If you aren’t watching RECTIFY, you should be. The original series created by Georgia native, Ray McKinnon, airs Mondays at 10p on The Sundance Channel.
After 19 years on Georgia’s Death Row for the rape and murder of his teenage girlfriend, Daniel Holden is released after new DNA evidence is discovered. Having spent his adult life waiting to die, Daniel must now learn how to live again in a world he no longer knows. But, his reentry into the outside world may be as unforgiving as prison. As he struggles to adapt to his new life, his return will reignite the fears of a small town and threaten to shatter his family’s fragile peace. Daniel’s alleged crime divided a community. His freedom could tear it in half. RECTIFY is filmed in Griffin, Georgia.
Macon native, True Blood & The Good Wife star Carrie Preston‘s ‘chick flick with balls’ That’s What She Said premieres this week on Showtime. If you didn’t see it last year at Sundance Film Festival or Macon Film Festival, rectify that and be sure to tune in.
The Great Gatsby remake a bright, sparkly Big Hollywood Picture with very interesting visual effects. Certainly this film will get Oscar nominations for Costume Design & Set Design. They are Brilliant!
However … Robert Redford & Mia Farrow will always be Gatsby & Daisy to me.
