In the late 70’s and 80’s, WWF (now WWE) superstar Andre Roussimoff, better known as Andre the Giant, was a professional wrestling superstar. Many people already knew that the story-lines in TV wrestling were fake and some people had a hard time accepting the truth that Andre stood seven feet tall and weighed 500 pounds, a behemoth of a man.
Andre was nicknamed “The Eighth Wonder of the World” and a “Larger than Life Existence”. HBO’s Andre the Giant documentary is a larger than life documentary that does a good job of showing the career, influence, ups-and-downs that Andre dealt with in his inspirational lifetime.

Friendship, Childhood, and Guns in the Post-Columbine Era

Director Vincent Grashaw Discuss And Then I Go
How far would you go for your best friend? If they were the only person in the world to which you felt connected, would you let anything jeopardize that bond? Would you sacrifice your own life to make them happy? Director Vincent Grashaw uses the United States cultural epidemic of school shootings to examine the roots and depths of friendship in his latest project, And Then I Go (2017). But he was quick to point out that this film is not about topical tragedies; rather, mass shootings by disaffected young boys are treated as manifestations of a broken society.

The Cloverfield movie series is such an interesting blank check franchise because there’s no shortage of good ideas by making this an anthology series as it gives more freedom for whatever stories that the filmmakers want to tell. I would have been fine if this was one movie about a monster attacking a city but they decided to expand on this and made a great followup in 10 Cloverfield Lane.

Nile Fortner‘s back with a new Retro Review, and talking about James Cameron’s 1984 classic film, The Terminator.
