Author: Patrice Witherspoon

I am an Associate Director at a Pharma Company by day and a Film Critic by night. My bylines are available at Pop Culture Reviews, Screen Rant, Film Threat, and Cinema Debate. In my spare time, I enjoy scoffing at my sports teams and travelling; but most importantly, I love spending time with people :)
