A Band Called Death (2012)
One of the Best Documentaries of All-Time
This film is about more than music, Band names or 'firsts'. "A Band Called Death" is about FAMILY, FAITH and BROTHERHOOD. Loved every frame.
The Harimaya Bridge (2009)
A great drama with moving performances
I really enjoyed this film. It's the feature debut of Aaron Woolfolk. I'd seen one of his shorts before about a train station in Japan. But it's clear he has more to say!
The great Danny Glover gives an excellent performance in a supporting role, but it's Bennet Guillory who shines as a stubborn father who has to come to terms with his estranged son (played by Victor Grant). I was less familiar with the Japanese actors but now want to see more of them including Saki Takaoaka who is a big deal in Japan.
The film is beautifully shot with stunning cinematography. You really feel like you're in rural Japan (and San Francisco where parts of the film also take place). Check it out on Netflix, DVD or Bluray.
