The stories of how the wealthy and powerful are shaping American journalism to fit their needs is more than a little disturbing. Objectivity and freedom of the press is one of the foundations on which our country was based, and it’s ability to be controlled by those with deep pockets and influential authority is flat out alarming.

Sundance Review: “Get Out”
This movie could’ve been a blazingly original commentary on race relations but instead, there’s no cohesiveness to his intended message. It’s a good idea, but it’s poorly executed.
Sundance Review: “Free and Easy”
It’s not often that American audiences have the ability to view an artistic work simmering with such discontent and restless revolution from a country like China, and that’s part of what makes “Free and Easy” so special.
Sundance Review: “The Big Sick”
There are certain movies that are so intensely personal, so fiercely credible that there’s no question they are based on true stories. “The Big Sick” feels authentic because it is authentic.
Sundance Review: “Wind River”
“Wind River” is a story of savagery, loneliness, and slow burning pursuit.
“Live By Night”
“Live By Night” isn’t rotten, it’s simply forgettable.
