Wings of Fame (1990)
excellent film/spoiler
I saw this film a few months ago and loved it so much that I purchased it. The story is very captivating. The idea that there is an afterlife set up based on the level of fame that you have achieved on earth is intriguing. One was rich and famous on earth but the fame died quickly once dead. The other had no fame but what he attained through killing the famous man. However, he seemed to learn the most from the incident and the aftermath. We were given no knowledge of what happened to the average person, really, except a glimpse of souls floating in the seas of purgatory. Is that the fate that awaits those that accomplish nothing in life? Excellent film to begin to explore the concept. Really believe it should be re-released in todays society...perhaps we have evolved enough to understand it or at least give it some thought.
Fever Pitch (1997)
Cover does not convey how great this movie is
The cover of the Feverpitch DVD does not relay to the consumer what a really great movie this is. Whether it is about soccer or football, we can all sort of relate to the characters in this story. To be honest, I got this movie because Colin Firth is in it and after doing some research figured it couldn't hurt to watch it. I had just seen his Hope Springs which I had to turn off, just didn't like the story line and even his gorgeousness could not keep me there. But Feverpitch just had me laughing and I think I actually stopped breathing minutes at a time. It is so hilarious how serious his character, Paul, took "football" and how hard it seemed for his new girlfriend to relate to his seriousness. All you Firth fans out there beware, this movie will only increase your love for this man. And those who are just wondering if it is worth the rent, I'd say no. It is worth the buy!
The Other Side of Heaven (2001)
Beautiful movie from start to finish
I watched this movie with my 17 year old daughter last night and we both loved it. It was full of beautiful messages that we as a human race have so sadly forgotten If once in a while we all took a moment and thought of life like the young man in this movie, this would be a wondrous world. It breaks my heart that a movie with so much to offer was basically ignored by the public and press.
