Sometimes in Life<br />
Starring: Sara Stepnicka, Eric Morrison,<br />
Jon E. Livernois<br />
When what you’ve been doing is no<br />
longer working, where do you go from<br />
here? Such is the question<br />
of Sometimes in Life, an<br />
<br />
two very different people<br />
– fashion designer,<br />
<br />
photographer, Rob –<br />
<br />
at an impasse in<br />
their personal lives.<br />
Jill (Stepnicka)<br />
has begun to feel an<br />
unwelcome cooling in<br />
her romantic relationship and<br />
Morrison) father<br />
recently passed and the reality gives<br />
<br />
self-destructive behaviors. As both run<br />
from pillar to post in their confusion and<br />
frustration, their paths serendipitously<br />
cross and a new, surprising friendship is<br />
formed – one that gives Jill the strength to<br />
acknowledge what she’s known all along<br />
and stand up for herself, and gives Rob<br />
the moral support he needs to make some<br />
very important changes in his life.<br />
The Facts of Life Go<br />
to Paris & Season2<br />
Starring: <br />
Welchel, Nancy McKeon, Mindy<br />
<br />
This is my second attempt at writing<br />
a review for this movie, because<br />
<br />
“OMGWTFBBQ!?!” After ION’s<br />
publisher told me he doesn’t pay me to<br />
DVD Movie Review<br />
write crap, I had to go back to the drawing<br />
board. But seriously – OMGWTFBBQ!?!<br />
When I was growing up in the 1980s, I<br />
never once watched The Facts of Life.<br />
I was too busy dressing like Punky<br />
Brewster and hanging out my father’s<br />
basement in Toledo trying to build<br />
my own Small Wonder to give<br />
a crap about the adventures<br />
of Squinty, Blondie, Butch,<br />
Brace-Face, and their<br />
headmistress, Ginger Midget<br />
(The correct character name<br />
and actor is listed in the<br />
order referenced by the writer:<br />
Natalie/Cohn, Blaire/Welchel,<br />
Jo/McKeon, Tootie/Fields, and<br />
Mrs. Garrett/Rae. – Ed.) But now<br />
that I’m all grown up and have learned<br />
the hard way that you cannot make a robot<br />
using a mannequin and two AA batteries,<br />
<br />
spent.<br />
