I didn’t expect to like “Major Movie Star”. I didn’t WANT to like it. I can’t stand Jessica Simpson, and usually I make a religious duty of avoiding all her music and movies - even her commercials!

Simpson doesn’t …

I actually just stumbled upon this movie short from 1939 while looking for something to watch on television. It’s called Yankee Doodle Goes to Town, and it’s definitely a pro-America, pro-democracy creation. It’s theme is that America continues to rise up, to defeat its foes, and that …
