Star Pick with Justin Paul Kelly
Just this past weekend, I was lucky enough to interview Justin Paul Kelly at the eleventh edition of CAPE – or the Cornwall and Area Pop Event. For those of you who have young kids at home, you’ll immediately know his cadence, for Justin was the voice of Paw Patrol’s Chase from 2018-2023 – encompassing an impressive 129 episodes, as well as voicing the role in several tv movies (including Paw Patrol: Jet to the Rescue and Paw Patrol: Super Rescue). As for something more related to adult viewing, Justin had a ten episode arc as Harlan on season two of the Netflix superhero series The Umbrella Academy (2019-2024).

Cuckoo’s Nest a Classic Film
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's NestFebruary 23, 2014We are now less than one week away from the Academy Awards and I thought it would be a good time to visit one of the biggest Oscar winning movies of the 1970's – the classic 1975 motion picture One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest – which took home five of the biggest prizes; namely, Best Picture (a young Michael Douglas won for producing the movie), Best Actor in a Leading Role, Best Actress in a Leading Role, Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay.

Hoffman a True Talent
CapoteFebruary 9, 2014In this second week of looking at some of the best Oscar winning movies and performances of all-time, I must once again begin an article with a melancholic note as another Hollywood great, Philip Seymour Hoffman, passed away last week at the age of forty-six. The talented character actor was able to bring forth complex, varied and nuanced performances throughout his career, with his Oscar winning role of Truman Capote, in the 2005 movie Capote, being a perfect depiction of his amazing talents.
