Every one deserves a second chance at life. Larry Crowne is given a gift from UMart that seems more like a a reason to falter than to fly. However, he dusts himself off and and puts on his big boy pants and begins his transformation from just living to truely being alive.

Burlesque delivered! Outstanding cast, strong performances by all. Music was sharp and the dance was sexy wothout being vulgar. Do not now if this was adapted from a play. If not, it should be on Broadway.

I must admit I am not a huge fan of Woody Allen. Yet, I was pleasntly surprised with Vicky Christina Barcelona. I was initially drawn to the movie by the cast and thouroughly won over.

I had watched this movie some years ago. After watching it again, all these years later, the movie has given me "a gift", areminder if you will, to continue my journey for peace in seeking our spiritual connectedness in this "reality"
