"The Drop" is worth checking out. Bob, played by Tom Hardy, is a bartender in Brooklyn. His partner, Marv, played by James Gandolfini, and Bob thinks things are ok in their bar because of their loyal customers and the system they have. The system of "dropping" money to lical gangsters seems to be working fine until a robbery occurs. Bob and Marv are targeted and they need to make sure they can protect themselves and their bar. While this is happening Bob adopts a dog and makes friends with a woman named Nadia, played by Noomi Ropace.

This film is worth watching because of the twists and great cast. This film keeps you on the edge of your seat because you are waiting for something exciting to happen and it does. It is an erry, dark but exciting gangster movie. James Gandolfini is great in this film because of his brash raw attitude, and we could really see how emotional he gets on screen. Noomi Ropace was a great addition to this film because if how innocent she really is. Tom Hardy's character was very timid and you were waiting for him to finally show a vast amount of emotion throughout but you are satisfied by the end. This film is worth checking out.

Grade = 84/100 = B

"The Graduate" is a Classic

I finally watched one of the best films ever made, "The Graduate." This film is one of the best directed, best edited, best acted, best written, and best shot selection I have seen in any film. Mike Nichols is one of the best directors of all time because of how we get sucked into a scene, and make us feel like we are there with the fact that the camera does not move and cut to a different scene for a long periods of time. I could spend on hours on talking about the symbolism in this film because there are countless amounts, and it is great to see a film that is amazing because of the hard work that was done to make it so amazing.

Here is a great scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahFARm2j38c

Everyone go watch it.

R.I.P. Joan Rivers

It is very sad to see Joan Rivers go because she was one of the funniest people on the planet. She was not afraid to push the ante, and that was why she was so loved by everyone. It is also unfortunate how she has left us. She will be missed.
