Movies

Toy Story 3 (2010) Contrived, maudlin and unnecessary "reunion show," left me feeling angry.

Lady of the Night (1925) Anodyne to the modern crap I have been forcing myself to endure, Norma Shearer plays a double role as rich girl and poor girl in love with the same man. A nice little melodrama, showcasing Shearer's real talents - as an actress in the silent screen style. The expressiveness of her wide, open face and body language convey more than words could speak. Nothing challenging about the story, just pleasant to watch. 6/10
