The Wall (2017)

May 16, 2017by lsbushey Leave a comment

“I’m scared of what’s behind it.” With the release of Phone Booth back in 2002, Grand Piano in 2013, and now The Wall, we have an exceptional trifecta of films which equate to adult nightmares. These […]

Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk (2016)

November 26, 2016by lsbushey 2 Comments

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot (2016)

March 6, 2016by lsbushey Leave a comment

Bridge of Spies (2015)

October 18, 2015by lsbushey 1 Comment
