This is an independent film I watched a few weeks ago while recovering from one of my headaches. It was released in 2009 and is rated PG – 13. It’s about a divorcee from Palestine and her son who immigrate to the United States in hopes of a better life...

This is a movie I remember my family renting when I was in high school, and it was a delight to watch it again. It’s about the last Emperor of China, who ascended the throne at the tender age of three. As history would have it, China was in the midst...

After celebrating New Year’s at Echo and Karen’s, I spent the first day of the year being lazy with my friends Tina J, Meghan and Shannon. They were in town to attend the jam session at Echo’s and decided to crash at my place rather than risk driving...

If you’re in need of a little laughter, this comedy was a riot. It’s not a new film. I think it came out in 2000 – ironic given the current economic situation in our country now. The story is about your typical, upwardly mobile, upper-middle class family...

Need a little comic relief? I thought this film was pretty funny. Either that, or I just really, really needed to laugh. The story is about a manager at a call center. His company decides to outsource his entire section’s duties to India. They’re firing...

This is not a movie to watch after a bad day. It’s a tear jerker, but oh so good. The story is about a little boy growing up in Nazi Germany. His father gets a promotion and the family has to move from the home they loved in Berlin to a place far away...

This was a nice little accidental movie find. Arranged is the story of two women, both teachers, who meet at a school in Brooklyn. Other teachers and students expect the two to have friction as one is an Orthodox Jew and the other Muslim. Instead, they...

This is a story I adored as a little girl. I even have two sets of Little Women dolls that someday I hope to be able to afford to display. I’ve kept them carefully preserved all these years so as not to mess them up – they’ve never been played with but...

Here’s another little Netflix instant gem. It’s a four-part BBC miniseries called North and South. I’d best describe it as Dickens meets Jane Austin. The story is based on a novel by Elizabeth Gaskill. The story is about a minister’s family. The minister...

I haven’t done movie reviews in a while, although I have watched some rather good ones lately. One of the wonderful things about Netflix is that I can watch a wide variety of things instantly, where ever I am, provided I can get internet access. I only...

It isn’t what you might think. Born into Brothels is one of my recent watches on Netflix. It’s a documentary about the children of sex workers in Calcutta. Actually, the film has very, very little to do with sex at all. It’s much more about a photographer...

The Associate The Associate is a Woopi Goldberg film that came out in the 90s. It’s cute and something great to watch if you’re looking for something funny that doesn’t require too much in the way of actual brain cells. The story is about a talented investment...

As those who know me already know, I’m a sucker for historical dramas. I especially love Jane Austin and other stories from the same period. I can’t quite figure out why. Why is it so appealing to watch stories about the lives of women during this period...

I watched this romantic comedy back in December when I wasn’t feeling so great. It was the perfect movie to watch when you need a comical distraction from your not-so-comical life. The story is about a woman named Jane who is not only a sort of perfect...

To continue with the Netflix reviews, another movie I watched recently isn’t a new film by any stretch – but if you’ve never seen it, it’s a good film. And, it’s family friendly. It’s so clean that my World History teacher in school was able to show it...
