Published on Friday, December 9, 2011 by Caryn Bailey As for New York City, it is a place apart. There is not its match in any other country in the world. Pearl S. Buck New York City is one of my favorite cities in the world...glitzy and glamourous...whimsical and sentimental...contemporary yet historic.

War Horse Premieres in New York City
Published on Thursday, December 8, 2011 by Caryn Bailey Somewhere during my teen years, our smallish family of three made it a tradition to see a movie on Christmas Day. We'd wake up early, grab breakfast (out, of course) and head to the theater for that film...that much anticipated holiday film of the season. This year, I expect War Horse to be that film.

Octavia Spencer…On Her Role in The Help
Published on Sunday, August 21, 2011 by Caryn Bailey Very few films touch me so deeply, that I want to go out and change the world (or at least attempt to).

I was warned to bring tissues...a box of them. And while I definite... Read More » -
