There is no closure to Beasts of the Southern Wild, nothing to hold on to that I felt was satisfying. I love the fire and the passion it must have taken for Zeitlin and Alibar to bring the film to life, but that wasn’t enough as far as I was concerned.
I don’t have a lot that’s positive to say about Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter.
Brave is, in a word, beautiful, and I will just leave things at that.
Safety Not Guaranteed is not your normal time travel comedy/drama/romance/mystery hybrid.
While not without faults, this feminist take on the classic Grimm tale is undeniably bewitching, and of 2012’s dueling adaptations, both of which ended up worthy of my attention, Snow White and the Huntsman is the fairest of the duo and the one I look forward to revisiting in the future.

Jean Cocteau’s Beauty and the Beast is a true classic in every sense of the word.
