New Home Blues
Culture
Lefty here. I just giving you an update on my transition to premature retirement. It sucks. Oh, there was no choice. The shop had to close, and my people made sure I could remain with them. This is great in that I have become quite attached to them and also just couldn't imagine returning to life on the street and under houses. But, damn, I had become a shop cat and a damn good one at that. The shop was big-really big-and I had the...

Film Review: Midway
Film
There is a lot going on in the World War II action-drama Midway and that is part of the problem. Director Roland Emmerich's movie places the viewer right in the middle of what the United States did before, during, and after the attack on Pearl Harbor. However, it largely focuses on the Battle of Midway, a turning point in the United States' conflict with Japan. The film tries so hard to encompass everything that happened surrounding the...
Film Review: The Irishman
Film
The Irishman is another mobster movie from filmmaker
Martin Scorsese, the director of the masterful Goodfellas (1990) and Casino
(1995). You would be mistaken, however, to think that this is just a rehash of Goodfellas,

contemplates aging, and the story is a recollection by a hitman.
Based on Charles Brandt's nonfiction book, I Heard You
