1/14/18 review of film Proud Mary, dir. by Babak Najafi

Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of the film Proud Mary, directed by Babak Najafi.

The thread gives a summary of the film. The thread discusses some of the performances I like. It discusses comparisons others and I made to other films. It discusses the action sequences. It discusses the film's visuals. And it discusses some reviewers' feeling that that film was too short. It discusses some of the film's themes, like family, crime families, motherhood, single motherhood, professional womanhood.

Some of my Twitter threads have been twisted out of chronological order by Twitter's platform. The coherency of this thread suffers slightly as a result. My apologies.

I saw this film at the Regal UA Denver Pavilions theater in downtown Denver, Colorado.

11/19/17 review of Bolshoi in Cinema's Taming of the Shrew

Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of the Bolshoi Ballet in Cinema's encore screening of The Taming of the Shrew.

The thread gives a summary of the ballet and some background on the Bolshoi in Cinema screenings. The thread discusses Maillot's choreography and musical choices. It discusses the ballet's classical and experimental styles. And it discusses some themes in the ballet like idealized love versus social constraints. The thread also gives links to a lot of videos the Bolshoi has made about this ballet.

Unfortunately, this is yet another thread of mine that has been twisted around on Twitter's platform. Not sure why this happened so often in late 2017. But it does -- I'm sorry -- make reading the thread a little difficult.

Here is the link to the website for the Bolshoi Ballet in Cinema.

I saw this screening at the Regal UA Denver Pavilions theater in Denver, Colorado.
