i realized the other day, that the last three movies i've watched have had death as a central theme.
- an inconvenient truth: al gore tells the story of global warming. a really straight forward documentary of his speech on global warming - with a lot of high impact visual and some personal life & anecdote thrown in. holy crap, what a frightening movie. if you haven't seen it.... it's worth a watch. 40 years and the point of no return is here. besides, who knew al could be interesting? (no political comments please - i really had never paid much attention to al, but i think after watching this movie that it would have been interesting had he not let bush get away with that florida shit. your president impacts our country, but i can't do anything about it.)
- eulogy: a delightful black comedy about 3 generations of a dysfunctional family that gather for their father's funeral, only to discover how little they really know about their family.
- meet joe black: death and taxes, living life to the fullest - no regrets. the inevitable catches up to you, even if he is a nice guy.
