Situated on the Texas-Louisiana is Caddo Lake, it’s the single (and only) naturally formed lake in the Lone Star State. Inspired by a photograph, filmmakers Celine Held and Logan George collaborated to write and direct Caddo Lake a turbulent tale about family. Legendary director M. Night Shyamalan had involvement as an executive producer on the film and the narrative subtly shows
Read MoreFor me, the release of Superman & Lois season 4 was one of the most awaited pop culture events this year. Many fans already consider it one of the best live-action projects about Superman. For the past few years, Tyler Hoechlin’s performance as Clark Kent/Superman showed perfectly the most famous superhero’s superhuman strength and human vulnerability. Season 4 is the last season
Read MoreI had the opportunity to interview Celine Held and Logan George (writer/director duo) to talk about their upcoming MAX movie, Caddo Lake.
