Naomi Etienne

Naomi is a writer through and through. She enjoys spending her days living by her pen (well, almost) and watching characters as well as stories unfold on film. Naomi graduated with a B.A. in English at the University of Utah in 2014. Her favorite class was on the study of Alfred
Hitchcock films, where she was introduced to the history of film, film noir, and black and white films.

Freeze Frame: The Lovely Bones (2009)

by Naomi Etienne

Foreign Shores: Kites (2010)

by Naomi Etienne

The story is also about two people who fall in love and have to somehow, against all these odds, find a way back to each other—no matter what that entails.

‘American Sniper’ hits the Heart

by Naomi Etienne

The story itself has a good balance between the man and the soldier.

From the Vault: Searching for Bobby Fischer (1993)

by Naomi Etienne

The film sets out to show us that Josh can be just as great as Bobby Fischer.

‘The Water Diviner’ is Divine Indeed

by Naomi Etienne

If for anything, go because it has a good, heart-warming story.
