With the nation’s Presidential Election wrapping up and Steven Spielberg’s LINCOLN soon to be released (not to be confused with last summer’s ABRAHAM LINCOLN VAMPIRE HUNTER), I got to thinking about some of the great President’s in movie history. I have no doubt that Daniel Day Lewis will earn another Oscar nomination for his portrayal [...]
If you’ve been following the film trend at all the last couple of years, then you know that the new thing is for the older acting generation to take on action films (THE EXPENDABLES), continue with their spy careers (RED) and find love and romance in remote locations (THE BEST EXOTIV MARIGOLD HOTEL), so it’s [...]
