Recent Movies

1. Changeling
Had heard about this story a couple of years ago and loved the movie. It is hard to watch and I found myself talking to the screen, but it was well done. The corruption of the LAPD boggles the mind, but even more upsetting is the way that women are treated by the cops. Jolie is wonderful in this role. Realize that I tend to like Eastwood movies.

2. W
Okay this was kinda like picking a scab and bleeding all over again, but Josh Brolin is magnificent in this role.

3. Nothing But the Truth
Here is another movie made for adults. A good story without explosions and car chases, and yet you are kept on the edge of your seat as you wait for things to get worse than they already are.

4. The Secret Lives of Bees
Loved the book and really liked the movie. Great acting by every single person in the movie.
