Max Irons and Saoirse Ronan star in THE HOST

The Host, Meyer’s Odd Romance at the Movies (Film Review)

  Bringing her new book to the screen, Writer/Producer Stephenie Meyer tries for a good opening this weekend for the film adaptation of The Host.  Hitting the target audience with a jolt of romance fantasy, the teens to twenties females should give the film a strong attendance.

WHAT WOULD YOU ASK JANE LEVY FROM ABC’S “SUBURGATORY”?

“Living in the ‘burbs can be hell, but escape for Tessa is not an option.” It took us awhile to coordinate our schedules, but Beyond the Marquee has landed an exclusive interview with actress Jane Levy (aka “Tessa Altman”) from ABC’s “Suburgatory” and star of the upcoming Evil Dead remake.  We’d like to extend an opportunity for […]

The film could have easily been an episode on a television show rather than a major […]

Spring Breakers, a Bikini “Bust” (Film Review)

  Glitz, glamor, gross, guns, and gratuitous nudity, violence, drugs and sex, that’s the sum of the new film Spring Breakers in theaters this weekend.  While they bill the film as a comedy, there’s not much of that and as for drama the acting’s so poor it’s more laughable than tragic. I will say that […]
