Christmas At Graceland: Home For The Holidays
Read more: Christmas At Graceland: Home For The HolidaysMy career with Ruthless has been a good one with many high-water marks like Midnight Cowboy and my Christmas Movie reviews and related articles.

It’s a Wonderful Life (1947)
Read more: It’s a Wonderful Life (1947)It’s a Wonderful Life (1947) I rarely review movies that I genuinely detest, but I’m making an exception in this case.
