a new low

Wow, I think I only watched 8 movies since last post. BOO! Very bad!

Dialogues of the Exiled - a 70's look at the Chilean exiles living in France. storyline is hard to follow, since there isn't much of one. Very 70's filmmaking style.

Percy Jackson & the Lightning Thief - I'm kind of a sucker for the movies that play with old myths. I enjoyed this flick.

The Wild Hunt - WIN! LOVED this film! Highly recommendable.

Summer Camp! - As a former camper AND camp counselor, I can completely relate to this flick. Enjoyable for sure.

Chris & Don - Pretty interesting look into a gay couple that was separated by 30 years!

How to Train Your Dragon - Wish I would have seen it in 3-D. I always like the movies that challenge us to re-think what we were taught. :)

Good Hair - Really liked this movie. Right amount of comedy and truth w/o making a stance. Left that up to the audience.

Precious - Finally got around to seeing it. Didn't cry, thankfully, but was very glad for my blessings of a healthy childhood :(

A Jihad for Love - Another movie that makes me count my blessings. Shows the difficulty of gays that have to reconile their sexuality with their Islamic religion. If you didn't know, in some countries, homosexuality is illegal and is "just cause" for murder. :(


Okay, so that's 9. Still. Not a lot of film watching, but I'm a busy gal! Peace!
