FTM Rewind: 24 Hours of Movies: Blaxploitation!
by Patrick Bromley Dynamite! I love blaxploitation movies. I’m not saying that to sound “woke.” I’m saying that because it’s true.

24 Hours of Movies: Bill Pullman, Part 2
by Patrick Bromley More from one of my favorite actors! Back in 2020, I programmed a 24 hour marathon of Bill Pullman movies because he’s one of my very favorite actors and I don’t feel like he gets enough credit for being as great as he is. I said at the time that I would…

24 Hours of Movies: Change of Heart
by Patrick Bromley Never give up on a movie. One of the very, very few things I like about myself is my ability to give a movie — even one I didn’t dig the first time I saw it — more chances, knowing that while a film can never change, I can (and hopefully do).…
