What is your opinion, Aunt Blabby?

a fanciful look inside the mind of an adolescent facing typical pressures/stresses of being a kid. it was depicted as a group of feelings/cognitions [anger, sadness, happiness, worry, disgust] fighting among themselves for dominance as well as working as a synergistic combo.

Witchhammer - a b&w Czech film from 1969.

Excellent movie. Showed in graphic detail the torture innocent people went through during the Medieval period when the superstitious magistrates, who don't separate church from state, inflict their own brand of ass-backwards justice.

my husband and i both found it delightful. it would be an excellent resource to get kids familiar with their emotions.

blackkklansman - the sustained level of hate from the klan made this hard to watch. that said, everyone should see it.

Witchhammer was an excellent film. Very helpful to those especially fond of studying medieval history.

Blue Jay was a really sweet but yet a melancholic film. I loved the two characters and felt I wanted to get to know them and found the performances of the actors to be excellent. I really liked watching it and felt touched by it.

confusing, somewhat above my pay grade [intellectually] in terms of easily following the plot. YMMV. I had to google the plot of the movie to make sense of it. I wished that I had done that first. it made me feel stupid.
