Marty Supreme Movie Review
Since their breakout in 2017, the Safdie Brothers have specialised in smaller scale films with a razor-sharp edge. Their core formula involving placing morally dubious characters in dicey yet enthralling circumstances. This time Josh Safdie has struck out on his own with Marty Supreme, another brilliant showcase of the director’s talents.

My Top 25 Favorite Songs of All Time
#1 - I'll Fall With Your Knife by Peter Murphy I got a tattoo of some of the lyrics to this song: The words, "with a broken wing you sail," embedded in the wing of a red-tailed hawk. A song about unconditional love and devotion, this one still gives me chills every time the first few notes start playing. And Peter Murphy's hauntingly baritone voice is so soothing.

Power Rangers Review: "The Power Transfer"
The second season of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers definitely featured a lot of huge moments, almost too many to count. The season started with Lord Zedd becoming the new Big Bad, and later on, Tommy Oliver's Green Ranger days were officially numbered. We wouldn't be sans Tommy for long, as he returned as the White Ranger and the new leader of the Power Rangers.

My Top 10 Favorite Coldplay Songs
#1 - Fix You, Released 2005, X&Y Album Fix You is a song that is very near and dear to my heart. I learned to play it on the guitar when I was 12 years old and it was always one of my dad's favorites. It's a beautiful yet surreal song about offering support and guidance to those in the throws of grief. While the beginning alludes to feelings of regret and emotional exhaustion, trying your best but not succeeding, by the end, we are reminded to never give up. Healing and love can always be found, even in the darkest times, just know "lights will guide you home."

Zoey's Extraodinary Playlist?
Can I be totally transparent? Yes? Okay, I haven't really been that interested in anything I have absorbed on television or the internet in years. To be quite frank, art however, subjective it always turns out to be has really been lacking for me, personally, as a viewer of the craft. Ever since the pandemic, it feels like, nothing seems to be interesting or entertaining. Everything seems almost dull or is trying a bit too hard to be something it's clearly missing the mark in.

The History of Sound
The History of Sound is a well-made, beautiful film with fine, touching performances. I defy anyone to disagree with that. It is a film that is difficult to fault. But it is also difficult to love. Ironic given that a central plot line is the difficulty of love for two young men, who should be made for each other.
