Before I get into the review itself, I want to do what I can to make sure you’re prepared for this movie. I’ve been excited for Killers of the Flower Moon for a long time now. Scorsese is a true master of the medium and has been for fifty (yes that is FIVE-ZERO) years now….
You most likely haven’t heard of Flora and Son and if you’re reading this review, unfortunately it seems that the movie is no longer available in theaters. That’s not an indication of the quality of this one though. Heck, I love John Carney movies and by the time I realized it was out in theaters,…
The discussion around Martin Scorsese’s comments on comic book movies often misunderstands the director’s intent. He advocates for more inclusion of non-comic book movies in theaters, not for the cessation of superhero films.

It’s weird to see movies pop up about what I still consider to be fairly recent events, especially of ones that happened during the pandemic, but Dumb Money has been on my radar for a while now. For anyone that may be unaware, Dumb Money is about the entire Gamestop (GME) saga that occurred in…
Okay so reviewing Barbie in late September when it has been out since almost mid-July is definitely a call, but something also just feels right about this movie being my first review here on Screen Love Affair. I’ll start out with the obvious face that at first glance you might assume that I’m not necessarily…
Hello and thank you for checking out our little corner of the internet! My name is Shea and I’m the creator of Screen Love Affair. What exactly is Screen Love Affair? Well I wanted to create a space for me and my friends to share our passion about the things we love and yes, generally…
