Sherlock Holmes’ little sister still has some spunk in her. The first two “Enola Holmes” were charming and delightful additions to the whodunit genre, and they were both based off of Nancy […]
Enola Holmes 3
Enola Holmes 1 and 2
To prepare you for number three, here’s how the first two delighted me. I’ve made a big mistake of not reviewing the first two “Enola Holmes” movies on Netflix, but with the […]

Rose of Nevada
The wind and tide is with Mark Jenkin’s latest entry. “Rose of Nevada” is Mark Jenkin’s first film since “Enys Men,” which I wasn’t a big fan of because I didn’t really […]
