OLD NEWS ITEMS:
(1) Triangle Jewish Film Festival (www.tjffnc.org) was held in Cary on March 30th, 2008 at the Galaxy Theater. An all day event. A total of ten movies are being presented. We saw five of the 10 movies and we can recommend SOMEONE TO RUN WITH for older teenagers and adults and DOUBLETIME for the entire family.
Summary of movies reviewed at that Triangle Jewish Film Festival:
DOUBLETIME is about a southern team making it to the national "double skip" jumprope contest held n NYC. A worthwhile film for the entire family.
SOMEONE TO RUN WITH is film in Israel and is in Hebrew with English subtitles. It is about a sister efforts to save her drug-addicted brother. Her dog plays a significant part in this action-pack adventure. Worthwhile to see for older and mature teenagers and adults.
MAKING TROUBLE is a documentary on female Jewish comedians in the United States. The foul language and the lack of a clear and uplifting plot made the movie disappointing and sad to watch (this was not a funny movie). Only recommended for adults who have a historic interest in knowing more about the most famous Jewish female comedians.
Making Trouble was disappointing and had foul language and did not live up to our standards.
(2) Saving Sarah Cain is now available on DVD for rental and sale.
