Because a film can change your life...
Uggh, I've been so terrible with updates! I'm getting back into the swing now folks, and will be updating a lot more often going forward I promise. I've got a pile of films up to my ears to get through and review, both old and new, so hopefully there's some rich opinions and strong viewpoints on the way for you to all disagree with me on! Glad you've kept reading.

The Kids Are All Right (2010)     
<Spoiler warning - this review gives away a plot twist!> The fact that this film has both polarised the gay community and shocked the straight world with its incredibly normal look at lesbian family life, means it is a must-watch not just for lesbians but for everyone. Is this our Brokeback Mountain? Maybe not, but it's worth the ticket price for Annette Bening's masterful performance alone. Leave your pre-conceptions at the door, have an open mind, and then love it or hate it.
I Can't Think Straight (2007)   
If coming out narratives starring beautiful women make a film good enough to float your boat then you won't go wrong here, but I needed a bit more of pretty much everything to really get excited about this. Pretty to look at with some worthy moments, but not a great film.
Classic Television
I've been so impressed lately with Alyson Hannigan's performance on How I Met Your Mother, I think maybe it is time to take a deep breath and look back fondly on where she "came from" in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, despite the craptastic ending to the series.
