Mother and Child (2009)
Schmaltz! Scmaltz! Schmaltz!
Absolutely conventional, boring, predictable Hollywood schmaltz! Another soul-numbing movie written from a standard chick-flick template. I only watched it through to the end to see if I predicted the ending. I did. It completely caters to the lazy, obtuse film goer that doesn't care to be challenged in any way. That is to say, most of today's film watcher. This movie's been made thousands of times before, and will be made many times again.
Disneyland: The Mooncussers: Graveyard of Ships (1962)
History of the Kennedy family.
This movie, along with "The Godfather" should be shown together whenever documentaries on the anniversary of JFK's assassination are trotted out. The Kennedy family were pirates, thugs and gangster's, only achieving legitimacy with Joe Sr's purchase of the presidency for his drugged out, horndog son. Otherwise, another ripping yarn by Disney, that makes being a criminal seem like jolly good fun.
