NancyG and CorryGActor Jeremy Pope, THE INSPECTIONJeremy Pope - THE INSPECTION
"The Inspection is a 2022 American drama film written and directed by Elegance Bratton. Inspired by Bratton's real-life experiences, the film follows a young man who faces homophobia, both at a Marines boot camp and at home from his mother. It stars Jeremy Pope, Raúl Castillo, McCaul Lombardi, Aaron Dominguez, Nicholas Logan, Eman Esfandi, Andrew Kai, Aubrey Joseph, Bokeem Woodbine, and Gabrielle Union." - Wikipedia
THE INSPECTION is a study in building character, especially in the sense that Ellis (Pope) more so builds the characters of those around him as they come to accept who h...
2023-02-2002 minNancyG and CorryGActress, Singer Janelle Monáe, GLASS ONION: A KNIVES OUT MYSTERYDamn, that was fun! I don’t know about you, but I find the symbolism of a Black woman destroying one of the most famous icons of beauty in the world (read — a specific type of beauty) in order to crumble the ill-gotten empire of a con-artist White man who is only wealthy and considered legendary because he stole ideas and credit from others (most notably from said Black woman) and surrounded himself with “yes men” pretty fucking disruptive.
Not only that, but in this interview with Janelle Monáe, she pointed out that the symbolism goes even further. Cassandra and Helen...
2023-02-2003 minNancyG and CorryGActress Deborah Olayinka Ayorinde, RICHESThe richness of RICHES! A thoroughly dynamic show, RICHES follows two families separated by an ocean and drawn together by a man and his company. One of the best things about this show is that it includes several Black cultures - African, British, American, Caribbean. There's so much to explore with this series, but ultimately it is a fun, nail-biting drama in the vein of the classic DYNASTY. So if that's your thing, you will adore RICHES.
In this interview, Deborah Olayinka Ayorinde talks about how her role in RICHES differs from her role in another popular series, THEM, and...
2023-02-0103 minNancyG and CorryGWriter/Director Sam Mendes, EMPIRE OF LIGHT"[Set in England in 1980] EMPIRE OF LIGHT is a 2022 British romantic drama film written and directed by Sam Mendes. The film stars Olivia Colman, Micheal Ward, Monica Dolan, Tom Brooke, Tanya Moodie, Hannah Onslow, Crystal Clarke, Toby Jones, and Colin Firth." - Wikipedia
I would say that EMPIRE OF LIGHT is not what you would expect. It starts off seemingly only focused on one subject, but blossoms into a story about two people who manage to grow through different but nevertheless similar experiences. Hilary (Olivia Colman) and Stephen (Micheal Ward) almost couldn't be any different. She's a middle-aged White woman...
2023-01-2103 minNancyG and CorryGInterview with Audra McDonald and Michael Boatman, THE GOOD FIGHTCreated by Michelle King and Robert King (both of whom also created the hit show EVIL) and Phil Alden Robinson, the series deals with a law firm and the internal and external drama that comes with that. Audra and Michael play Liz and Julius, respectively.
In season six, Audra finds herself at odds with the new bigshot at the firm, played by Andre Braugher - all while chaos abounds due to protests outside and terrorist threats inside the firm.
In this interview, they talk about their expectations of working on the final season and working with Braugher.

