Yankee Doodle Cricket
(1975) A Non-Review by Professor Popinjay [See that date up there? That’s when this film was made. My wife requested it. That shall henceforth be present for all eternity. I know I sometimes attach it to the title of the article but that’s usually to differentiate it from similarly named…

Words by Heart
A Non-Review by Professor Popinjay This non-review isn’t rife with jocularity so feel free to skip it if you’re looking for hoots. If you’re interested in knowing of a good movie, please read on. I’ve not been looking forward to this write-up. The movie was great. It had a lot…

Wild Robot (The)
A Non-Review by Professor Popinjay This is a film for parents. More so if you’re adoptive parents. Or foster parents. Or step parents. This is a film for my wife. She is a step mother. I saw this film through her eyes. I must say I wasn’t expecting talking animals…
