SURVIVING SEX TRAFFICKING – Review by April Neale

March 15, 2022March 18, 2022 April Neale Alyssa Milano, Jay Jenkins, Jeannie Mai, Sadhvi Siddhali Shree, Surviving Sex Trafficking

The documentary Surviving Sex Trafficking is directed and produced by Sadhvi Siddhali Shree, with actor Alyssa Milano, Jeannie Mai of The Real, and musician Jay Jenkins as executive producers. This sobering personal account from Shree of her abuse at age six, unburied and brought up through meditation, is in part a by-product of her interviews and focus with three women specifically as the production team travels Houston, Hungary, Miami, Las Vegas, New Jersey, India, the Philippines, and Ethiopia.

BRAZEN – Review by April Neale

January 14, 2022January 18, 2022 April Neale Alyssa Milano, Brazen, netflix

When you turn on a radio station that you always listen to, you get a disorienting feeling if you discover that the station has swapped formats overnight. So it goes with Netflix, home to great true crime-inspired dramas like Unbelievable and Mind Hunter, to find out that they are wading into the Lifetime, Oxygen, or Hallmark Movies & Mysteries pool with films made for audiences who love turgid, dramatic, and soapy true crime takes that have been ripped from news headlines.
