King Dork
I can’t say that I’m all that familiar with Young Adult literature past or present. So I was a bit shocked to keep running across f-words and sex scenes in Frank Portman’s debut novel King Dork. Yeh, I know, I should probably read those Judy Blume books on my shelf. Or maybe I should have taken my nose out of all those comic books when I was younger. (more…)
Given the director (Napolean Dynamite), the writers (Napolean Dynamite, School of Rock) and the star (Heat Vision and Jack), what could one expect but an innocent (childish almost) romp from this movie about a friar who turns to Mexican wrestling to provide salad for orphans?
