Aka ‘Ex-boyfriend’s Recipe’—and, no, I did not make that up.

“Mermaid’s Jade” Movie Review

“Your Name Engraved Herein” Movie Review
I am not a big fan of movies in general when compared to shows, because I always feel that the time constraints impose limitations on how much of a story can be told; most movies tend to fall short on doing justice to all the characters and subplots they introduce.
