If “We Need a Little Christmas,” from the 1966 Broadway musical Mame hasn’t been playing in your head for the past few months, it is time to get on board…
All in Film
There are few physical possessions that I cherish more than my VHS collection…
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…
Ever since my first viewing of Modern Times (1936), I have been enraptured by Charlie Chaplin, and with each film that I experience in his filmography, my love grows. From Shoulder Arms (1918) to City Lights (1931), his infusion of comedy and pathos has never failed to both charm and move me. In his Little Tramp character, we see humanity peeking through a veil of suffering…
I didn’t know what to expect going into watching The Great Dictator (1940). Admittingly, this was one Charlie Chaplin film that I have somehow managed to bypass throughout my studies and viewing, having watched certain clips here and there…
🎵 “I put a spell on you, and now you’re mine…” 🎵 We, the team at The Film Rewind, cannot hear this song (any time of year) without thinking about Bette Midler and her delightful performance as Winifred Sanderson in Hocus Pocus (1993)…
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…
Nothing screams Halloween quite like a good, old-fashioned movie marathon. Whether horror films are your jam…
Happy (Belated) Autumnal Equinox! Seriously though, it is ‘that’ time of year (and no, we aren’t talking about Christmas), fall is upon us, and we, the team at The Film Rewind, could not be happier…
Since Bailey wrote about her favorite felines of film and television last month (check out her top ten fictional kitties here), I have not been able to stop thinking about which cats would make the cut on my list…
There's a slight chance that Sarah and I are getting a little antsy for the Halloween season...
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!
Whenever I face having to list my all-time favorite movies, I get a little troubled. I never know whether technicality allows me to include one of my favorite films, Anne of Green Gables (1985, dir. Kevin Sullivan)…
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…
What else can I write about when my cat sister, Sabrina, insists on climbing all over me every ten seconds?
We should have known when we opened the year with Dolittle that it would be a rough one...
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…
