Young Adult Library: March 2007
http://youngadultlibrary.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 28, 2007. Fletcher, A. (Director). Format: Video, Movie. Genre: Drama, Music, Dance. And dramatic, frolicking romance ensues. I swear. It does indeed ensue. Complete with loads and loads of dancing. Although, somewhat enjoyable, in that "oh God, it hurts" kind of way. A movie for the S&M freak in all of us! But, really. what you want to hear is the real dirt! How Jamie Saw It. In a toss up for worst movie in the entire universe, it’s a neck-in-neck race between Step Up. It’s the ag...

Reading Young Adult novels. Occasional foodie-ing. Saturday, June 25, 2011. Outrage over the riot outrage. Posting up the rioters' addresses and phone numbers, sending death threats to their families, having some weird sense of superiority and self-righteousness while doing these things? Are they going to look back on this and feel sorry about it later? Maybe some of them will; maybe some of them won't. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Revised fairy or folktale.

Sunday, March 25, 2007. Filmed in Nova Scotia. Format: Video, Movie. Genre: Independent Film, Drama/Comedy. So I choose Whole New Thing. Based solely on the fact that there's a young adult in it. I'm going to admit that I hardly even read the back. Shame on me. But you know what? This is one weird movie! But in such good ways! And as a bonus, it was filmed right here in good ol. A movie about small-town life, unhappiness, love, despair, poetry, sex, Shakespeare, inspiration and family, Whole New Thing.
