Song of the Week [#50]
July 6, 2009
In honor of the 50th song of the week, I thought I’d pick something special. Something classic. Canon in D.
There has been many more modern remixes, even in video games.. thought I’d pick an older version.
Enjoy!
I Dream Of A World [Poem]
July 5, 2009
I dream of a world
where a smile
is the only weapon
where words touch
and reach out
A place of peace
for all to enjoy
a slice of life
with no fights
and all healed.

Movie Spotlight: The Life Before Her Eyes
July 3, 2009
I did not know anything about this film before I watched it. Only that Uma Thurman starred in it. The beginning of the film draws you right in, thanks to James Horner’s wonderful soundtrack (you might know his music from films like Braveheart, The Boy In The Striped Pajamas, and Titanic).
While I won’t go into to much details with the film’s plot, it kept me very intrigued into what would happen next. Some of the scenes were very repetivive, but overall it’s a very good thriller/drama film.
Based on the novel by Laura Kasischke, I question as to how the novel was written – perhaps I might give it a read and see how the book compares to the film. If there’s anything to take away from the film it would be that life is precious and people can change for the better.
