Originally posted on Velvet Park. First, I have to tell you how I even came to see this film.

Was in the capable hands ...

It's on my mind, so I'm writing about it. I'm not sure how I stumbled on this film, but I know it was over a year ago that I did so. Maybe even 2. I finally bought the DVD and watched it. This movie is a film everyone should see. The writer/director Tina Mabry does an excellent job, as do the actors. There's also the theme of sacrifice. What do we give up for our family - even though we may not like them very much. One character sacrifices her way out of the misfortune and dysfunction, only to ha...And t...

Fatherhood is going to make a man out of Eric Matters whether he likes it or not. No there is no bun in the oven! And if there was there would be a lot of explaining to do.

It's on my mind, so I'm writing about it. Generally speaking, as I move about in my every day regular life, I don't think or worry much about people who don't like me or don't wish me well. Generally, as I move about in my every day regular life, I don't consider that I might have haters.

Tuesday, July 28, 2009. Opens with a quote from author Chris Hedges: "war is a drug." Following this unsubtle statement of theme, the film goes on to support the idea that "war is a drug" with skillfull filmmaking, but ultimately lets us down because it doesn't illuminate anything further. For a better example) and the banality of coming home after experiencing the adrenaline rush of combat (also see. Monday, July 20, 2009.
