9/6/07 weekend movies

Bridge to Terabithia (On screen)(8/10)
Two kids fairytale story about friendship & imagination etc. Movie ending was realistic {blends both elements of reality and fantasy together perfectly} & music was haunting. Incidentally this is my 2ed movie on this theme. (first one is Pan's Labyrinth) I will write more later.

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner (1967)(DVD) (9/10)
Daughter comes home after shortened vacation with new boy friend & declares that we are in deep love & they are getting ready for marriage in the next week. Guess the situation of her white parents. (catch is daughter boy friend is a black man.) In today world this is not a shocking but considering first time movie was released in 1967. During that time, racial segregation was very common in parts of America. Rest of the movie revolves around sequence of unfolding events during the afternoon & evening of day in their house. You will see pretty good character development & nice action from the cast. Worth watching movie.

Sling Blade (1996) (8/10)
Lead character comes from metal institute & he was forced to make a choice in today world.
Some parts of the movie was slow but good movie.
