Gathr - Buzz Talk & News

I could be watching movies over the long weekend, but I'll probably be going a hundred miles out of my way to help my brother move because it's the only chance I'll have to see another brother for months. (Shakes fist at sky) So, I probably won't s...

Quiet week, what with being busy at work and having a good chunk of my weekend claimed. Not particularly complaining, mind you: There have been weeks at work when I have worried I'm not doing enough to be kept on, and the weekend was a chance to...

I must admit... I was kind of surprised to be greeted at the screening for Hide Your Smiling Faces with a comment about how I was there for the last hurrah, if only because they had charged my credit card for another three months of membership just...

I missed one Gathr preview series during the sci-fi festival, and I was actually kind of disappointed about that one; Adult World with John Cusack, Emma Roberts, and Cloris Leachman looked like it could be entertaining. On the other hand, that was t...

Was it a bit weird to come to the Regent on Monday for the screening? Well, not really; that's actually when it was held at the start. I will say, though, that it was weird to get into the auditorium and find people... Well, not actually in my se...

My subscription to the Gathr Preview Series runs out in mid-March (not bad for a three-month membership purchased in September; cancellations and skip weeks must have caught up), and I must admit that at this point I'm not certain whether I will rene...

Before the movie, the folks at the Regent asked if I had any pull with the Gathr people, so that they could get something a little more upbeat in the series - Summer in February was admittedly a downer and this sort of movie can be a hard sell as wel...

Indication that it's a new year: The desk calendar fits differently on the scanner. First full week in work and otherwise on a regular schedule in over a month, which was in some ways tough getting used to an in some ways reassuring; it was sort...

Tuesday night was among the coldest we've had in this area in a while, so let me tell you, being let into the theater a full half hour before the movie started was much appreciated. It was an interesting movie, although as it went on, I was kind of...

If I were really clever and writing fast enough to get the review of A Touch of Sin up while there was a little more left of it's brief run at the Brattle, it might have been a good idea to compare and contrast the two. Both movies, after all, are s...

Two weeks this time, because I didn't have a lot of time for writing while on vacation. Nor necessarily a lot of time for seeing movies, for that matter, but I saw a lot of other stuff. 9 December 2013 - 15 December 2013 16 December 2013 - 22 Decem...

Since the Regent isn't primarily a film venue - and even if it was, these screenings don't necessarily pack the house - December looks like it's wound up being full of conflicts. During the first week of the month, an event later in the week needed...

I'm writing this on my way home from my own trip home for Thanksgiving, a pretty quick circuit to Portland, Maine to see my Dad, his wife, and her kids & grandkids, my brothers all being at their respective wives' families' gatherings. That's co...

It's a good week for a movie blogger when there's reason to write about what interests you and be reasonably curtabout what doesn't. This week, for instance, there wasn't a whole to say about the first thing I saw, Monday's About Time, that necess...

Can you tell baseball season's over and the fall TV slate is uninspiring by the sheer volume of tickets on this page? Stubless: Inside Llewyn Davis, Brattle Theatre, 7 November 2013, 7:30pm Kind of busy. and that's using Wednesday to hit the co...
