Grace and Frankie
(2015)

Incredible writing and acting
I wonder if they are going to pay Lilly extra for playing a straight person! Why wouldn't they given that they pay the men extra to play gay parts. Why is there a difference.

The show is absolutely fabulous and poignant. I particular live the character of Bud this season. They have really developed all the characters more and I am so looking forward to the next season.

I'd love to see more cameos like with Francis and others. I'd also love to see more dynamic between Lilly and Jane like last year. There is such an eloquent and raw dynamic being portrayed between these women. It's fun to watch and thought provoking. Thank you to writers for the creation!

Miles Ahead
(2015)

Such a Shame
Unfortunately, this movie really missed the mark. It seemed from the credits that there was an opportunity to use archive footage of Miles' life which was only used sparsely.

The actors did a great job, but the movie launched right into all of Miles' life challenges, his down fall points and never showed how her started, no context of his life and the many years that led up to his addictions. And, then, only five minutes or so at the end showing his "come back." It left me in disbelief that he died of the conditions cited--curious if he actually died of a drug over dose, or if conditions were related to his life style choices.

The man was a genius and I wouldn't want to see a sugar coated version of it, but surely there was something positive to share and an integration of actual footage of his life--would have made it all more believable.

I'm really sorry that I went. I almost walked out several times and did not because I didn't want to offend anyone else in the theater.
