I’m Back!

Not that I left for some prolonged vacation, but I had gotten less interested in blogging lately. I hadn't been reading posts from the people I follow and wasn't making any conscious efforts to get out good ones. But that's changing now! I have a month long summer vacation in June after which I'll be …

Did Jordan Peele deliver a second home-run with ‘Us’ ?

I saw Get Out quite late considering the fact that horror/thriller is my favourite genre in film. But when I did see it, I loved every bit of it. Unlike a lot of people, the movie hadn't been spoiled for me and I had no idea what to expect from it. Get Out blew me …

What’s your Christmas book/film tradition ?

Hola folks! Wishing you all a very merry Christmas! It's been a busy two months for me which is why I couldn't get a lot of posts out. But, I mean how could I not write a Christmas post, right ? For me, there's always a particular tradition associated with each holiday. There's always that …
