Princess Bride Sometimes there are movies that stand the test of time more than any other, whether it be because they connect with the audience stronger than your average churned out piece of cinema or perhaps because the style or the approach if you will was one that was majorly different than anything that had […]
Private Parts The meteoric rise to fame that Howard Stern went through to become one of THE most popular figures in the history of modern pop culture (or as he calls it, The King Of All Media) was one built on a wave of pure anti establishment, rebellious attitude, challenging the old ways and mores […]
Prizzi’s Honor A film whose premise was curiously redone in recent years with the atrocious Mr. And Mrs. Smith (two contract killers fall in love, get married, then learn that they’ve been assigned to kill each other), this 1985 release, one of the last from legendary director John Huston and showered with Oscar love at […]
