A Reel Take: Boys (Jongens)

Boys the Film

The film was originally created for television and this doesn’t show at all, it’s far from the content that i remember seeing as a young teenager watching after school specials. In many ways the “made-­for-­TV” feeling of the […]

Madonna Rebel Heart

I still remember the first time I saw the video for “Borderline” on Friday Night videos in the early 1980’s. I was entranced both by the music and Madonna. That song is still very special to me. I would always want to find that video if I opened a lucky door. It was that good […]
