CinemaWAR: What is a better courtroom movie – The People v. Larry Flynt or A Few Good Men?
Sponsored by: Cards Against Humanity
Our wrap up of 2018 continues with our Top 5 Female Performances of the year. 2018 was one HELL of a year in film. Perhaps the very best in CinemaJaw history. This week we take a look at the women who gave film performances that helped make this past year what it is.
Joining us is a woman who loves to examine film from the feminine perspective. Pamela Powel has been on the film beat for nearly a decade. With shows on radio, television and the internet, she is a true voice in film criticism. We are proud to call her a friend of the show!
We are sure that with so many outstanding performances this past year, we are bound to miss some of your faves. Write us at feedback@cinemajaw.com and let us know what we missed. We always engage and often read our emails on the show.
Cheers!
