Idiocracy has left me dumber for watching it
but don't worry Mike Judge I'll just blame Fox.
Unfortunately the film's social commentary is lost
with all the dumb jokes but then again
maybe that was the point.
In 1997, a film crew accompanied an Interplast volunteer surgical team to An Giang province in Vietnam's Mekong Delta. The filmmakers donated their services to document the team's experiences and produce A Story of Healing, which earned the 1997 Academy Award for best documentary short subject. The 28-minute film is followed by a short epilogue after the credits which follows-up on two patients 16 months after their surgeries.
Ten years after its original release, A Story of Healing has been released under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivatives license (by-nc-nd) and is available for free online.
Last night we watched “Capote” and I have to say it was a great film. Much better than I had expected, now I’ve never really heard of Truman Capote but I had heard of “In Cold Blood” before so I had some background on the story. After doing a little research on the characters and the writer, it makes me appreciate the acting and writing even more than I did, it really was a fantastic performance by Phillip Seymore Hoffman. Also, Judge Amy’s tv brother wrote the screenplay crazy!
