Sometimes I think it’s easier to break into the Hollywood scene if your parents are already in the industry. I, myself, am not famous and I don’t have “famous” parents (although I think my mom and dad are pretty awesome). So it’s no wonder that there is a whole generation of actors that we love to watch now, only to discover that their mother and/or father are actors themselves.

Take Me Back to the 80’s (Movies, that is)
What better way to spend time with your friends and family this summer than to watch some classic movies from the 1980s.

The Timeless Beauty of Adaline
“A young woman, born at the turn of the 20th century, is rendered ageless after an accident. After many solitary years, she meets a man who complicates the eternal life she has settled into.” (Source: IMDb) Narrator: On December 31, 2014, a taxicab traveled through San Francisco, from Chinatown to Marin.

(Source: IMDb) I recently watched The Age of Adaline, and was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. Like The Curious Case of […]
