Delicacy, a Sweet Romance (Film Review)

A sweet film with Audrey Tautou opens this weekend and it’s one that women everywhere should enjoy.  It’s called Delicacy and features an age-old story but told in an interesting new way.  The touching little romance film sets up date night and an opportunity for the guys to latch on the gal they have been […]

A Monster in Paris (Film Review)

At the 2012 Los Angeles Animation Festival, I had the opportunity to watch a little gem of a film that has not yet been released in the United States. If you asked me a week ago if a movie about a giant sized singing flea sounded appealing, I would have say no. A Monster in […]
