Warhead is a bit of a lighter episode that adds briefly to the Kallus (David Oyelowo) and Thrawn (Lars Mikkelsen) continuity but mainly allows Zeb (Steve Blum) and the droids Chopper and AP-5 (Stephen Stanton) a chance to have some action beats when they are left behind at the rebel base while the rest of…

Glengarry Glen Ross (1992) – James Foley
The star-power in this film! Al Pacino, Jack Lemmon, Alec Baldwin, Alan Arkin, Ed Harris… love it! David Mamet adapts his award winning play to the big screen, and though I’ve never seen the stage version, I imagine the punch of it is very similar, as the dialogue are crisp and sharp as we dive…
