THE BOOK OF CLARENCE is a Fresh and Entertaining Take on the Jesus Story

From writer/director Jeymes Samuel, musical artist and filmmaker behind The Harder They Fall, comes a comedic and satirical take on the Gospel stories of Jesus Christ. Going into this film, I wasn’t sure what to expect. The trailers made the film seem like an edgy satire on the concept of religion, particularly Christianity. This movie… Continue reading THE BOOK OF CLARENCE is a Fresh and Entertaining Take on the Jesus Story

The Night They Came Home

I am a fan of Westerns and glad to see the genre is alive and well for storytelling about events, some better known than others. Many stories often go untold, and if they are told, they have a limited perspective. I need to catch up on reading about who Rufus Buck is and the gang… Continue reading The Night They Came Home

The Book of Clarence

El Libro de Clarence de Jeymes Samuel (They Die by Dawn, The Harder They Fall), es cualquier cosa menos una historia de la Biblia tal como la has conocido hasta la fecha. Es su visión sobre un personaje, Clarence (LaKeith Stanfield), que quiere más de lo que tiene y por lo que es reconocido. La… Continue reading The Book of Clarence

The reincarnation of the beloved 2004 film into a fresh adaptation delivers moments of excitement and stiltedness, ultimately presenting an intelligent take on the original material. The film… Continue reading ‘Mean Girls’ Musical Film: A Double-Edged Ode to High School
