Here we go again. Another star wars movie with a twist...its animated. I am not a avid star wars fan, however, I have seen the new trilogy not the old one. I was excited to finally see this movie and I wasn't disappointed. The plot was simplistic at best and wasn't bombarded with idle chit-chat. It was a thrill ride from beginning to end, I don't care about the naysayers have to say. I felt that the movie was fresh, a nice change of pace, amazing feature film. The action never stifled or faltered it kept up with the film. The relationship between Anakin and the padawan was incredibly deep and moving. I felt a connection and was rewarded. If you are a crazed star wars fan you will nick pick this movie to death. Watch this movie because it was to the point and filled with action. I recommend ... Read More

VHS : Jerusalem
Selma Lagerlöf, the first female Nobel prize winner in literature, is known in Sweden for her extraordinary storytelling gifts. Her novel Jerusalem uses as its historical background the Pietist movement of the early 19th century. This movement can be seen as the beginning of the breakdown of the state church system in Sweden, for it allowed for the possibility that the common man (not woman at this time) could be filled with divine wisdom and vision -- that this was no longer the provenance of clergymen alone. The ramifications of this movement for traditional societal order were breathtaking.
Lagerlöf's novel takes this historical background and sets in its midst a responsible, strong and serious young man, Ingmar Ingmarsson, who has promised his father on his deathbed that he will grow up to ... Read More

Its time people realize somthing important. When George Lucas sat down to write star wars in the early 1970's he wrote episodes 1-6. Not 4-6, 1-3 but ALL six!!! He couldn't make a movie that long. So he came up with the story from ep 4 because he felt it was the best part for the time. It was the greatest film of all time. He did not expect it to do that well. He was exhausted from working on it, and vowed never to direct again, which is why he did not direct ep 5 and ep 6. However, years went by, and so did the technology (which his company developed!! ILM) which became CG. Now that it existed, he could tell the story he wanted to tell- ep 1-3. BY KNOCKING THIS MOVIE YOU ARE KNOCKING LUCAS HIMSELF!! Its his baby. NOW PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, get over Jar-Jar!! I was frankly blown away by the lightsaber ... Read More

VHS : The Best Intentions
I saw this (the three hour long version), some fifteen years ago. THE BEST INTENTIONS takes an intimate look at the Ingmar Bergman's parents' early years as a young married couple, against the wishes of his mother's (Pernilla August) parents. Her husband is a rather humorless and morose young man (Samuel Froler), and it was hard for me to see why they ended up together, at first. In fact, it was more than hard! Over time, it is revealed why the two came together in this union. Also, keep in mind that if it wasn't for their partnership, the great Swedish director Ingmar Bergman, never would have existed to begin with! So, this pairing was invaluable.

I am not really that familiar with Swedish cinema (other than Bergman's wonderful WILD STRAWBERRIES), but this was a great education for me. ... Read More

VHS : Mary Mother of Jesus
This is an incredible movie to watch especially as a mother. We watch this movie once a year around Ash Wednesday and I have done this since my kids were 1 and 3 and are now 14 and 16. At one time my younger son was so sad and engrossed with the movie he wanted a "dream catcher" so the thought of the awful things seen as a mother of a child who was tortured so would just go away. I will never forget his true sadness and fear - how the mother of God must have felt! The Schrivers put this film together! Just awesome. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
