The Talk of the Town, by Albert W. Vogt III

Today, I took another step towards seeing every Cary Grant film.  I would have viewed The Talk of the Town (1942) sooner, but I had yet to come across it in my streaming services scrolling.  The only thing that gave me pause is its runtime of nearly two hours.  What overrides my concern over its…

Identity Thief, by Albert W. Vogt III

Love heals.  Though I do not wish to be stereotypical, one can often find that those who run afoul of the law or participate in some other deviant behavior experience a lack of genuine care and concern at some point in their lives.  There will be those who reject what I am about to say,…
