The Road Trailer
Warning please don’t take the “Hollywood” trailer as a rewrite of the book. Having read this amazing novel by Cormac McCarthy (No Country for old men). I was almost turned off by the trailer. But, I was compelled by all the “On again, off again” release of this film. That perhaps they wouldn’t ruin such a masterpiece. By adding such “Hollywood action”. And much to my liking it was close to the actual novel.

So, with that disclaimer! I will tell all to go see this film. A story of a Father and his son. Struggling to make it to the coast. In a post apocalyptic landscape. In a time where the most precious commodity for them. Is the two bullets they own. For that God forsaken moment they would have to take their own lives. Survival is their only option. This film will play on your emotions. Like no other. The dynamic between “PaPa” and “The Boy” is enough to make any grown man cry.

Food, Inc

Food, Inc Trailer
With the tagline “you will never look at dinner the same again.” I must completely agree! This not an eye opening film about our food industry. It also opens our eyes to how our Government is willing to turn a blind eye. I personally have strong views on America’s diet. This documentary only enlightens me more to why America is obese. Certainly we all blame McDonalds. But, watching this you will know why. Having Eric Schlosser author of “Fast Food Nation” Narrate. Only helps director Robert Kenner get his point across. This documentary is a must see. Hopefully you will all rent this. And perhaps by doing so. Make a change in our food industry. Make going “Green” a lifestyle.
