Interview With Tom Hiddleston & Marc Abraham For I Saw The Light!
The second I started my interview with writer/director Marc Abraham and actor Tom Hiddleston, it was obvious that I SAW THE LIGHT is a passion project for both of them.

BEACHES is one of my… Continue reading Interview with Catherine Hardwicke for Miss You Already

ROOM, based on Emma Donohue’s incredible, best-selling book of the same name, is an extremely powerful story that has resonated with me since I first saw it.
