There are a surprising number of ‘holiday’ films celebrating anniversaries this year, so much so, we had to compile them into a post and highlight some of our favorites. If you haven’t seen some of these films…
All in Film
The holiday season is upon us, and that means binge watching all of our favorite holiday films, right? Well, we, the team at The Film Rewind, just couldn’t quite land on a singular ‘holiday’ film, so we decided to go in a different direction entirely…
Beauty and the Beast is one of those Disney movies that holds a special place in my heart, as the first Disney animated film released in my lifetime. I spent my first couple of years adoring the film, but, as I tended to do with films in my youth, I suddenly developed an intense fear of the Beast…
For those of you who have been living in resistance to the rise of the digital streaming service era, this week marked the second anniversary of the launch of Disney+, aka Disney’s very own (and rather limited) streaming platform. In celebration of their two-year anniversary…
There is no denying the campiness of many of the classic Universal ‘Monster Movies,’ and Dracula (1931, dir. Tod Browning) is certainly no exception. (Don’t even get me started on the possums and armadillos…) I was probably first introduced to this film sometime in elementary school…
It’s that wonderfully spooky time of year, and while I love watching some Hocus Pocus or wandering through a corn maze, I’m always reminded that I’m a ‘fraidy-cat' at heart. Today, I present to you my ultimate tale of cowardice, as I relate to you my personal history with the Child’s Play franchise…
It is officially ‘Spooky Season!’ and I don’t know about you, but I am so ready for all the things that come with this time of year. Such as, the pumpkin carving, autumnal decorations, and, of course, all the horror and Halloween-themed films that I can cram into a measly 31 days…
As the old ditty goes, “It’s the MIBs..here come the MIBs… here come the Men in Black.” And indeed, here they do come…
Before this, my first viewing of Hold That Ghost, my experience with the comic team of Abbott and Costello began and ended with the classic “Who’s on First” routine. While I always loved the speed and cleverness of the sketch…
It is August, the sun has been shining, the birds have been singing, and all the “Spirit of Halloween” stores have begun popping up everywhere…
Ever since Sarah celebrated her 30th birthday by sharing the 30 movies that have been the most influential to her, I’ve been aching to piggyback off of this idea and make a list myself…
Today marks the second anniversary of the launch of our blog! We, the team at The Film Rewind, cannot believe that two years have already passed!? Particularly with the past year having felt like such a whirlwind…
Nothing is quite as synonymous with ‘summer’ quite like ye olde road trip. With summer finally here, the widespread availability of vaccines, and social distancing restrictions relaxing…
It’s been a few years since watching the film, but whenever I think of The Man Who Knew Too Much, I always first think of the infuriating scene where James Stewart’s Dr. Ben McKenna sedates Doris Day’s Jo before revealing to her that their son has been abducted…
Ugh. Been donkeys since writing post for blog. Bad reviewer. No consistency. No future. Had no idea what to expect when committing to reading BJD for Film Club. Most surprised to learn that it was a British story, as knew that Renee Zellweger was Bridget in film…
Time flies when you are having ‘fun…’ and with all the things that have been going on this month, April has turned into a bit of a blog post dry spell…
It is hard for us, here at The Film Rewind, to fathom that a certain British pop culture ‘icon’ is turning 25 years old! We are, of course, talking about…
