Checked out the remake of the Goldie Hawn/Kurt Russel romantic comedy from the 80s Overboard. That was the one where Hawn, a rich spoiled heiress, falls off her yacht and gets amnesia. Poor working man Russel convinces her that she’s … Continue reading
Rented the relatively new Japanese anime film Mary and the Witch’s Flower. This is a film produced by employees who left Studio Ghibli when Hayao Miyazaki retired (before un-retiring) so it has a pedigree of talent behind it. Unfortunately, it … Continue reading