2023-01-0106 minNancyG and CorryGInterview with Director Edward Buckles, Jr., KATRINA BABIESThis harrowing documentary visits in the present day some of those children whose lives were upended during Hurricane Katrina. Largely forgotten by the mainstream after the tragedy, they have had to come to terms with what it meant to relocate and adjust in a world that treated them as a burden.
The director himself was also a child then, and uses his own experiences and emotions to round out this meaningful film that brings a light to what it means to look out for oneself and those less fortunate. It also takes into account the responsibility our system has to...
2023-01-0106 minNancyG and CorryGInterview with Brian Tyree Henry and Jennifer Lawrence, CAUSEWAYOne of the beautiful things about CAUSEWAY is that in the pacing you can see the tendrils of human feeling and connection forming. The silence between interactions is full in a way that hints at the depth of the inner worlds of Lynsey (Jennifer Lawrence) and James (Brian Tyree Henry), two people who find each other through their traumas.
I was pleasantly surprised, as I expected this film to more or less be a depressing romp through a neverending land of sadness - which certainly has its merits in cinema and storytelling. That's what I emotionally and intellectually prepared for...
2022-12-1907 minNancyG and CorryGInterview with Director Reginald Hudlin, SIDNEY DocumentaryThis documentary was so thought-provoking for me, about how mentally healthy perspectives at a young age can contribute to shaping a person's life. That might be an odd (partial) takeaway, given the richness of Sidney Poitier's life. But while watching the film, that is one of the aspects I heavily keyed into. While, clearly, not the only factor, I ruminated about how much of who he was stemmed from that one fact.
Naturally, there’s a lot that went into his life and the project, as he had an extensive career and life that touched many people. But there are a...
2022-12-0605 minNancyG and CorryGInterview with the Cast and Creator of REASONABLE DOUBT, Part 1This series is a must watch! Created by Raamla Mohamed and produced by Kerry Washington and Raamla, among others, the show adds another fabulous Black woman lawyer to the pantheon that includes Oliva Pope herself. Jax (Emayatzy Corinealdi) is great at her job, but is having a less stellar time balancing her complicated love life. Not that she's not having her fun, but whereas she's clear on what she wants and doesn't want, her wants and the wants of the men in her life don't always mesh well.
On top of that, she has taken on a case that might...
2022-11-1519 minNancyG and CorryGInterview with Omar Epps and Sascha Penn, POWER BOOK III: RAISING KANANFrom Creator #SaschaPenn and #50Cent, #RaisingKanan follows young Kanan in the 90s. As much as it is about the drug trade, it's also about family and music and the struggles that come with all three.
One thing that stood out to me about this excellent series is the attention to detail with the time period. Several times while watching it - I had memories of owning, or people I knew owning - pieces of clothing and jewelry of that era. It was incredibly realistic, and puts into perspective just how much things have changed in that respect over the years.

2022-11-1504 minNancyG and CorryGInterview with the Cast and Creators of JOHNSON on Bounce TV#JohnsonBounceTV is seemingly a series that many people have been asking to see. Much like #Insecure, it follows a group of Black friends navigating their lives. However, this show focuses on Black men, their romantic relationships, friendships, jobs, hanging out - their realistic everyday existence.
It's a different view from what is more often seen of Black men in the mainstream. In this interview, the creators and cast talk about what it meant for them to be able to bring this much needed depiction to life.

2022-11-1511 minNancyG and CorryGInterview with Alexi Hawley, Terence Paul Winter, Niecy Nash-Betts, Frankie Faison, THE ROOKIE: FEDS#TheRookieFeds is a new hit show focusing on law enforcement, with a twist! From the creator of #TheRookie, this series spinoff focuses on #NiecyNashBetts (Simone) and her journey becoming an FBI agent in her late forties.
Having a show like this - with a little bit of everything - focusing on a Black woman is not something that's often seen. And, of course, Niecy and Frankie bring a great deal to their roles as father and daughter with opposing views of law enforcement professionals. Not only is the show action-packed and funny, it is also heartwarming.
In this interview, they...
2022-10-1212 minNancyG and CorryGInterview with Renee Elise Goldsberry, Josh Segarra, SHE-HULKUnless you've been living under a rock, you know that #SheHulk is one of #MarvelStudios hottest new shows. While, naturally, some "fanbros" are mad that there's a whole show that focuses on a strong woman with an extensive education that she worked hard for for years, they can stay mad! Art imitates life in the series, as that's one of the core obstacles in the show this season.
But SHE-HULK is a funny show with full of the Marvel razzle dazzle! Can a superhero find love as herself? How will she navigate being a lawyer, a superhero, and dating? And...
2022-10-1202 minNancyG and CorryGInterview with Sope Dirisu and Zawe Ashton, MR. MALCOLM'S LIST#ZaweAshton and #SopeDirisu star in this romantic comedy-drama set in 1800s #England, and it's such a feel-good movie where everybody wins.
Things are set into motion when Julia (Zawe) fails to meet Mr. Malcolm's (Sope) list of requirements in a marriage partner. Furious, she enlists her childhood friend, Selina (Freida Pinto), in a plot to humiliate him with a false romance. But things backfire when the fake romance turns very real.
From the start, it's difficult not to like most of these flawed characters who are at times silly but also endearing in one way or another. Despite her machinations...

