Letter To The Editor: Something Has Changed And It’s Not The Gun
By White Rock Resident
I’ve written about this subject before, but last night I noticed something that seemed to support my opinion even more.
Last night I watched The Silence of the Lambs (1991). I’ve seen this movie before but there was something I noticed this time. During the gun scenes, the vast majority of the FBI agents were carrying revolvers. I did see what appeared to be a submachine gun in one scene, and a couple wooden stock bolt action sniper rifles. But I did not see one single AR style rifle.

Cinema Cindy Reviews: Love & Friendship
By CYNTHIA BIDDLECOMB“Love and Friendship” is based on an unpublished 1790 novella called “Lady Susan” and written by Jane Austen (later author of Pride and Prejudice) when she was 18 years old.
Austen composed the story through a series of letters; in the movie the texts of these letters serve as the basis for long conversational expositions, thanks to screenwriter Whit Stillman. The action of the film takes place around 1790.
