More New Films..


Bombshell 2019   is a biographical drama film with an amazing which stars Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman and Margot Robbie.. and is based on the Fox News sexually harassment scandal of Roger Ailes.. with Kidman as Gretchen Carlson, Theron as Megyn Kelly and Robbie as Kayla Pospisil (who represents many unnamed women tormented by Ailes).. I loved this film .. especially as it seemed realistic with literally everyone turning on one another drawing lines in the sand so as to keep their jobs.. sadly this is exactly how corporate America seems to work.. you will do almost anything to get ahead and yet if you speak out against anything or stand up and be accounted for ..you are labeled .. blackballed.. etc.  Outstanding film.. so sad that the true number of improprieties that Roger Ailes committed will never truly be known.. Roger Ailes is now dead.. but so many men like him are still out there.. Luckily however some have been brought or are facing justice.. A must see film..  Roger Ailes  Movie Trailer


Lucy in the Sky   Release Date 10-4-19..  Trailer   -  A female astronaut returns to Earth after a long mission and begins an affair with another astronaut. Eventually things begin to spiral and she loses touch as she becomes obsessed.. The film stars Natalie Portman and is loosely based on a true story.. Loved it.. Portman was amazing as a woman obsessed with being an astronaut.. which I could understand  ..however when she emotionally falls apart it was difficult to watch.. but after having some of those moments myself.. where obsession clouds your rational thinking.. and you spiral out of control.. well it was painfully realistic.. LOVED IT..


Richard Jewell 2019  is a  biographical drama produced and directed by Clint Eastwood.. LOVED IT.. The film is based on the 1997 Vanity Fair article "American Nightmare.. The Ballad of Richard Jewell.. " and the 2019 book  The Suspect by Kent Alexander and Kevin Salwen.. Amazingly this is a truly touching film.. with an outstanding cast.. The film depicts the Centennial Olympic Park bombing and its aftermath in 1996.. Richard Jewell was the security officer that found the backpack reported it to the authorities and after trying to clear as much people as he could along with others was a hero.. however later the media reported him as being investigated as a suspect and wrongly accused him along with authorities.. which was traumatic and disruptive to both him and his mother's life .. and even though he was eventually found not guilty .. the damage to his life and name was horrific.. Richard Jewell died at age 44 .. however his mom is still living and Kathy Bates did an amazing job playing her in the film.. at least his poor mother can now feel uplifted that this film shows just how amazing her son truly was in saving so many lives.. I loved the film.. Jewell was just simply an ordinary man living an ordinary life.. that loved law enforcement and took his job seriously which sadly was the reason he became an easy target.. however his diligence was how the bomb was discovered and how lives were saved..Movie Trailer
