  • ‘Quantum Leap’ Steps Backward into Boring: July 13th, 1985 (Episode 1) recap ⭐️⭐️ September 20, 2022
    My preview screener for the first episode of the 2022 version of the beloved TV series “Quantum Leap” come with a caveat, but there are definitely some elements that cannot be corrected by air time today. Despite the step forward of featuring an East Asian American leading man, this episode is a step backward into […]

  • Stripped Down Modernized ‘Oklahoma!’ Mostly Works September 19, 2022
    The posters for “OKLAHOMA!” that opened this week at the Ahmanson make things clear: This isn’t a bunch of White people dancing and singing. This is Rodgers and Hammerstein meets diversity of the Black and White binary. In this Bard Summerscape Production of “OKLAHOMA!” the casting leads to some fun moments, but also questionable ones. […]

  • 7 Words that Can Carry Anti-Asian Implications September 4, 2022
    This year, I’ve become increasingly disconcerted careless language usage that can support anti-Asian sentiments. I don’t see these necessarily being included on lists and I also see and hear people, including people of color, using them inappropriately. The words are:  Hippie Inscrutable Noh mask Karen Kowtow Oriental Nip, Nippy Swastika Hippie and Moohaven […]

  • Ms. Geek Speaks: Why Are We Cheering for Child Endangerment? September 3, 2022
    Scrolling through TikTok, I saw two videos by Black creators seeming to support a Black father from Atlanta who was upset about his treatment by one airline company. In his Instagram post, Christian Rose wrote, “My 2yo toddler daughter and I were removed from FRONTIER flight 1013 by authorities this morning all because she was […]

  • ‘Thirteen Lives’: An Unbalanced Look at the Thai Cave Rescue⭐️⭐️ August 18, 2022
    “Thirteen Lives” will, for most North American audiences, be a suitable retelling of the 2018 Tham Luang cave rescue, that, despite knowing the outcome, still pulls at your heartstrings thanks to the reliable sensitivity of director/producer Ron Howard. Yet William Nicholson’s screenplay does ultimately fail to give us a more rounded view of the story; […] […]

  • Falling ‘Prey’ to Urban Mindset Follies ⭐️⭐️ August 18, 2022
    ThIs week I proposed rating films by the amount of time my husband and I spend shouting at the TV screen (when streaming). “Prey” begins well, setting up the beautiful world of the Northern Great Plains Comanche in 1719 before veering into science fiction. This is a prequel to the “Predator” series with a great […]

  • Everyone’s Talking About Jamie and Jamie Talks about Himself ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ August 18, 2022
    I was in Sheffield from September 1989 to 1990 and I recall a particularly difficult exchange regarding what men and women can wear. I had taken up ice skating because my then-long-distance boyfriend in the US knew how to ice skate and someone advised me to find something I could do in the cold weather […]

  • GO: Dress up and Go to ‘The Prom’ August 18, 2022
    Did you go to your high school prom? If you want to relive some nostalgic memories or if you missed your prom and want a do-over, then get some tickets and head over to the Ahmanson for “The Prom.” Opening night, there were people who must have gotten a good prom-posal, and came dressed to […]

  • GO! ‘The Old Man in the Pool’ August 18, 2022
    Mike Birbiglia’s “The Old Man and the Pool” takes you full circle in the relationship of one man and a chlorinated pool. Although the Mark Taper Forum is surrounded by water and that in the past the Mark Taper did have a pool for one of its productions, this production won’t get you wet although […]

  • ‘Bullet Train’: Whitewash and Blackout of Japanese Characters ⭐️⭐️ August 5, 2022
    The question is: How can you have a film set in Japan and have the central characters be White or Black? “Bullet Train”* never convincingly explains this although the film’s script desperately tries.  I seriously wonder if either the director or screenwriter did due diligence in their research of Japan or just wanted an exotic […]
