It's Movie Time
It's Tuesday afternoon. It's raining. I'm stuck at home with a sick kid. Thus, I will probably not be straying far from my couch until dinner time... which means, of course, that it's movie time! My first choice, Man on Wire, is a documentary chronicling several years in the life of Frenchman Philipe Petit, who walked a tightrope between the WTC twin towers in 1974. This film instantly entrances me every time I see it: the footage, the score, and the narration from Petit and his cohorts all work together beautifully to tell a breathtaking true story. It is seamless and gorgeous, and when it ends you'll want to watch it again immediately. Good thing I'm not going anywhere today.
