Star Wars- enjoyment
while the ageing left struggles fanatically to shore up the dead body of secularism and own your own morality ,ART reminds us that the new generation want the boundaries between right and wrong , good and bad to be clearer- its more fun that way too !

My old favourite --
Its a wonderful life
-----gets a sideswipe in Homealone4 -a modern drama style difficult to resist for our imaginative child( its very violent)- not neccesarily recommended.
For any of you feeling a bit depressed, and not offended by a mere angel allusion and doses of 40' style sentimentality- --
Its a wonderful life
a great down to earth movie to remind anyone about how they can contribute in a world of messed up dreams.

Enjoyed ----'
Memphis Belle
---too - great engaging drama based on real 2ndWW issues.

Luther is the tough new story in the current pack- a film not to be missed. Would you prefer another empty indulgence in the shallow games of the market(Howard Hughes and The Aviator ). href="http://www.lutherthemovie.com.au",
If money is power, Howard would be your man, and the powerful his biggest fans.
No, One of the best films of all time said so, years gao
! For those who don't want to follow the bright lights into a cul de sac or yet another lonely room , the question is
"If money is power, why did this poor man make every politician in his world feel very weak.
If ideas and ideals are not important , why are his words enough to toughen up the turntables and turn the world uspide down - including Elizabeth in her time ? Lets hear from Peter Ustinov, Cate Blanchett and Nelson Mandella on this one !
