At first, I thought that "The Mists of Avalon" would be just like every other tale told of Camalot, but I was blown away by the originality of this story. It is told by the woman who has always been viewed as the villan, Morgaine. It is mainly about the struggle that the followers of the mother goddess go through as Christianity spreads through Britain. It focuses more on the mystical ways of Avalon and less on Camalot, making it different from most stories. The performance of Anjelica Huston will blow you away. It is one of her best films yet. Contains a great cast and beautiful scenery. It's a must see, and would best be viewed without commercials to interrupt.

Ok, well it's not an action-packed thriller, but if your in the mood to laugh, be sure to pick up "Faithful." Cher and Chazz Palminteri give excellent performances that are sure to have you rolling with laughter by the middle of the movie, as it is filled with witty dialogue.

This film was truly excellent. I've heard some say that it didn't depict reality like that is something negative. Yes, I've seen "Schindler's List" and although it was a good movie, I didn't like it because I hate to watch people get tortured and killed. I can't take it. Watching life is beautiful wasn't easy to watch either. There is only so much reality I want to see. I don't think that the characters in the movie made concentration camps look "easy" either. Children and elderly people getting gassed in a big room doesn't look "easy" and neither does being separated from your family and being forced to work all day long fearing for you life. None of that looks "easy." I think that "Tea With Mussolini" and "Life Is Beautiful" are very similar. The thing that I liked about "Tea With Mussolini" is that there was no concentration camps and the main Jewish character Elsa (Cher) escaped back to America. That was what I found to be beautiful. I know that wasn't reality and very few Jews escaped, but you want to see movies about the Elsa's of the world who did get away. : )
