    …it’s only a Paper Moon…”

    …the story of how a Great Depression era adventure tale, a wildly popular bonafide 70’s movie star, and his preciously precocious eight year old daughter came together to craft one of the most charming films I’ve ever had the pleasure of viewing. It’s 1973’s Paper Moon, directed by ascot clad Peter Bogdonavich, based on the…

    “Where Everybody Knows Your Name…”

It’s Superman: The Movie, starring CHRISTOPHER REEVE (not Marlon Brando as the opening credits would lead you to be believe.) The amount of energy, time, and mental fortitude I’ve put towards discovering every piece of attainable information…
