(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 12/6/2016 11:35 PM EDT They say people are a product of their environment, although I'm not exactly sure who "they" are. However, for one Boston area neighborhood, it seems to be a true statement. Charlestown, a lower income area, raises a large number of criminals, especially bank robbers. For Doug MacRay (Ben Affleck; The Account... Read More |
(Jennifer Broderick) 12/6/2016 1:43 PM EDT If you had to abandon your city because of an outbreak of a zombie vampire apocalypse, leave everything behind, and put every fiber of your being into the one person who might be able to save the world, who would it be?

(Allison Hazlett-Rose) 12/6/2016 10:37 AM EDT It's hard to believe it's been 25 years since we met Henry Hill on the big screen and instantly fell in love. I'm not sure why we became so fascinated, but maybe it had something to do with guns, violence and a bunch of wise guys who thought they ruled the streets. Whatever the reason, we were captivated by the portrayal of the ma... Read More |
