TweetThis is not a joke. It is the review of a very moving film by Ric O’Barry, the man who trained “Flipper”. Before “The Cove” most people did not know how “Flipper” died. My husband warned me, and I will warn you. This is a graphic and heart-wrenching film. There is blood, there is death. [...]

Tweet Doubt Official Movie Trailer 2008 – I can’t wait to see this one. I really like Meryl Streep, and she seems great in this role.  It appears to be about a school/church at the turn of the century, and the headmistress who is unable to accept change, volleying against a priest who is all [...]

TweetDue to constant traveling, I have been homeschooling my son for the last few months. We have gone through different stages where he enjoyed it or didn’t, and I’ve had a few struggles getting him to listen and to actually like doing work, especially math. My son is seven years old and officially in first [...]

TweetWhale Rider is a lovely little movie about a rural Maori town in New Zealand and their search for a leader. It’s about the struggle for a little girl to be accepted, about the struggle between tradition and modern ideas, fulfilling your dreams, and about love within a family and within a community. It introduces [...]

TweetI started watching this movie, expecting a documentary from BBC or the Discovery Channel about sleep and dreams. It was definitely not that, but something much better. A Michel Gondry film. The director of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, many of Bjork’s music videos, and several other amazing works, Gondry is known for thought-provoking [...]

TweetI absolutely love to see Jim Carey in a serious role. I think that Kate Winslet is beautiful. Charlie Kaufman (screenwriter for Adaptation and Being John Malkovich among others) is brilliant. And I think that Michel Gondry is an absolute genius. It also has Elijah Wood and Kirsten Dunst stoned in her underwear (jumping on [...]
