Bio

I' m a 29 year old who was once upon a time named Sterling, Theodore and my parents settled on Timothy Lawrence . I have what some of my friends would call an "addiction " to watching movies. Not just an addiction to watching them, but to subjecting them to my personal synopsis about the film.

I spent a lot of my formidable years without cable . It forced me to watch a lot made for TV movies and mini-series. The first I remember seeing is " V" (that hamster scene still creeps me out) . When I was blessed with HBO! I couldn' t believe they showed movies ALL DAY. One of the butt whooping I remember the most was when I ordered Mel Brook 's Spaceballs on PPV without my mother 's permission. I laughed hysterically but paid the price once she got the bill. I was scared to watch HBO after that. My next few memories of watching movies consist of me sitting uncomfortably next to my mom as we watch Jungle Fever, leaving the kid friendly Sandlot and sneaking into The Crying Game at the worst possible time, and wondering why mom wouldn' t let me go see New Jack City .

At 19 I had lost my love for movies. My mom may have beat it out of me. Whatever the case I needed a job and a local the ater needed someone to work a 2PM-10PM shift. I was their man! Once employed I started to watch all the movies I would normally watch. After about a month I saw everything I wanted to see so I sat down and watched the English Patient . I had just planned to take a nap before work, but I enjoyed myself and was surprised that I did. I left that movie with a new found love for film. I spent the next 16 months at the job watching every movie I could watch. Some bad and some good …………..I would say more bad ones than good.

In a weird way I like bad movies as much as good ones. They are so much easier to talk about. I really love watching them all! T alking about them, giving my opinion, letting my friends know why I like them or disliked them. It' s gotten to the point at work where people will come in on Mondays and want to know what I saw and if I liked it. My co-workers seem to really value what I had to say so I felt that maybe more people need to know.

I' m writing reviews because 1) I love movies 2) I love to write. I feel like our outlets for reviews sometimes may have an agenda. People often ask " Did you read the review" and I think to myself that there is no way some middle age guy who goes to bed at 9:30 is going to give that movie an honest review. If I want to go see a movie like most people I' m spending my hard earned money and would appreciate a straight answer. I have no political agenda, no big corporation filling my pockets to tell you I enjoyed a 2 hour nap with my eyes open, and I feel like I can speak for people who love movies.
