Why I Love ... Sarah Polley

Yet, there's one woman enjoying an equally exciting year who has remained characteristically low-key about it all: Sarah Polley. Polley has been acting for years, from the TV series Road to Avonlea to off-beat films like Read more

Away From Her: Poignant But Not Sappy

I went into the Away From Her movie screening with a stack of tissues, fully prepared to bawl my eyes out over this story about a marriage being tested by Alzheimer's. Yet the sobfest never happened. The story is mostly sad, it's true, but it is also realistically told and casts an unapologetic light on each character. So while there is great sympathy for them, the movie never cycles through Read more

The Bachelorette Week Two Recap

Week two on The Bachelorette brought plenty of action, and I'm not just talking about the chemistry between Emily and Kermit — though that was slightly uncomfortable. No, I'm referring to the first one-on-one dates, the first group date, and all the poolside drama. It looks like we've got a veritable Real Housewives of Charlotte on our hands, only in this case the housewives are men and Botox Read more

Should I Make a Will?

Grey's Anatomy "Flight" Season Finale Recap

It's hard for me to even write this recap because I'm so mad at Grey's Anatomy right now. The death of a major character in the season finale has been teased for weeks, but it's not left until the episode's final moments. In fact, it happens in the first 20 minutes, and once it does, it's hard to focus on anything else. I'll save my spoilers for below the break, but this is definitely one of Read more
