  • True enthusiasm and joy for movies

    Rachel works so hard to see a wide variety of movies, from blockbusters to indies to TV movies, and shares her expert opinions on them all. A warm and inviting critic, I’ve always loved her strong voice and personality. When you get a recommendation from Rachel you know just what you’re in for, a meaningful story with fun characters and probably a lot of love. So glad she has a podcast too!
