Also checked out the curious men-in-hats neo noire with the curious title Motherless Brooklyn. This is a movie made by and for Edward Norton who directed, adapted, and stars in it. It’s based on a novel of the same name … Continue reading

Also watched the Netflix original sci-fi flick I Am Mother. This is a not particularly original premise done moderately well on a pretty low budget (that looks like it has a higher budget). So the flick takes place in … Continue reading
