Battle Los Angeles (2011)

Wow!

Came across this on Netflix. I didn't realize how gritty and realistic the combat would be...aliens aside.

My Octopus Teacher (2020)

She Teaches Us All!

Thank you for making this film! We all can be taught by this sweet, perfect creature. I was enthralled every minute! Story-telling perfection! We could all use more resilience to get through life, especially after 2020...this little one's example strengths and inspires me to be a better human.

Hamilton (2020)

July 2020

[10/10 · 5 July 2020]

To watch this through the lens of today, is just what is needed to "bind up the wounds of a nation" if only for a moment. A reminder of the patriotism that built our nation. A reminder that patriotism is a feeling that should call us to action. Patriotism is more than parades, fireworks and barbecues. Patriotism is sacrifice. What we are asked to do today for our nation (wear a mask, social distance) pales in comparison to what our forefathers & foremothers sacrificed. Will we rise up and act on the example of so many before us? Thank you for the timeless message and example of Hamilton, Washington and Jefferson within this magnificent musical.

Sunnyside (2019)

Character Development

Will need more episodes for proper character development. May not survive long enough to do so.
