Book Club - When Old Ladies Discover Fifty Shades

Books may not be popular today but friendship and family does. But what happens when you bring together four elderly women meeting regularly then they came across 50 Shades Of Grey as their book of the week? We have a interesting yet small Book Club that will release their inner goddesses and will try to change their lives. 

The film cast includes four Oscar winners: Diane Keaton, Jane Fonda, Mary Steenburgen, and Richard Dreyfuss; and two Oscar nominees: Candice Bergen and Andy Garcia. Thus it can be expected that they won't disappoint in their roles.  Interestingly many of the actors have worked together in many projects yet after years of decades, they found themselves working together again, example of which are Andy Garcia and Diane Keaton were part of The Godfather.

The film takes on a sexy-comedy at some parts yet it does not follow the pattern of exaggeration done by other films. This brings realism to the movie and makes them similar to real life women of their age. It's like a family movie, with some parts not for kids. This is most likely perfect for Titas or Lolas who will relate to some of its throwback joke references.

REEL DEAL: Anne Hathaway Starret "SONG ONE" Helms By First-Time Director Kate Barker-Froyland

The music came before the images in the upcoming endearing romantic movie “Song One” starring Anne Hathaway directed by Kate Barker-Froyland who also worked as an assistant to the director in “Devil Wears Prada.”

“Song One” tells the story of how music connects and transforms people.  Anne Hathaway brings a soulful characterization of Franny in the movie where she plays an anthropologist doing research in Morocco and returns to New York when her brother Henry (Ben Rosenfield), a young musician, suffers an accident that leaves him comatose.  Being emotionally and geographically distant from Henry and their mom Karen (Mary Steenburgen), Franny finds herself reconnected to her family and begins to understand and appreciate the depth of her brother’s commitment to music.  She eventually sought out the performers and venues that Henry loved, in the course of her quest, she meets James Forester (Johnny Flynn), Henry’s idol whose success and fame belie a shy and private man.  Soon, a strong romantic connection sparks between Franny and James, set against the backdrop of Brooklyn’s modern-folk music scene.
