    Vote for April 2022’s Movie of the Month, franchise special!

    It’s time to vote for April’s Movie of the Month! As has become tradition, for April we like to celebrate movie franchises, and this year is no different, except in the ways that it is. At the request of some of this year’s franchise champions we’ve widened the definition of a franchise, so amongst this year’s picks we have a loose thematic trilogy made by the same...

    Acting School 101 – March 2022 Introduction – Rachel Weisz

    Welcome Back Students!

    Rob from MovieRob here!

    I think that this 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 calendar month.

    Obviously, there are thousands upon...

    The Movie of the Month for March 2022 is…

    The vote has been cast and the results are in for March’s Movie of the Month! Five very different films were nominated, there can be only one winner and, given that it’s Oscar season, it seems only fitting that March’s winner is also a Best Picture nominee. That’s right, for March 2022 we’ll be talking about… The Conversation!
