Oh, my, what visual splendor. A treat for the Holidays. Hugo is a film about the importance of purpose. This movie is a 3D homage to the early days ...
Sports bring a community together because the people on the sidelines feel that they are part of the team experience. The same should be true for science.
Traditions, language and spiritual beliefs of so many of the American Indian nations are almost completely extinguished. Is it any wonder that the youth find themselves in an identity crisis?

Bruno is still a movie that will make you laugh so hard you'll gasp for breath. The set-up is almost identical to Borat's, but Baron Cohen still finds ways to shock you into guffaws, over and over.
It's just a coincidence that Lynn Shelton's wonderfully funny Humpday, a comedy about the denial of homosexual panic, is being released Friday, the same day as Sacha Baron Cohen's Bruno
