Interview: Directors/Writer/Star of "Desperate Acts of Magic"

Star Trek: Into Darkness
This time, there's crying in "Star Trek."  And some very significant time on Earth as well.  This story is in the most literal sense, close to home. Writer-director J.J. Abrams, who rebooted Gene Roddenberry's original "Star Trek" saga with a rousing 2009 origin story prequel now takes us clos

Interview: Candace Cameron Bure of "Finding Normal"
It was great to catch up with Candace Cameron Bure to hear about her new film, "Finding Normal," premiering this week on GMC-TV.  She plays a brilliant type-A surgeon who is completely focused on status and her career until she gets stuck in a small town and sees a different way of life. What i
