Spontaneous - Movie Review
The Movie: Spontaneous
The Director: Brian Duffield
The Cast: Katherine Langford, Charlie Plummer, Hayley Law, Piper Perabo, Rob Huebel, Yvonne Orji.
The Story: Get ready for the outrageous coming-of-age love story about growing up...and blowing up. When students in their school begin exploding (literally), seniors Mara and Dylan struggle to survive in a world where each moment may be their last.
Yellow Rose - Movie Review and Podcast Interview
The Movie: Yellow Rose
The Director: Diane Paragas
The Cast: Eva Noblezada, Princess Punzalan, Dale Watson, Libby Villari and
Lea Salonga
The Story: Rose, an undocumented 17 year old Filipina, dreams of one day
leaving her small Texas town to pursue her country music dreams. Her world
is shattered when her mom suddenly gets picked up by Immigration and Customs
Enforcement.
The Verdict:
Yellow Rose is a beautiful movie that has a ton of heart, is filled
with memorable songs, and features a knock out performance from Eva
Noblezada. Diane Paragas' message of hope and resilience strikes right
into the heart of our current political climate while taking nothing away
from the experience of great cinematic storytelling.
