Insurance agent Hutch Rimes spends a lot of time at the Sleep Easy Hotel, taking long lurid lunch breaks with a string of sexy secretaries who he hires for their "special talents". Ten years ago, one of his office honeys tried to get him to kill her abusive husband. The plan backfired when the hubby killed her by mistake, got sent up the river, and lucky Hutch made a fortune buying off a piece of his ranch. But now it's trouble time -- there's a stalker in the suburbs who wants Hutch dead. Is it the cold-blooded killer just out of jail, the jealous husband of his latest fling, or another psycho enemy he's made along the way? Steven Weber (Wings), Swoosie Kurtz (Sisters) and Gail O'Grady (NYPD Blue) star in this hilariously sinister thriller that proves the worst thing in life can also be the funniest.

Stand and Deliver is an inspirational classic from 1988 starring Edward James Olmos as Jaime Escalante, and his class of rag tag students in East Los Angeles. It’s the story of how a new teacher shows a motley group of students in the inner city with backgrounds as gang members, dishwashers, and mechanics — the power of self-determination. He teaches the teenagers to believe in themselves through algebra and calculus.
Remakes. Reboots. Reinventions. Redundancy. It's the common practice in Hollywood of late, sometimes offering us victorious reimagining of what can be considered cinematic classics while also, more often, falling flat on their UN-imaginative faces in utter defeat and lackluster results. Admittedly, with this in mind, I went into the newest incarnation of "The War of the Roses" with typical trepidation and cautious optimism.
A collection of the ten best films that captured William Shakespeare’s pathos the best, both for the diversity they bring, and of course “the aesthetic."
Life may find a way, but is it worth testing its fierceness and how far it will go?
