October was a busy movie-watching month that was basically bookended with two local film festivals; first was Beyond Fest, which started at the end of September and continued a little over a week into October, and then AFI Fest took place in Hollywood this past weekend (which included Greta Gerwig introducing a screening of A…
Like August, September continued a bit of the music and movies trend. Outside of actual cinema, I did go to a couple of other concerts, including Beyoncé (fingers crossed there will be a concert film of her Renaissance World Tour coming sooner than later). An event actually related to film that I had the pleasure…
I’m going to quote some Taylor Swift lyrics, to sum up this past month to start off this post and just say August slipped away into a moment in time. I’m still coasting on the high from the beginning of August when I saw Taylor Swift in concert for the first time for her Eras…
July was a great month at the movies, with the most-anticipated movie event of the year “Barbenheimer” in the middle of the month. I didn’t see Barbie and Oppenheimer on the same day, but I did watch the movies within 24 hours of each other on back-to-back days, so I basically still got in on…
I saw a good mix of movies in June, from new releases to old favorites and other films in between. However, I’m keeping this post brief and won’t go into detail about some of this past month’s highlights, as I’m about to head off to spend the day at Disneyland! So without further ado, here’s…
May was another satisfying month of movie-watching both in theaters and at home, plus one of my favorites that I had the great pleasure of seeing at the majestic Walt Disney Concert Hall: Psycho, with the orchestra playing Bernard Herrmann’s iconic score live. Other than that, one of my favorite theater trips this past month…
It’s been about a month now since the conclusion of this year’s edition of the TCM Classic Film Festival. It was another wonderful, unique experience that I’ve finally put aside some time to write about. As I did with the previous times I attended the in-person fest, I’m recapping everything from my point of view…
As usual, I mostly focused my attention in April on the four-day TCM Classic Film Festival. It was another memorable time watching movies with fellow classic film fans, and I plan to post a full recap of my experience in the coming days. You can probably figure out what I saw during the fest, or…
I didn’t watch as many movies in March as I usually do in a month. That’s partially due to both of my sisters visiting me for a week to celebrate both the Oscars and my birthday. Though for my actual birthday (which they weren’t in town for yet), I spent it watching Mon oncle at…
The TCM Classic Film Festival begins in just two weeks, and my anticipation continues to grow as we get closer. While I have the great luxury of going to repertory screenings all the time living in Los Angeles, there’s still nothing like watching movies at TCMFF, and I’m excited to attend the beloved fest for…
