My best friend feels the same way...

204.95.255.70

She teaches in an inner elementary city school and she feels she has quite enough gritty, complex realism in her real life. BTW, she loves HP, as do many of her children. I've been supplying her with HP & LOTR posters. (The American Library Assoc. had very cool posters of the LOTR characters for their reading promotion.)Several of these kids, many of whom are LD, have started reading HP as a result of seeing the film. A few have even tackled LOTR as a result of seeing the film. My friend is delighted - it's not often these children pick up a book for pleasure.

I like all kinds of films. I can be snotty, but I'm not offended by popcorn flicks. Sometimes I'm in the mood for a Memento, a Mullholland Drive, an Amorres Perros...some days I just want to relax at the movies. But I'm always annoyed by movies that dumb down. And I'm sick to death of car crashes and violence towards women. Enough!

BTW, I think some Kid flicks are quite fine on any terms...the Babe movies, James & The Giant Peach, many others.
