Netflix's hit show OUTER BANKS was renewed for season four last week and it's no surprise why. With a legion of loyal fans and a killer season three, I was so excited to hear that we will get more Pogue content... and hopefully a majority of that will be of the :ahem: shipping variety. Season… Continue reading TV Interview: Madelyn Cline and Madison Bailey for Outer Banks!
I first saw THE SON at the London Film Festival a few months ago and haven't been able to shake several scenes from the movie ever since. Written and directed by Florian Zeller, who won a Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar for his incredible film THE FATHER, the film is based off of Zeller's play. It… Continue reading Interview: Florian Zeller for THE SON
Netflix's new spy series THE RECRUIT is an entertaining, thrilling take on the spy genre. Instead of focusing on a case officer, the series follows Owen (Noah Centineo) a newly hired CIA lawyer that immediately gets in over his head. Fresh out of law school, he is tasked to handle the agency's "graymail," or the… Continue reading Interview: Laura Haddock for The Recruit

I see no better representation of… Continue reading Movie Review/Interview: Guillermo Del Toro’s Pinocchio
I don't know how to tell you this, but TOP GUN: MAVERICK is better than the original TOP GUN. I know that may surprise you, but I seriously cannot believe what an amazingly entertaining experience MAVERICK will bring to audiences. As a diehard movie fan, this was almost a religious experience. From the rumble of the… Continue reading Top Gun Maverick Review and Interview with Glen Powell and Greg Tarzan Davis
DOWNTON ABBEY: A NEW ERA, is not only one of the best in the entire series, it is one of my favorite movies so far this year! Written by Julian Fellowes, with the entire ensemble cast returning, A NEW ERA is just the type of heartwarming, funny, feel-good movie we need at a time like… Continue reading Downton Abbey: A New Era- Review and Elizabeth McGovern Interview
Because of COVID-19, it been a long time... too long... since I have had the opportunity to conduct an in-person interview with actors and crew members, my favorite part of this gig. So I was super excited to get the opportunity to discuss Hulu's upcoming series DOPESICK with members of the cast (Will Poulter, Peter… Continue reading Interview: The Cast of Dopesick
I always enjoy interviewing actors who are clearly excited and proud of their film, and that was very obvious when I spoke to Ed Skrein and Luke Kleintank for MIDWAY. Their performances paid tribute to real heroes Dick Best and Clarence Dickinson who fought in the Pacific during WWII. The actors' dedication to portraying the… Continue reading Interview With MIDWAY Stars Ed Skrein & Luke Kleintank
Two weeks ago, I couldn't believe that I was walking into a fancy hotel on my way to interview John Travolta for his new film THE FANATIC, written and directed by Fred Durst. I have been a fan of Travolta's since I was a kid. Unbeknownst to him, we have had many a duet... me as… Continue reading Interview: John Travolta for The Fanatic
