My Review of "Dora and the Lost City of Gold"
Dora and the Lost City of Gold came out quietly in theatres in 2019. It's a big surprise to me that there was little fanfare for this movie as Dora The Explorer was a very popular cartoon for kids back in the day. Now she's grown up and still exploring. I think those that grew up watching that show might want to check this movie out.

My Review of "Schulz Saves America"
Schulz Saves America is a comedy series by Andrew Schulz that came out in 2020. The material that is talked about is very much like a comedy newscast much like the daily show or other shows of that nature. His episodes are however much shorter and are focused on specific topics for each episode.

Pixar's SparkShorts | Disney+ Review
I think I'm now at a moment in my life where I now watch TV and movies solely on streaming platforms as opposed to on actual TV channels. From Netflix to Disney+, I spend a lot of my time browsing the many shelves of mainstream and indie choices of movies and shows at my disposal.

My Review of "Life in a Year"
Life in a Year is a movie that I could see being targeted directly to adolescents so obviously I'm not going to get it. Bare with me as I explain why I think it hit the right notes but also fails in my eyes. I can see how a lot of people may enjoy this movie and it does the right things to cater to its target audience. Movies aren't supposed to be real they're supposed to give us ranges of emotions and immerse us into their worlds.

Gone with the Wind
Before diving into the review, I want to acknowledge that I understand that this book has stirred extreme controversy for the outdated views and practices that are referenced in the pages. However, I would be remiss to leave out what is considered to be one of the greatest American novels as I begin my journey of reading more classic works.

Book Review: "Love and Exile" by Isaac Bashevis Singer
“Love and Exile” by Isaac Bashevis Singer is an autobiography of one of the century’s greatest writers growing up in one of the most turbulent times in history. Isaac Bashevis Singer tells his story about being in Poland and then America, the language of the book is absolutely incredible with its deep understanding of culture, history and the aesthetics of the human being. From start to finish, this is one of the best books by Isaac Bashevis Singer I have ever read and even though it is one of the longest, I also think that it is one of his most detailed attempts at explaining all of his other books. When it comes to Bashevis Singer’s works, there is normally characters that are troubled and hurt in some way, shape or form by their own histories, haunted and looking for a new present. This is also true of Isaac Bashevis Singer himself as he wanders the earth looking for purpose and searching for meaning throughout recent history and all its war.

My Review of "Stage Mother"
Stage Mother is a feel good movie that game out in 2020. It's currently streaming on Amazon Prime for free as I write this. I wasn't too sure what to make of this movie but in the end I was delighted by a heartwarming story with an upbeat perspective. It's got a story that we kind of need nowadays.
