Things are heating up in the trailer for Mike Flanagan’s Carrie! 
It’s not always easy to adapt someone else’s work. Stick too close to the source material, and you end up with Gus Van Sant’s Psycho. Veer just a bit away from it, and you may end up with surprises like Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining or...
There’s a lot of music being made in Tony Gilroy’s Behemoth! 
The teaser for Behemoth didn’t do anything for the first 30 seconds. Yeah, I like Pedro Pascal. He’s fun to watch. Is he a bit overexposed these days? Sure, but then again, so are Tom Holland, Zendaya and Robert Pattinson. Doesn’t mean they can’t act....

On the Nature of Daylight (by Max Richter)

This entry is part 4 of 11 in the series Valentine's Day Playlist

I first found out about Max Richter through my cousin, who is a big fan of HBO’s The Leftovers. After finding “November”, used in that show, I kept an eye out. He reminded me of Michael Brook, who was responsible for “Aquamarine” on the score…

This entry is part 5 of 11 in the series Valentine's Day Playlist

If you ever watched She’s Having a Baby, with Kevin Bacon and Elizabeth McGovern, you’ll understand why This Woman’s Work by Kate Bush is here in the mix. It’s a sweet 80’s song. I’ll leave it here to speak for itself.

Happy Valentine’s Day! Say what you will about The Twilight Saga, but it did give us some great tunes. One of my favorites is Roslyn, by Bon Iver & St. Vincent. I’ll admit to not really knowing many of the lines to this one (and…

Moments in Love – by The Art of Noise

This entry is part 10 of 11 in the series Valentine's Day Playlist

Goodness, where to start with Moments in Love. To understand this, you have to be aware of something in the Eighties and Nineties called The Quiet Storm. On Thursdays or Friday nights, around 10pm or so, popular radio stations would play slow jams or love…
