MOVIE REVIEW- Captain Marvel Firstly, the cinema was full! Tickets sold out several times. It’s clear that the cinematic superhero phenomenon is still in full swing. It’s refreshing to see yet another female central character gracing the big screen after Wonder Woman. Co-directed and co-written by women too. Brie Larson plays Carol Danvers aka “Captain […]

Does it? Really? Well, maybe not the way we expect or demand at certain times in our lives.

If you know people are going to watch a film, and you’re interested in the art of films and filmmaking it’s a great idea to try reviewing films. A good or not so good film deserves a review, but sometimes the hype of a movie doesn’t always mean it’s going to be a great film. […]

Should I edit as I go? I’m not sure what the percentages are but I can assure you it would be different for everyone. Should or shouldn’t you edit as you go? Personally, I do a little of both. My main approach is to get the story down on paper. However, each day I do […]

After reading, Educate yourself, then educate others: WAR, Invasion Day and treaty by Massimo Amerena, a powerful article indeed, I would like to add, yes educate yourself, but also engage in healthy self-reflection of your own attitudes and behaviours.
