The Drummer

“The powerful vibration of the drum can awaken a man’s soul.”
I had a chance to hear a drum team play for a local venue last year and the vibrations from the beat of the drums thundered so powerfully throughout the room that you could literally could feel the vibrations penetrate your body. It was intense [...]

Under the Same Moon – La misma luna

We rented this movie on the recommendation of my son as he heard about it in his Spanish class.
It is about a little boy named Carlos played by Adrian Alonso who lives with his grandmother in Mexico while his mother works in the United States trying to earn enough money to bring him to the [...]

Phoebe in Wonderland

This movie addresses the hardships of mental illness and I wish there were more movies out there like this as mental illness is an issue were society often pretends as though it does not even exist.

Keld was dumbfounded at his wife’s departure and at [...]

Vanaja

The movie takes place in southern India where Vanaja [...]

A charming and inspiring story which shows you that no matter what your age, you can still have dreams and as long as you have life, you have the power to make them come true.

Little Miss Sunshine – the winner is….

I think it is the music indeed that made this movie so absolutely lovable and made you realize while listening to it, that what some people may see as dysfunctional is to others completely normal, and what others see as completely normal is actually quite dysfunctional.

This is the kind of movie that really makes you stop and take another look at a person before making an opinion without knowing the story beneath.
