    The Movie of the Month for September 2017 is…

    The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon!

    Another month, another movie poll for that month’s movie of discussion. It was a fairly uneventful poll this month, with one film taking a slight lead and maintaining it throughout, but all the others performing admirably as competition.

    Acting School 101 – September Introduction – Paul Walker

    Welcome Back Students!

    Rob from MovieRob here!

    Like The Director’s Chair series being run by Tony, I think that this reignited series is a great way to get a look at what the members of the Lamb community think about the work of some of the most prolific actors/actresses who have been entertaining us all for so many years.

    I plan to try and focus on an actor or actress every month who has a birthday in that given...

    The Movie of the Month for August 2017 is…

    The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon!
