I Can't Stop Watching Santa Girl
There are some movies out there that grab us, pull us in and cling to us, shaping who we are and speaking to us on a deeper level, and then there are those that seem to grab hold of us for no apparent reason. I have a few like this, where I can recognize their badness or mediocrity and yet, something about them latches onto me and I can't get them out of my head and watching them becomes this sort of comfort food.

Full Metal Jacket (1987)
In this article, we will be looking at 2019’s book “1001 Movies to See Before You Die” and going through each film in a random order that I have chosen. We will be looking at what constitutes this film to be on the list and whether I think this film deserves to be here at all. I want to make perfectly clear that I won’t be revealing details from this book such as analyses by film reporters who have written about the film in question, so if you want the book itself you’ll have to buy it. But I will be covering the book’s suggestions on which films should be your top priority. I wouldn’t doubt for a second that everyone reading this article has probably watched many of these movies anyway. But we are just here to have a bit of fun. We’re going to not just look at whether it should be on this list but we’re also going to look at why the film has such a legacy at all. Remember, this is the 2019 version of the book and so, films like “Joker” will not be featured in this book and any film that came out in 2020 (and if we get there, in 2021). So strap in and if you have your own suggestions then don’t hesitate to email me using the address in my bio. Let’s get on with it then.

Visual Filmmaking in Russell Crowe's 'Unhinged'
A man sits sweating in his pickup truck in a suburban neighborhood. Distress is written across his face and a jumpy camera helps communicate his jumbled mental state. The man pops some unnamed pills from prescription bottles and begins to settle down. The man pulls out a match and lights it with his thumb. We get a shot of a suburban home with a for sale sign in the yard. Just from the visual cues alone you know where we are and what is about to happen.

Movie Review: 'The Twentieth Century'
The Twentieth Century is a truly bizarre movie. Set in Canada at the turn of the century that gives the movie its name, The Twentieth Century follows protagonist William Lyon Mackenzie King (Dan Beirne) on his roundabout journey to become Canadian Prime Minister. That’s an accurate thumbnail sketch of the plot of The Twentieth Century but it most certainly does not prepare you for the crazy you will encounter in this brilliantly bizarre movie.

Movie Review: 'Vanguard' Shows Jackie Chan's Still Got Some Action Star Left
Vanguard is Jackie Chan’s long awaited reunion with his Rumble in the Bronx and Super-Cop director Stanley Tong. The two made monster hits back in the nineties before Jackie found success in the United States with the Rush Hour movies. Jackie has since seen his American fortunes dwindle as he has advanced in age. A return to Tong and a well funded Chinese production is quite a smart and, it turns out, successful move.
