(Allison Skornick-Rose) 4/27/2021 1:17 PM EST In the United States, there is a whole group of retired people who buy RVs and travel around the country to "see the sights". Some may call them "wanderers". Conversely, there are those who live out of their cars and vans, traveling the country moving from one seasonal job to another. They tend to be labeled a...

(Allison Skornick-Rose) 4/1/2021 10:11 PM EST I'm not sure about younger generations, but when someone says the words, "The Greatest Show on Earth" those of a certain age automatically think of Ringling Bros.-Barnum & Bailey Circus. The traveling show, which was created in 1919 after the merger of two smaller traveling circuses, boasted everything from trapeze artists and c... Read More |
(Allison Skornick-Rose) 3/29/2021 6:00 PM EST How often does a filmmaker get to completely remake one of their films thirty-three years after the original version came out? The answer is never. If a remake is planned, it generally includes a new, updated version of the original film with a different director and soundtrack (to utilize more modern songs) in hopes of appealing to you...

(Allison Skornick-Rose) 3/29/2021 2:53 PM EST How well do we really know the people who are closest to us? What deep, dark secrets dwell inside locked doors somewhere in the back recesses of a person's mind? What if you discovered one of your parents was gay? Or if one of your siblings had a drinking problem? Or what if your husband, that you had known for seventeen years was r... Read More |
 
(Allison Skornick-Rose) 3/29/2021 8:55 AM EST Could someone please explain to me the desire to take every video game and make it into a movie (generally a whole franchise)? How about explaining Paul W.S. Anderson (Mortal Kombat) and Milla Jovovich's (Kuffs) obsession with being the people behind these types of movies? I get it…The Resident Evil films were well-received (... Read More |
(Allison Skornick-Rose) 3/25/2021 1:17 PM EST In 2016 author Paulette Jiles (Lighthouse Island) published a western-themed novel called News of the World. The book became a finalist for the National Book Award for fiction. Shortly after a bidding war ensued, with Fox 2000 Pictures obtaining the movie rights in 2017. However, after Disney acquired Fox, the film was mo... Read More |
(Allison Skornick-Rose) 3/23/2021 4:54 PM EST If you could possibly create a biologically perfect child, would you? If there were so many advances in technology that a couple could rule out heart defects, major diseases, etc., and choose eye color, hair color, intelligence, and even the baby's gender, do you think that technology should be utilized? What if it wasn't 100% foolproof? &nbs... Read More |
(Allison Skornick-Rose) 3/13/2021 8:13 PM EST In the past few years, the country has been flooded with stories from individuals who have been sexually harassed and/or assaulted. The #metoo movement has taken over social media and celebrities along with the average American have been sharing their stories with much less fear of victim shaming. However, this country wasn't always... Read More |
(Allison Skornick-Rose) 3/10/2021 11:44 AM EST Animation's history can be traced back to the old stone age 3.3 million years ago when cave dwellers would depict people and animals in motion in drawings on cave walls. In the 1600s, shadow play and the magic lantern would spark the imaginations of young and old alike, but it would be another 200 years before the invention of the stroboscopi... Read More |
(Allison Skornick-Rose) 3/2/2021 9:41 PM EST Hypothetically, what if you found yourself on a small, twin-engine plane without a pilot. Would you know what to do? Would you be able to fly the plane? What if you only had a few, informal lessons? Would it be enough? That is exactly the dilemma Sara (Allison Williams; Get Out) is faced with in the Mikael Marcimain (Call G... Read More |