2022-10-1207 minNancyG and CorryGInterview with Craig Robinson, Luke del Tredici and Dan Goor, KILLING ITAre you #KillingIt? That's a question that seems to be on a lot of minds these days, with the advancements in social media and entrepreneurship. People are expected to be bossing up 24/7, no days off. On the surface, there's nothing wrong with achievement and being your own boss. But, as pointed out in the interview, by an average of the numbers, all people can't always win at that.
The show is a hilarious, and insightful, look at that culture and mindset, and how it can try to diminish the basic principles of human decency. There's a sad but funny scene...
2022-10-1205 minNancyG and CorryGInterview with DeWanda Wise, JURASSIC WORLD DOMINIONIf you haven't seen #jurassicworld, see it! It's a lot of fun, and while it's been promoted as the last in the series, let's hope that's not the case. For one, it introduces some new characters that would be wonderful for expansion - one being Kayla Watts (Dewanda Wise).
I was intrigued by her character's potential backstory, after seeing her behavior in the movie, particularly sparked by her initial encounter with Maisie (#IsabellaSermon). She becomes another hero in the film, and the buddy chemistry between her and Owen (#ChrisPratt) suggests there could be more to the franchise - also involving...

Alphonse Nicholson, and Parker Sawyers #PValley is a popular series about the lives of strippers and the other people in a fictional town (Chucalissa) in Mississippi. Uncle Clifford is the house mother that runs The Pynk, the club where much of the show initially takes place. While strippers Autumn, Keyshawn and Mercedes, as well as the bouncer Diamond, are central to the show, Clifford and his relationships - particularly with rapper Lil Murda - also take center stage.

2022-07-1309 minNancyG and CorryGInterview with Tory Kittles and Joe Wilson, THE EQUALIZERThe new #TheEqualizer starring #QueenLatifah and #ToryKittles takes the tried-and-true detective "man with specific skills saving people" formula and gives it a new twist in more ways than one. Aside from the change of having a woman as the person with the specific skills, the show also focuses on a number of issues facing the Black community that are often overlooked.
As the nation reels from another terrorist attack against Black people yet again, it's important to note how entertainment/art fields can also creatively tackle these situations and bring to light the history of covert and overt oppression and terror...
2022-05-1709 minNancyG and CorryGInterview with May Calamawy, MOON KNIGHTWhat better avatar than a person with multiple personalities? You get as many times the avatar for the price of one! At least that's what the deity Khonshu believes, and he's not wrong.
#MoonKnight is one hell of a entertaining, great show. About the only thing disappointing about it is that it's only six episodes long (so far. Here's hoping there's a second season). The last episode aired on May the 4th (be with you).
Marc Spector (#OscarIsaac) and Steven Grant inhabit the same body. But only one of them knows that - until Steven "wakes up" in the middle...
2022-05-0602 minNancyG and CorryGInterview with Harold Perrineau, FROMIf you've been following for any amount of time, you know that not only have I worked professionally in the field, but I also love some good fictionalized horror! And #From is no exception to that rule! This show is balls-to-the-wall scary, good fun! And it also has a heavy dose of humanity. If you're not interested for the monsters (omg, how can you not be) then you'll be with it for the mysteries, the science (yes, there's that too) and the community.
#HaroldPerrineau is a perfect choice for this show, and not just because of his role in #Lost...
2022-04-2405 minNancyG and CorryGInterview with Courtney B. Vance, 61ST STREETAt first, one might think that #61ststreet is another "Black trauma show" (something that's not inherently bad within reason, though at times difficult to watch. But that's a complex conversation for another time). However, it's not. When I started watching the series, one of my first joking thoughts was, "Uh, oh. Time to put up the emotional barriers. Repeat after me - 'it's just a show, it's just a show.'" Naturally, given the type of series it is, it also deals with real life situations.
But it's also a hopeful series that shows something we don't often get to...
2022-04-2408 minNancyG and CorryG'Catch the Fair One' Interview with Actress and World Champion Boxer Kali Reis'Catch the Fair One' is not just a story about human trafficking. It's also about the hardships of Native American women who go missing and/or are abused. The suffering of these women is often ignored by a mainstream that denies their dignity and existence. When POC go missing and are trafficked and/or killed, most turn a blind eye. Sometimes this even happens within the Native American community - largely due to systemic oppression, poverty and self-hatred. When Kaylee goes looking for her missing sister, it is primarily without support. Despite her boxing career, she is low on money...

