I fell in love with a photograph; it was love at first sight. His smile was so bewitching, youth rejoicing in the light. Static blue eyes stared at me, penetrating through space and time. I crossed a hazardous road to be with him in a fantasy of mine. Sadly, this story has no happy end. […]

Naked Truth

Adam and Eve had the right idea. If we continued to toe that line, we wouldn’t have an obesity problem. Without clothes there would be no fat people and this is a hill I’m willing to die on. It will also solve the big issue of consent. You don’t have to keep second guessing yourself. […]

HONK FOR JESUS. SAVE YOUR SOUL (2022) My rating: 6/10
September 6, 2022
“Honk for Jesus. Save Your Soul.” is a comedy written, directed, and produced by Adamma Ebo, in her feature directorial debut. It is a feature-length adaptation of Ebo’s 2018 short film of the same name. Regina Hall and Sterling K. Brown, are producers on the film alongside Daniel Kaluuya, who produced “Honk for Jesus. Save Your Soul.” under his 59% Productions banner, with Jordan Peele serving as executive producer under his Monkeypaw Productions banner. I wasn’t sure what to expect — the film didn’t offer much and I didn’t get much from watching it. Other than a couple of funny lines, this movie was a wash.
“Honk for Jesus. Save Your Soul.” is a satirical comedy starring Regina Hall (Trinitie Childs), who was the proud first lady of a Southern Baptist megachurch, along with her husband Pastor Lee-Curtis Childs (Sterling K. Brown), who once served a congregation in the…

THREE THOUSAND YEARS OF LONGING (2022) – My rating: 8.7/10
August 28, 2022
Three Thousand Years of Longing is a dark fantasy directed by George Miller. He wrote the screenplay with Augusta Gore, adapting the 1994 short story “The Djinn in the Nightingale’s Eye” by A. S. Byatt. The film was released in the United States on August 26, 2022, by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (via United Artists Releasing). When I saw the trailer, I was immediately intrigued because the plot looked different and interesting. Also, I am a big fan of the two leading actors. I loved the movie and thought it held many truths. Well done Mr. Miller!

BEAST (2022) – My rating: 8/10
August 27, 2022
Beast is a thriller directed by Baltasar Kormákur from a screenplay by Ryan Engle and is based on a story by Jaime Primak Sullivan. The plot revolves around a recently widowed doctor and his two teenage daughters who travel to a South African game reserve managed by an old family friend and wildlife biologist. What begins as a journey of healing and a chance to reconnect with his daughters, turns into a fight for survival. I’m a huge fan of Edris so I was anxious to see Beast. The film was well done considering this is not a new concept.
Recently widowed Dr. Nate Samuels (Edris Elba) and his two teenage daughters, Meredith (Iyana Halley) and Norah (Leah Sava Jeffries) arrive at the Mopani Game Reserve in South Africa for a vacation. Nate reunites with his old friend, Martin Battles (Sharlto Copley) a biologist and Mopani manager, who introduced Nate…

Hate Only Damages the Hater Not the Hated
August 11, 2022
As a survivor of severe bullying and peer-abuse, I’ve seen the faces of hate- up close and personal. And let me tell you, it’s ugly! And dangerous! I know what it looks like. I’ve felt it’s powerful and painful sting and have been paralyzed by it. As much as I hate to admit it, I’ve […]
