Stardust: A Book and Movie Comparison

I had a long flight to China a few months ago (pre-pandemic), and of course had plenty of movies on my to-watch list. I’ve been back and forth from China many times, so I have the 11 hour flight down to a science, from my seated yoga to memorizing the lighting patterns.  I started my… Read More

The Favourite: A Feminist Movie Review

I don’t know why I have a habit of watching critically-acclaimed films on the tiny screens of airplanes, the roar of turbines and background chatter mixing with award-winning dialogue, but that’s what I do. That’s how I fell in love with the soundtrack to Moonrise Kingdom and how I first met Charlize Theron’s Furiosa in… Read More

A Quiet Place: A Feminist Movie Review

Get ready for Part Two (which premieres May 15) by reliving the glory of the first A Quiet Place. John Krasinski is really setting the bar high for himself: A Quiet Place is so good I’m confused how a sequel could possibly top the first one! That being said, the first movie leaves a lot… Read More

Coco: A Feminist Movie Review

I know I’m late to the party on Coco, but since I stopped teaching, I don’t see children’s movies as soon as they come out. It remains to be seen if I’ll ever see Frozen 2. I know some of you are shouting at the screen, they’re not just for kids! (And some of you… Read More

Crazy Rich Asians: The Movie

As promised, I am reviewing the Crazy Rich Asians movie this week. My review of the book posted last week, you can check it out here. As I said in that review, the book is a satire of Asian culture, while the movie had a different goal. The movie is more of a classic romcom,… Read More
