(Allison Skornick-Rose) 10/9/2018 10:31 AM EDT Who can forget those awkward teenage years when everything seemed catastrophic including one little pimple that may be here today, gone tomorrow?

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 10/1/2018 4:09 PM EDT An actress emerges from her shell…a new director proves his worth…a movie that entices all of the senses and emotions in one's body… A Star is Born and the fourth iteration of the movie may be the best one to date.

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 9/25/2018 11:46 AM EDT In 1991 Bret Easton Ellis brought us his novel about a Wall Street serial killer called American Psycho.

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 9/25/2018 10:04 AM EDT The Punisher made his debut in Marvel Comics The Amazing Spider-Man #129 Comic Book in 1974.
