Genre Grandeur: Romeo + Juliet (1996)

The theme of the Genre Grandeur for the month of June over at the wonderful Movierob was high school/teen romance movies. For my choice, I thought what better than the ultimate teenage romance story – that of Romeo and Juliet, as originally written by William Shakespeare in approximately the year 1595, but brought to life […]

Genre Grandeur: Solaris (1972)

I chose to watch Solaris (1972), a Tarkovsky classic. Check out the rest of the films for September’s Genre […]

There have been lots of amazing reviews […]
