Submitted by PatrickMcD on February 7, 2016 - 1:32pmCHICAGO – One of the truest aphorisms ever uttered is that “you can take a person out of a small town, but you can’t take the small town out of them.” Veteran novelist, TV/film writer and now director Adriana Trigiani took that eternal truth and created a film tribute to her heritage in “Big Stone Gap” (2015). Loyola University in Chicago will have a special screening of the film, with an appearance by Ms. Trigiani afterward (via Skype), on Monday, February 8th, 2016 (details below).
Film Review: Hard to Wrap Head Around Misguided ‘Mental’
Submitted by BrianTT on March 27, 2013 - 1:38pmCHICAGO – Despite boasting the talented efforts of the always-great and tragically underrated Toni Collette, P.J.
