After Yang

John Stark

Where I Watched it: iTunes English Audio Description provided By: Deluxe Narrated by: Darren polish This is one of those films i actually attempted to watch without audio description earlier in the year on Showtime, but it became abundantly clear to me really fast that this film was unwatchable without audio description. I still believe that, even after enjoying it with Darren’s narration.

When Hillbilly Elegy got middling reviews (and Razzie nominations), I stood up for the film because the performances by Glenn Close and Amy Adams were really freaking good. But, despite hooking in some of the biggest and most respected actors working right now, … Continue reading 13 Lives

I’m not crazy enough to review 10 films before Monday, so I’ll have to do the Harry Potter films at … Continue reading Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them
