Saturday Spelunking - Apple+

 Saturday Spelunking 

I decided to finally check out my complementary Apple+ subscription today. (Got it as a perk from buying an Apple device over the Holidays-nice!) I have been wanting to check out a few of the shows. Breezed past but added to my watch later list: Here We Are based on Oliver Jeffers best-selling book, Wolfwalker, Trying & For All Mankind.

I took some time to watch an episode of Dickinson. The show definitely harkens to the absurdity of a woman’s world during the time period and lends itself well to the comedy genre. There are highlights of serious issues that faced our society then as now. It is an interesting watch that I may return to, but I think you have to be in the right frame of mind to appreciate this as it should be.

I also watched the first 2 episode of Dear... Now, this was great. I laughed, I cried & learned a thing or two. While I am usually very picky about my real life shows or documentaries, this one has me hooked. If you can, check it out!

The Beauty of Martial Arts

This is just the final scene of the Korean Film, The Duelist.  I am very proud to say that this is one of the first foreign film DVDs in my collection.  It is a must see for anyone who appreciates the power, form, beauty and poetry that can be found in great martial art films.  The pictures created throughout the films many battles are amazing until themselves.  I fall in love with the majesty of the lyrical element in the scenes every time I view the film.  If you have a chance, find this film and watch it.  It is worth it!


A Guaranteed Giggle...

I was in conversation with a friend on Facebook a few weeks ago when I got reminded about this guaranteed giggle.  I just wanted to share with you. It is one of my favorite animation segments showing How It's Done.  Thanks again Disney. WARNING: Be sure you aren't eating or drinking anything while watching this clip. It could be dangerous to your health!
