Movie Night: Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children

Review:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When Jacob discovers clues to a mystery that stretches across time, he finds Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. But the danger deepens after he gets to know the residents and learns about their special powers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

     

 

 

 

A really poor comparison to the book. If you've read the book, don't watch this movie its going to ruin it for you. If you have seen this movie - read the book I can promise you that you're missing out on so much and its so much better.  I'm really bummed out that the film failed to capture how fantastic the world of the book really is.

Movie Night: Straight/Curve

Review:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Straight/Curve examines the industries and obstacles responsible for our current body image crisis and showcases the dynamic leaders fighting for more diversity of size, race and age.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

     

 

 

 

The most honest look at women and the effect of the fashion industry on our outlook on our appearances. I cried through almost this entire film. Its emotional, its real, its the best documentary I've seen to date. Every woman needs to see this! I love the message of embracing ourselves for who we really are and the effect of social media on trying to improve how women feel about themselves. Straight Curve is beautiful and heartbreaking and inspirational all at the same time.

"This is the turtle that slid into the pond and ate the snake that dropped from a branch and swallowed the fish that swam after the frog -- JUMP, FROG, JUMP!" This infectious cumulative tale will soon have the young frogs you know jumping and chanting with joy.