There are also personal accounts from Jeffery, in dealing with racism as a child and the profound effect it had on him - in particular the time a basketball coach and Catholic school priest stood up for his rights, though he did not know until 30 years later. It's both a saddening and heartwarming look at the many facets of racial history in...
2022-03-0815 minNancyG and CorryGInterview with W. Kamau Bell, WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT COSBYWhew! This one was a doozy. In this interview, Kamau talks about how we can dismantle the myths that narcissistic predators like Cosby and, to a lesser but no less egomaniacal extent, Joss Whedon use to endear themselves and mask their abuses from the larger public. In the case of Whedon, because his actions (that we've been made aware of to-date) are not criminal, but certainly vile, there may be a sense for some that redemption is possible with genuine change and atonement. However, as we've seen, such types rarely either believe or care that they are in the wrong...

In watching the documentary, it's impossible not to feel the loss of the talented and unassuming artist, who had a gift for creating complex lyrics on the spot at any moment. He was inspired by the smallest things and used his talent, as many do, to connect with the world. Despite his abrupt exit, he...

A plan for them to become legendary in tennis. As they say, the rest is history and the result speaks for itself.
Naturally, it's fascinating to watch the twists and turns here. Much like a tennis match, there are the moments where you see how things might have turned out differently. Confrontations, deals, games. And comparing it all to the triumphs of the living legends as we know them and their story today.

Curry, 'Attica'In this interview, #StanleyNelson and #TraciACurry give their thoughts on prison reform and working on their documentary #Attica. The film takes an unwavering look at the Attica prison riot/uprising of 1971, and the devastation that followed. It was harrowing watching this film and seeing the atrocities committed. While some prisoners no doubt deserved to be there, others were wrongly incarcerated. Not to mention the tragedies that happened to the hostages and the police that were not committing crimes but instead trying to help prisoners and hostages. The subsequent cover-up and revelation of that cover-up changed the way many looked at...

Jaden is an insightful young artist and he brings to stark life this look behind-the-scenes of Kaepernick's upbringing.
For years, we've watched as Colin has been mistreated for the simple gesture of kneeling for victims of unwarranted police brutality. Even though he received the idea after consulting with a military man, his act was deliberately framed as an act of hatred against the military and the country. While he inadvertently became a symbol, the...

It's one of Shakespeare's greatest plays, and the performances and production bring it to life so vividly it's as if you can simply step into it. Simply astounding!
In this interview, #CoreyHawkins - who plays Macduff - talks about working on the amazing fight scene with Denzel Washington, whose essence and performance is godlike as the doomed Macbeth.

2021-03-2818 minNancyG and CorryG"3... 2... 1... Frankie Go Boom" Interview with Director Jordan RobertsSXSW Interview. From copy: “3..2..1..Frankie Go Boom,” from writer & director Jordan Roberts embraces madcap comedy with true abandon. Rooted in honesty & sincerity at its heart, the film embraces a raunchy charm that offers laugh-out-loud belly laughs. Subtle underpinnings of sharp societal commentary on everything from the internet to love to religion and sibling torment, invite audiences in on the jokes. Toss in the comedy stylings of comedic veterans like Nora Dunn, Lizzy Caplan, Chris O’Dowd, and Chris Noth, perfectly orbiting a funny & thoroughly frazzled Charlie Hunnan—how could you not laugh?"

This is the first CBD oil I've tried, and overall it wasn't bad. It wasn't something I would normally try, but the company seemed interesting.

So if there's something I like or would like to try...
