Upon first glance, Mad Max: Fury Road seems out of place amongst its fellow best picture nominees. There?s no biographical dramatization, no outspoken activist star. There?s not even a subtitle in sight. But there is flame-spewing punk rock guitarist chained to a...
Anyone following the latest round of Presidential endorsements can attest: politics makes strange bedfellows. Apparently, so does filmmaking (think Clint Eastwood/Jim Carrey in The Deadpool, director Leonard Nimoy/Ted Danson, Tom Selleck/Steve Guttenberg in Three Men...
