A Lion in the House (2006)
Brilliant emotional doco
This is one of the greatest documentaries I have seen. It doesn't largely edit, or grey fact into fiction, manipulate truths, use music to dictate moods, no dramatic commentaries. It simply lets the camera roll and captures what documentaries are so supposed to do: record reality. I watched this in two parts as it is long and very exhausting emotionally. It is so sad. I didn't cry, I was a blubbering mess. My wife too. We looked at each other at various times during the series and we both had tears streaming down our cheeks. This has stayed with me through the years and I still think about it. It puts you right in there and confronts you with the awful reality that children still die from cancer.
The Notebook (2004)
awful
one of the worst films i have ever seen. poor script, corny, unpoetic, what more can you say? it had me laughing through this awful ordeal. anyone who liked this needs to go back to school. it is nothing more than a midday TV movie. very poor b-grade flick. pityful. weak. unimaginative. i have nothing but contempt for this poor excuse of a film. burn all the copies to wipe it from existence. please! if i could give it -10 i would. it doesn't take much to entertain some people. if you going to watch this for the first time just make sure you have a container to be sick into. you don't want to make a mess of your sofa. a disgrace. a blight in film history. a sickly corny pathetic, piece of rubbish.
