Whale Rider (2002)
Went With My Girlfriend...
My girl friend suggested this movie on the spur of the moment. I never heard of it before, so I didn't know what to expect. We went to see it together that same evening. What we discovered was an incredible love story between a beautiful little girl and her grandfather. It becomes painfully obvious throughout the movie that his granddaughter has nothing but the highest regard and respect for her grandfather and the Maori tradition he teaches and honours as the chief of the Maori community.
However, the grandfather is bound by tradition to reject his granddaughter's love of these traditions. She was born in tragedy and appears to be doomed to sadness and failure. It's a hard life. Redeemed only by her unwavering love and respect for her granddad and what he represents. A beautiful story with beautiful actors. A beauty that will earn your respect and make you cry. I did. What more could you ask for?
National Lampoon's Repli-Kate (2002)
Very sexy and very funny.
Very sexy and very funny. Ali Landry is terrific. I never saw her before seeing this film. The supporting cast is great as well. I only wish I could find a girl like "Repli-Kate" in real life. What a blast life would be with her.
Shichinin no samurai (1954)
Seven Samurai: THE original Samurai movie!
What can anyone say about this movie except it's a bona fide masterpiece. Introduced Kurosawa and Japanese culture to me and what a great introduction. All about honour and bravery and perfection. Bushido at its best.
