So the Academy Awards were last night, and although I had no intention of watching (zero interest, despite my decades-long devotion to the Oscars; we'll discuss all of that in another post), I had to, if only to hear my favorite being nominated for a Best Supporting Actor award. He won previously for producing 12 …

Blogtober #16: Veruca Salt.
Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory is on the telly. One of my absolute favorites of all time. And you know what? Charlie was great and good and all that, but there's only one person I identify with. When I was younger, it was definitely a secret admiration. But now? We're soul sisters. Miss Veruca …

Old Bae. Bond. That Scottish accent. Indiana Jones' Dad. You've loved Sean Connery all your life, haven't you? Me, too. Here's to aging gracefully, Dr. Jones.

Saying I can't wait is certainly an understatement. We …
The Age of Adaline.

My 20…On the Big Screen.
Remember when I did this before? Well, I'm doing it again. This time, however, I'm talkin' about 20 random movies I love and why I love them so. They're in no order of importance. Ready? Like to hear it? Here it go... 1. A Room with a View. Let's see: a Victorian setting, Helena Bonham …
Macarons and Gatsby.
Because why not?
