Pepe Token Power Up

Every whistleblower faces a dilemma, often to the point of seeing their lives destroyed. This 1999 film recreates a real case from the American press. ! [SPOILER] Dr. Wigand loses his job at one of...
Daily Prompt | Carriage
Mr. K had been traveling for nearly 6 hours, not so much because of the distance but because of the constant stops in a country longer than it is wide. At every stop, the story repeated itself: wom...
[Movie] Before I go to sleep (2014)
Before I Go to Sleep (2014) It's genuinely satisfying to see how some Hollywood actresses act as a kind of "guarantee" of quality. I'm not talking about Oscar-winning or critically acclaimed films....
