The magic of film is a mysteriously powerful force that not only invites temporary escapism in a theater, but can, with certain movies, offer a long-lasting escape within ourselves.

Like this.
That, ladies and gentlemen, is any Tuesday after a long holiday weekend.
Happy Monday
Modern foreign policy, spanning several American presidents and allied world leaders, has been a frustrating headache with no transcendent solutions. The problems are momentous, urgent and seemingly never-ending and amorphous. People continue to wait for a great leader to take charge with a master chess champion-level brilliance who also possesses an oratorical prowess for the ages.
It may be time to stop looking to the future and instead look into the smoky rearview mirror of history…
Darkest Hour arrives in theaters in January of 2018. And after its recent premiere at the Telluride Film Festival, the Hollywood Reporter gave a glowing review.
“A crowd-pleasing account of Churchill’s rising to the occasion.”

“…rising to the occasion.” A phrase, and wish, that people all around the world are demanding from their leaders.
Have a Better Week Than Last Week.
