THE SILVEY LINING: A film for the peculiar and non-peculiar alike

Tim Burton has a very distinctive directing style, which is why he’s one of my favorite directors and why this movie doesn’t disappoint. "Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children" is a story about Jacob, “Jake,” Portman, a boy in the present who finds out the bedtime stories his grandpa used to tell him growing up weren’t stories after all.

DOWNSHIFT: Hitler, Porsche and Southern California play role in production of Beetle Dune

Hitler, Porsche and Southern California. This may sound like a list of random nouns, but in actuality each one is directly responsible for the existence of the 2016 Volkswagen Beetle Dune. In 1934, Adolf Hitler commissioned Ferdinand Porsche to build a people’s car or “Volkswagen” in German.
