In 1969, Hillary Rodham (soon to be Clinton) went to Alaska (Valdez, to be exact), to slime fish. It’s a surprisingly true story – as told by Clinton in her 2017 memoir “What Happened” – and it’s the seed from which the film When I’m a Moth grows. Now, the film isn’t interested in offering […]

Billie Piper is a great actress. With Rare Beasts, her feature film writing and directorial debut, it appears she also has solid directorial chops as well – although her script leaves a bit to be desired.
