THE TRAGEDY OF MACBETH Interviews – Denzel Washington, Corey Hawkins, Alex Hassell

THE TRAGEDY OF MACBETH Interviews – Denzel Washington, Corey Hawkins, Alex Hassell You can’t go wrong with Joel Coen directing Denzel Washington and Frances McDormand in one of Shakespeare’s tragedies. I sat down with Washington, Corey Hawkins, and Alex Hassell to talk about The Tragedy of Macbeth. Hear how they describe Coen’s directing style, performing Shakespeare for the camera versus on stage, what Shakespeare they’d tackle next and more. I would love it if you click SUBSCRIBE on my channel for more reviews and interviews. It helps more people find my reviews and interviews!Read More →

Movie Review: THE TRAGEDY OF MACBETH

THE TRAGEDY OF MACBETH Writer/Director: Joel CoenStarring: Denzel Washington, Frances McDormand, Kathryn Hunter, Alex Hassel, Brendan Gleeson, Bertie Carvel, Corey Hawkins There is no shortage of Shakespeare adaptations out there, but Joel Coen has directed a sharp take on the Scottish play with The Tragedy of Macbeth. Denzel Washington leads the film as the title character, Macbeth. He’s visited by three witches, all played by the great Kathryn Hunter, who convince him he should be the king of Scotland. As they say, “Fair is foul and foul is fair” With the help of his wife, Lady Macbeth, he believes their prophecies and kills King DuncanRead More →

Movie Review: THE LITTLE THINGS

THE LITTLE THINGS Director: John Lee HancockStarring: Denzel Washington, Rami Malek, Jared Leto, Natalie Morales, Chris Bauer, Jason James Richter, Terry Kinney When Denzel Washington, Rami Malek, and Jared Leto all star you the same movie, you hope for a heavy film that packs a punch. Their new film The Little Things will have you on edge. Grisly true crime is all the rage right now, and while The Little Things isn’t based on a true story, it will scratch that itch for those waiting on a new season of your favorite podcast. Denzel Washington suits up as Sheriff Joe Deacon, who heads back toRead More →

THE 89th ACADEMY AWARDS – THE NOMINATIONS

THE 89th ACADEMY AWARDS – THE NOMINATIONS Here we go! This year’s Oscar nominations were announced this morning, and no one was surprised to hear La La Land lead the pack. The Academy loves movies about actors and Hollywood, and Damien Chazelle’s film is a tribute to the old MGM musicals. I posted my predictions yesterday and gave La La Land 14 nominations. My prediction was right on as it has tied Titanic and All About Eve with the most nominations. Coming in next is Moonlight and Arrival with 8 nominations and Manchester By the Sea with 6. If I had my choice, I’d giveRead More →

2016: A YEAR IN REVIEW

2016: A YEAR IN REVIEW 2016 was not the best year when it came to the selections at your local movie theater. The spring brought out it the usual duds, the summer season was wildly disappointing, and the fall had a few great films to try and redeem itself. Big blockbuster movies like X-Men: Apocalypse, Batman v Superman, Suicide Squad, and The Divergent Series: Allegiant were not greeted with the same sort of enthusiasm upon it’s release. All four were disappointing in some regard. We also saw reboots and revivals of franchises with Ghostbusters, Jason Bourne, Bridget Jones’s Baby,and Blair Witch; some of them wereRead More →

Movie Review: FENCES

FENCES Director: Denzel Washington Starring: Denzel Washington, Viola Davis, Mykelti Williamson, Stephen Henderson, Jovan Adepo, Russell Hornsby, Saniyya Sidney In 2010 Denzel Washington and Viola Davis starred in the Broadway revival of August Wilson’s play, Fences. They both went on to win the Tony Award for their performances as a married couple in 1950s Pittsburgh. Washington plays Troy Maxson, a former baseball player who was too old to go professional and now works as a trash collector. Viola Davis gives another knockout performance as his wife, Rose. While Troy is out at work, she is the typical housewife who makes sure there is food onRead More →
