    Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me

    ★★★★½

    The prequel/sequel to the popular TV series. Who killed Laura Palmer?

    Yes, an answer was presented within the narrative of series. Now we ask why and how. This is more of a time and space circular connuium of the horror film, science fiction and domestic melodrama. Most of the players seem as confused as the audience. Fortunately, it adds to the surrealism. Sheryl Lee gives an excellent performance ! It plays as an insane commentary of tent pole movie production.


    Was anyone prepared for a prequel to be connected to the last episode of of season 2?

  • Deathtrap

    Deathtrap

    ★★★★

    Two playwrights embark on a collaboration with killer results.
    A Fun and diverting murder mystery that keeps changing course. The whole story is literally rewritten in front of the audience.

    Performances are also a treat. While Dyan Cannon got a lot critical teasing, shes actually quite good. She plays it well as an accomplice with regret. Caine plays it as continuation from SLUETH. Best of all is Christopher Reeve going all in. He cared more about his profession than his super hero reputation!

    Worth watching!

    It begins in an airplane with a group of vacationers talking about how excited and anxious they about going to a new resort called “The Portals of Eden”. The cast includes a smothering flirt played by Lloyd Bridges, a willing Cloris Leachman, a cagey Ed Asner, an exhausted Robert Reed, and Donna Mills as a newlywed among others. It’s all very mysterious as the crew…

    The Great Escape

    ★★★★★

    76 prisoners tunnel their way to escape a POW camp but only a few live to tell the tale.

    THE GREAT ESCAPE is one of the most exciting movies of the 1960s. It’s also one of the great ensemble casts of any kind. The various actors and character that they portray have specific talents, shared screen time and genuine interactions. The movie and the story is a team effort. It shows in the best way. To top it off, many…
