Review: Seven Psychopaths
If Seven Psychopaths is one thing; it’s violent. If the film is two things; it’s violent and laugh-out-loud funny. Now, if it’s THREE things – you get the point – but I’ll say it’s self-aware, anyway. Seven Psychopaths is all

To Rome With Love: I’d Rather be in Paris

Take This Waltz – I Respectfully Decline
I really wanted to like Take This Waltz. Judging by the trailer I saw months ago, the film had everything going for it; a great cast, beautiful cinematography, and an intriguing story about love (or the lack thereof). But Sarah
