A two-time graduate of New Mexico State University, Jarrett is an educator and former baseball coach in transition after the junior college where he worked recently closed. A passionate film enthusiast and amateur critic, rarely is there a day when you won’t find him enjoying a movie or three. His favorite cinema moment was getting to watch Inglourious Basterds in a Lancaster, CA theater with baseball legend Roger Clemens and his son Koby.

Jason Chandler – Contributing Writer
Jason Chandler is a New Mexico State graduate, full-time Physical Education teacher, and part-time movie sparring partner to Jarrett Leahy. He is always open to passionate debate or civilized arguing, but believes, in the end, it’s whatever floats your cinematic boat. Jason has an affinity for Sam Peckinpah films and his major movie pet peeve is differentiating between “Best” movies and “Favorite” movies. FlickChart gives him nightmares. Once he took a selfie with Jack Palance and Jack told him to take it again because he blinked. His favorite movie is “The Godfather,” and his favorite movie scene is the diner scene with Robert DeNiro and Al Pacino in “Heat.”
