The Green Hornet RATING: M DISTRIBUTOR: Sony RELEASE DATE: January 20 The Green Hornet is yet another of those comic-book-to-film conversions aimed at the male market, filled with explosive action and emotionally challenged heroes.

Morning Glory Rating: M Distributor: Paramount Release Date: January 6, 2011 The first twenty minutes of Morning Glory took me back twenty years. I started my media career in a number of smallish newsrooms that mirrored the frantic pace the film’s key character Becky Fuller finds herself in: tight-knit teams always lurching between the polar opposites of promotion […]
