Thirteen (2003)
Much Better Than I Expected!
This movie really explores the depth and behavioral spirals that too many teens find themselves swept into, when for whatever reason they just don't feel like they fit in. The acting not only Holly Hunter but by the young girls and pretty much the entire cast was great, the movie grows and grows until finally it snaps, my daughter and I hugged tearfully by the time the credits rolled.
The only unrealistic thing was the age, 15 is believable but not 13. Grab your teens, and get ready to ride an emotional roller coaster, it will real you back and forth between those difficult times as a teen and these times as a parent of a teen. If you don't have a teen watch it anyhow.
Titus (1999)
The Art Direction/ Production Design is UNBELIEVABLE!
What can I say; this is definitely 2 (or more) thumbs up. Be open minded, and thoughtful and you will surely enjoy the ride. There is no way to describe this movie since I cannot compare it to anything, it's one of a kind@!
Definitely in my DVD - must have - collection.
It's Shakespeare, it's present day, it's futuristic, it's Medieval times, it's fictional and totally real too.
The acting, the costumes, the intrigue, is all up there.
I was completely absorbed into this movie it was as though nothing else existed from the time it began until long after it ended. I never knew a movie could cause that to happen.
Cop Rock (1990)
I absolutely loved this series
I thought this was a series, finally that had depth and was made to entertain and move one emotionally, without so many talking heads but through music. Every song was approbate and expressed so much of the true human emotion.
I will never forget the scene with the girl on the bus bench when she sells her baby for dope. Alone she sings an amazing song. I had seen so many depictions of dopers and horrible mothers but never had I felt the depth of emotion that this scene brought me.
I think our general public was just not mature enough to realize what was really going on with this show! I only saw each episode once but they were so compelling that to this day I well remember much of them.
I would really like to get my hands on the VHS and/or (if made) DVDof any or all of this series.
