(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 7/5/2017 2:22 PM EDT Robin Williams (Good Morning Vietnam) was a comedic genius who left us all too soon. He was truly one of a kind.

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 6/28/2017 8:56 AM EDT They say money is the root of all evil. Some people will do anything to get it while some of those who have it will do anything to keep it (or get more). It can certainly make life easier in some ways but harder in others and it is the rare individual who is left untouched by its appeal. Writer Josep Ciutat and Director Martin Rosete ex... Read More |
(Nathan M Rose) 6/26/2017 4:44 PM EDT In 2011, Twentieth Century Fox re-imagined the very popular 1968 -1974 films and television series called The Planet of The Apes.
