Do the Right Thing The first review that I found was in the New York Times and was written by Vincent Canby. Canby starts his review by quoting Mr. Senor Love Daddy who is “doing the nasty to your ears, playing the platters that matter” and explains that this movie takes place on the hottest day of the summer. “Do the Right Thing” stars Spike Lee, who is able to direct and star in this movie “without compromising his position as an aggressively outspoken advocate of black rights.” The whole story

fucking six-year-old. ’Cause to be honest, it is a bit o’ shit.” This soliloquy is quite insightful, and may make the viewer acknowledge things that they would not admit to thinking about.

the 2017 Sundance Film Festival American Paradise tells the true story of a series of robberies within Trumps America. Director Joe Talbot takes a dark comedic approach to the film, starting with long shots of awkward scene featuring three black men.

Life is Beautiful is a film that tells the story of an Italian man, Guido, and his journey to find love, and later, his efforts to help his family when they are taken to a Nazi concentration camp. After its release in 1997, Life is Beautiful received critical acclaim, but many were troubled about how it portrayed the Holocaust. The trouble arises when questions such as who gets to be the storyteller, whose interpretation of events is correct, and is there ever a right answer when it comes to art

When I was a kid one Sunday afternoon I sat down in front of the TV and watched Brian's Song. Brian's Song was based on the true story of Brian Piccolo and Gale Sayers and starred James Caan and Billy Dee Williams. Brian's Song is a tearjerker, and I cried, but I was also uplifted by the many levels of strengths and weaknesses of the human condition that Brian Piccolo and Gale Sayers experienced. On December 29th, 2016 I plan on sitting down in front of my TV with my family and watching Gleason

During this month of April one of the founding pioneers of modern Hollywood, Steven Spielberg will be coming to Roswell High School to film a documentary about this school. "I could not be more excited for Roswell to be on the silver screen, this is really going to make Roswell a household name that is not about Aliens," said Sophomore Mac Brazle Spielberg chose Roswell because it is "the best school in the United States, I wish I had gone here as a boy."
