.

Reviewing a Pair of Villainesses from "A Job to Kill For"
One vintage Lifetime film I remember well is A Job to Kill For, which I have seen quite a few times; as recently as a few days ago for the purpose of writing this review. On that day, it was the first time I had seen it in a number of years, and I have Tubi to thank for this, because they are a hotbed of classic Lifetime films, and some Lifetime-esque original films.
