Punky Brewster: Tons of Fun (1987)
What a thing to teach children!
No wonder so many of us acquired eating disorders. Why did every TV show in the 80s and 90s address weight in such unhelpful and unhealthy ways? No shows about children should even directly mention weight loss without actually talking about how to eat healthy.
Incendiary (2008)
I do not understand the negative reviews.
Maybe I'm biased because of my adoration for Michelle Williams, but I've been able to pick out her not so great performances without feeling bad in the past. This was the best I've ever seen her.
Perhaps if you've never really experienced a terrible loss it could be outside of your comfort zone, maybe thats the reason for the long winded pick-aparts. I've never lost a child, but I've lost some very dear people and watched both my mother and step mother deal with the loss of children. This was a beautifully honest and raw depiction of the turmoil one goes through. The self blame, the need to fill the hole left behind, snapping completely, and then finally finding joy amongst the rubble.
I also must point out that Michelle's accent was incredible. Its been hard in some of her films to remove her from "Jen Lindley" of her Dawson's Creek days because her voice is so familiar to me. In this film she was completely the character and without a single reminder of Jen. That is a huge feat in the eyes of a Dawson's Creek obsessive like myself.
