The Cleaning Lady Is Getting Really Interesting


Above trailer is for the episode 8 of the Clearing Lady, a Fox crime drama, and it is proving to be a very good watching experience.  The series might have started slow, but it is building up for me as I'm now hooked on the characters and want to know what will happen next.  

If you are not familiar with it, the show is centered on Thony De La Rosa, an ex Filipina medical doctor who has traveled to US to help her son.  She finds herself working in Las Vegas.  Luca, her son, has a rare and life-threatening medical disorder, for which he needs a cutting-edge bone marrow treatment, which is only available in Las Vegas. Until she gets treatment for her son, Thony makes a living, not as a trained doctor but as a cleaning service worker, alongside her sister in law, Fiona. After Thony accidentally witnesses a serious crime and is discovered hiding by the perpetrator, Arman Morales, she's offered a job both as a cleaner and a doctor within their criminal organization that could pay well enough to help her son and her family. Crossing into a moral gray zone, Thony begins to live a double life, keeping secrets from her family, all the while cleaning up murder scenes and dodging the law.

I am Dragon

 I am Dragon is one of the most remarkable dragon fantasy movie out there.  It's a Russian low-cost production, but let that not turn you away.  It pleasantly surprised me and millions of other fans.   The cinematics were beautiful, even if there was CGI involved in parts (like when the dragon is flying) and the story combines both legend, ancient people, and their rituals as well as a bit of a fairy tale element. It has a "Beauty and the Beast" feel to it, but both richer and deeper as a story. Edward Cullin, eat your heart out because this story put out any flames the "Twilight" Saga may have sparked in my opinion. And if a girl can fall in love with a vampire and a werewolf, well... let's just say this movie is intensely more romantic without all the poor acting and long drawn out multi-movie requirement. Wonderfully done. I highly recommend this as a must-see for those who love fantasy and fantasy romance. My only regret is that I can't sh...
