History and Lessons behind Norma Rae aka Crystal Lee
How closely should film adaptations follow their source material? Let's take a deep dive into "Norma Rae", and find out.
Something Borrowed
Something Borrowed is a dark romantic comedy about the disastrous, deeply sincere lengths people are willing to go to for love. On the morning of her wedding, Dani returns home bleeding from a botched robbery meant to fund her future. As she tries to hide the true nature of the attempt from both her co-conspiring maid of honor and her out-of-the-loop groom-to-be, panic escalates, secrets unravel, and every bad decision compounds the next as the clock ticks toward “I do.” Equal parts absurd and heartfelt, the film explores what happens when the American Dream feels just out of reach and desperation starts to look like devotion. Something Borrowed is messy, ridiculous, and kind of romantic — a wedding-day farce about love, survival, and caring just a little too hard with a loaded weapon.

Dramatic Horror!!! Wait, what?? Did you say "dramatic horror"?? IS there such a thing?? I mean, TRULY. Well, if San Francisco-based, Pakistani-born independent filmmaker Dr. Hassan Zee and this film critic have anything to say about it, there IS such a beast as experienced through the director's newest feature film set to officially debut October 4th in the City by the Bay. Folks, indie film will always be a bastion of experimentation and originality, and this film for me fits that bill.
