Live from New York, it’s the funny and chaotic preparation for the taping of the first SNL episode. Jason Reitman’s next movie “Saturday Night” retells how the very first episode of “Saturday […]
Saturday Night
Lee
Kate Winslet delivers as a woman who learns about the horrors of war. “Lee” is a war drama based on the life of Lee Miller (1907-1977), the American photographer and photojournalist, who […]

Wildcat
A weak biopic on the author Flannery 0’Connor. “Wildcat” is probably the weakest film I saw at the Boulder International Film Festival (BIFF) this year. My cousins (in their early 60s) and […]
