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…
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…
Spring is here! Between the (dreaded) time change (seriously: enough with ‘daylight savings’ time already!), the days steadily getting longer, and the weather becoming surprisingly pleasant, we, the Team at The Film Rewind, have admittingly gotten a little distracted…
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…
Some Like it Hot (1959) undoubtedly has one of the best punchlines in cinema history. Even with the lore that remains surrounding this film’s troubled production, and the onset clashes between director Billy Wilder and actress Marilyn Monroe, what shines through and remains timeless is the comedy of this film…
Here, in the middle of February, we are celebrating Black History Month. Given the summer that we just witnessed and the affirmation that racism, unfortunately, remains alive and thriving in the United States, it is imperative that we aim to educate ourselves as much as possible on matters of black history as well as confronting the problems of the present…
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…
Happy February! It's the coldest, shortest month of the year, and yet there's still so much to celebrate, even in 2021. We here at The Film Rewind have decided to turn up the heat and celebrate Valentine's Day this month with our Film Club pick…
It has been a long time since I watched Three Men and a Baby (1987), and its sequel, Three Men and a Little Lady (1990), and I was honestly expecting not to like either film…
It has been a while since I checked in and mentioned what I have currently been watching. Even with 2020 in our rearview, there has been a serious lack of ‘new’ content, so I have found myself mostly turning to older movies…
In case any of you were expecting anything different, 2021 is looking to be merely '2020: The Sequel.' With almost a full calendar year of pandemic life behind us, and an uncertain future still ahead of us, it's difficult to commit ourselves to look forward to anything…
2021 is shaping up to be just as intense as 2020 (we weren’t all hoping that some magical spell would be broken at the stroke of midnight on New Year’s Eve… right!?!), and if the first couple weeks into the new year have shown us anything…
I never know where I’m going to land with these summer blockbuster blind spots. So far, my favorable viewing of Jaws (dir. Steven Spielberg) was later followed by a decidedly negative reaction to Independence Day 1996, dir. Roland Emmerich). I had a few reasons to go into Die Hard with high-ish hopes…
Christmas might look a little different this year, but some things never change. Secretly, we think that cats love this time of year…
The holidays might look a little different this year, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t adapt your traditions to fit with the times. One of my biggest holiday traditions was going to the movies on Christmas Eve…
“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…
We know that 2020 is shaping up to be one strange year that has drastically altered most everyone’s holiday plans… So, we, the team here at The Film Rewind…
