We’re back with a new platform and some very old features including the long-awaited return of Director’s Lottery (this times it’s Otto Preminger’s “Anatomy of a Murder”), and a new set of B-sides. Join us as we dive into Viola Davis’ Oscar-winning performance in “Fences”, Janelle Monáe’s utterly winning character […]
