Where has the time gone? … It has been ages since we last posted. What can we say other than life has been complicated of late? Between working…
All in Musicals
I know you are probably wondering where our A League of Their Own (1992, dir. Penny Marshall) reviews are and why we, the Team at The Film Rewind, have been so quiet and hardly posting at all this month…
What a surprise: another Film Club pick that was previously a blind spot in my film viewing! That I hadn’t seen Funny Face before this week was most appalling because my favorite genre of film is the musical and two of my favorite movie stars are Fred Astaire and Audrey Hepburn…
If you are like me, and eagerly counting down the days until spring officially arrives, then you are in good company this year. Seriously, I have never been so over winter in my life! All the snow, ice, slush, freezing rain, sleet, and bitterly cold temperatures can end any time, and I will be perfectly fine…
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…
The story of ‘Cinderella’ has been told and retold for centuries in various styles and media. The plot itself has become one of a handful of basic story types that the majority of narratives follow…
Is it Spring yet? Sadly, winter is clearly not anywhere close to being over (especially for those of us residing in New England), and even with the Spring equinox only a couple weeks away, March always seems to drag on… forever…
Whether you are an avid fan of Valentine’s day, or believe that it is an arbitrary ‘holiday’ created by the greeting card companies, there is bound to be some sort of ‘romantic’ movie marathon that will appeal to you. No matter how, or if, you plan on celebrating Valentine’s Day this year…
“The most wonderful time of the year,” that perennial period between Halloween and New Year’s when the world seems to go just a little crazy. Yes, you read that right, the world goes crazy…
It's officially that most wonderful time of the year! Though we at The Film Rewind have been celebrating the holidays for a good while, the holiday season is now in full force! Now is the time to bake some holiday treats, turn up the festive music, and watch your favorite holiday specials…
What a crazy rollercoaster November 2020 has turned into… Given the current state of things (what with the recent spike in COVID-19 cases, and ‘edge-of-your-seat’ results of the 2020 US Presidential Election), and the fact that most everyone is emotionally and mentally exhausted right about now, we have decided that we need a celebratory film to help bridge the gap between Halloween and Christmas…
Being on the verge of my 30th Birthday (yup, the big 3-0) I cannot help but reminisce about all of the films that have had such a major impact upon my life…
We know you have been waiting with great antici---pation, all month long, for our thoughts on all things “Rocky Horror,” so, without further ado, here they are… Enjoy!
With so many theatrical films being postponed and constantly changing their release dates, in some cases even opting for streaming availability in the midst of this pandemic, there is truly little new content for your viewing pleasure at the moment…
2020 feels like we have certainly slipped into another dimension, so why not take the month of August to celebrate the 45th Anniversary of one of the most iconic cult films of all time? Originally premiering on August 15, 1975, The Rocky Horror Picture Show…
I'm not sure if I should be asking the question, "Have you seen Hamilton on Disney+ yet?" or "How many times have you seen Hamilton on Disney+?"…
There are fewer and fewer things that keep me going during this year, aka: the worst year in every respect. Thankfully, we now have something huge to look forward to, from Disney+ of all places…
