“Spider-Man: Far From Home” was Great & Other Mid-Summer Musings

As we head into those halcyon summer days which come with the month of August, I just wanted to drop in to let you know I am still here. Granted, I am a couple of teeth down, thanks to a dental emergency.

As far as chronicling my film journey goes, without question, July is a bust. Which sucks because it started out with so much promise. But due to my medical needs, it had to take a backseat.

But have no fear – not all is lost. Here are a couple of key highlights:

Spider-Man: Far From Home

It has been nearly a month, but July kicked off in some high flying and entertaining fashion. The latest installment of the MCU, felt like well-earned coda to the spectacularly epic events of Avengers: Endgame.

LINDA RONSTADT: The Sound of My Voice

Every year, I take a look at the Tribeca Film Festival programming guide and find a few films which stand out as “must-see.” It’s a sure bet that a documentary about one of my favorite vocalists would be on the list.

LINDA RONSTADT: The Sound of My Voice, directed by Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman allows Ronstadt to tell the story of her life in her own voice. As I mentioned in my review of Rocketman (which yes, is a feature, so not exactly the same), autobiographies on screen can provide a mixed result in terms of my overall satisfaction. The Sound of My Voice did end up tipping in the favorable column however. Allow me to elaborate.
