Ashley Audrain is a talent. I loved The Push and couldn't wait to read her latest.
The Whispers doesn't break new storytelling ground. A domestic drama that lifts the veil on an idyllic wealthy suburb that's thrown into turmoil when a young boy falls out of a window, threatening not only his life but the secrets of the adults around him.

It's an easy read, sure, but it's gripping and some moments riddled me with anxiety. But, hey, marriage and parenting are tough so it's all on brand.

These two Chicago-based film critics taught me so much about filmmaking and film criticism and introduced me to a plethora of movies and talent in front and behind the camera that still influence me and my career to this day. Every page made me nostalgic for those nights when I'd stay up late to watch them argue, sometimes harshly, over the latest movie releases. Siskel was particularly mean but I love the guy.
Matt Singer captured the experience of watching Siskel & Ebert; their wit, passion and rivalry and conveyed their importance to film, which sadly has been minimized.…
Once upon a time, if you wanted to know if a movie was worth seeing, you didn’t check out Rotten Tomatoes or IMDB.
You asked whether Siskel & Ebert had given it “two thumbs up.”
On a cold Saturday afternoon in 1975, two men (who had known each other for eight years before they’d ever exchanged a word) met for lunch in a Chicago pub. Gene Siskel was the film critic for the Chicago Tribune. Roger Ebert had recently won the Pulitzer Prize—the first ever awarded to a film critic—for his work at the Chicago Sun-Times. To say they despised…
