Mr. Brooks movie

Winter Passing was a beautifully made piece depicting the life of a young actress who must come to terms with her father, who has created a pseudo-family around him. While incredibly well-done, the truth is I found it rather depressing. The relationship with her father heals, the discomfort she …
The Lorax
My daughter loves Dr. Seuss books so I recently picked her up a movie based off of one of them “The Lorax.” And, I have to say, despite the fact it was obviously filmed years ago, it was still quite a good movie.
