Raise Hell
Even in the heyday of newspapers, it was a rather rare feat for journalists in that medium to attain national acclaim. But one who achieved that – and did so by creating a readily distinguishable persona for herself – is the subject of an enlightening and entertaining new documentary, "Raise Hell: The Life & Times of Molly Ivins."The Cinema Scribe is a bi-weekly show hosted by Author Brent Marchant.

Don't be fooled by the rocks that we got. We're still Breakfast All Day from the block. And we were dazzled by Jennifer Lopez's electrifying performance in the true crime drama "Hustlers," although Christy and Alonso had differing levels of enthusiasm for the movie as a whole.
