I actually saw this one a few months ago at Twin Cities Film Fest. It was my pick of film of the month in October and also earns a spot on my Top 10 Best list of 2020. Nomadland is about a woman named Fern (Frances McDormand) who lost everything in the Great Recession sets …

FlixChatter Review: I CARE A LOT (2021)
When I first heard of this dark comedy, I was immediately intrigued by its casting of Rosamund Pike. I've seen her playing real-life heroines in her last two films, A Private War and Radioactive, that it's actually quite a treat to see her playing a shamelessly devious character. Marla Grayson is a piece of work …
FlixChatter Review: Sylvie’s Love (2020)

FlixChatter Review: THE DIG (2021)
When I first saw the trailer for The Dig, I was immediately intrigued as I love historical drama, even if it I'm not familiar with the Sutton Hoo excavation of 1939 that shed light into the early Anglo-Saxon period. The film begins with archaeologist Basil Brown (Ralph Fiennes, sporting a Suffolk accent) visits the home …
