A BIG BOLD BEAUTIFUL JOURNEY

September 19, 2025September 18, 2025 Michael J. Casey

A Big Bold Beautiful Journey is not for me. There’s part of me that wishes it was, and another part of me that’s glad it’s not. That’s not to say Journey is for no one. Watch this movie for 10 … Continue reading A BIG BOLD BEAUTIFUL JOURNEY

20TH CENTURY WOMEN

January 19, 2017June 2, 2021 Michael J. Casey

A young man sees the world from a specific point of view. Though women may surround him—women who raise him, teach him, love him, and confuse him—he will never be able to fully see the world through their eyes. He … Continue reading 20TH CENTURY WOMEN

THE BLING RING

June 25, 2013December 10, 2021 Michael J. Casey

From the opening guitar riff of Sleigh Bells’ “Crown on the Ground,” The Bling Ring announces exactly what kind of movie it is going to deliver: loud music (that will no doubt comment on the action), characters walking in slow motion to … Continue reading THE BLING RING
