Food, Inc.

January 25, 2010 by Margot

It's January again (wait, let me check...yep it's still January), & my movie mind starts to wander toward documentaries.  It happens every year.  Whether it is the exposure documentaries get this time of year with the lead up to all of the big awards shows or it is a form of movie new … [Read more...]

The Duchess

January 20, 2009 by Margot

My hubby & I sat down to watch our latest Netflix pick, The Duchess, & the one question that went through my mind was whether or not Keira Knightley was ready to carry a film?  Incidentally, the only reason my husband agreed to actually sit down & watch this movie … [Read more...]

The Worst Movie….EVER!!!

November 10, 2008 by Margot

So, I know I'm supposed to be giving you movie recommendations, but let's just consider this a Public Service Announcement.  Like one of those "The more you know" ads on NBC with all of those celebrities.  Except this isn't a major TV network & I'm no celebrity.  So, … [Read more...]

On DVD Now: Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day

October 21, 2008 by Jen

This movie was released theatrically back in March, 2008. I had heard some good buzz and really wanted to see it at the time, but it had a somewhat limited release and I wasn't able to catch it in theatres here in Calgary. So I was eagerly looking forward to its recent DVD release, and I sure wasn't … [Read more...]

Two Movies & A TV Show

February 5, 2008 by Margot

So, I did a lot of movie watching this week.  The joys of having Grandma & Grandpa in to visit (i.e. free babysitting...yay).  And just as a little aside, I even got out to a 2-day seminar on Sports Nutrition up at UCLA (damn continuing education units).  Which, btw, was quite … [Read more...]
