A Day in the Life of a Libra – November 16, 2009
L’Art de la Séduction (Looks familiar, no?) Recently, my bestest was in town on her yearly pilgrimage to the land of Reality TV. [1] While here she purchased a book entitled The Art of Seduction[2] to help me improve in some departments.[3] Without going into great detail the book uses historical events and people to…

Matthew Bakal talks ATOM Tickets redefining movie going
Yesterday, everyone on my Facebook feed was hype about the trailer of Hidden Figures starring Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer, and Janelle Monáe; an untold true story of black, female scientists at NASA. I’ve never seen so many proclamations of being first in line to buy tickets since the last Star Wars was released. Which is…

TV5MONDE USA en août
Bonjour mes amies! When I was studying French way back in college, my professors would always say the best way to learn was to immerse yourself in French entertainment. That could mean books, television, movies, radio, music, anything that provided constant verbiage to grasp the many accents, dialects, and terms used through repetition. With all…

Les Livres en Français / Books in French
La langue d’amour isn’t always as classy as we’ve made it out to be. French, like the many languages of the world, has its very crass side. Actually, when you hear “Ouais, mon ex était un tel connasse!” it still sounds very, very romantic – but trust me, it isn’t. That’s why it’s so important to…

Necessary reads for life after high school
I turn 30 in two months, and am pointing that out wherever I go, to anyone who will listen [or not listen]. It really doesn’t matter, but I’m doing it! But there were a lot of things I wish I was told before hitting this point, like, “Tillie, college will not be the best years…

SUNDANCE FILM | TRAPPED
I am what Beyonce refers to in her “Formation” song as Texasbama. I was born in Alabama, but raised in Texas. Both are nothing short of crimson apple red when it comes to politics, and devout blind Christians when it comes to faith. As the years have passed, and cities become more progressive, I believe…

SUNDANCE FILM | SING STREET
This is my first official film review from Sundance Film Festival. The last ones you’ve read or skimmed or gazed at the photos were interviews of people who played a major role in bringing those works to life. Sing Street, on the other hand, will have the pleasure of being torn to shreds by moi! Just…

ON THE SET OF SUITS | AARON KORSH
How early do we find who turned Mike in? We’re going to figure it out, but not make it a massive man-hunt or a massive search to find that out. So we know it’s a big deal for Mike, of course, but can you talk about how it sends some of the other characters into…

ON THE SET OF SUITS | PATRICK J. ADAMS (MIKE ROSS)
How far in advance did Aaron tell you about the big twist in 5/10? We had been, that’s a good question I don’t even remember. You never really know what it’s going to be, so I didn’t know for sure, what it would it would be or what it would look like, until the week…

SUNDANCE FILM | YOGA HOSERS’ CHRISTOPHER DRAKE
Most people don’t realize the importance of music in any production. It adds suspense, feels, fear, humor, or leads you to the emotion your meant to endure during that scene. Without it, it’s like watching a very long table read when everyone but you has a script to follow along. Basically it’s painful. That’s why…
