Tuesday is a fascinating movie. It could have been quite good if it weren’t so full of so many unforced errors. Just a swath of “WTF are you guys even doing” content. Things that maybe worked in print but just … Continue reading
Treasure is a drama starring Lena Dunham as the daughter of a Polish Jew (Stephen Fry) who survived the death camps in WW2. Dunham’s character has brought her papa back to Poland so she can learn about all the things … Continue reading
