Homicide: Life on the Street: The Subway (1997)
It Was Andre Braugher..............
It was Andre Braugher who carried this episode. He was the one who sat with the dying man until emergency workers could free the man's body caught between the platform and the train. Braugher's character knew that freeing the man from between the platform and train would only cause the man's immediate death. Braugher played his part as if he were really sitting with a dying man, trying to help keep the man's spirit up while knowing he would die. It was when Braugher sat down on the platform and stayed there for the rest of the story that one felt that the story was real and not a TV episode. I give a 10+ to Braugher and to the creator of Homicide for producing some of the best TV in history.
I Kill Giants (2017)
I Kill Giants
I read several reviews before I started watching the movie and all those reviews totally slammed the movie. Don't listen to those reviews. This movie is every bit as good as A Monster Calls and Phoebe In Wonderland. In each movie the child is faced with life and death struggles, fear and denial. Watch this movie and keep at least one kleenex in your pocket. My family is dealing with the same thing. And none of us is handling it well.
The Beyond (2017)
Sci Fi needs to stretch its imagination!
This the kind of movie that I wish would take the next step: that is, going into the Void and discovering what is on the other side and settling down there and creating a new life in a new planet, discovering what the new planet is like, what grows there, what is different from Earth, encountering new life in all its various forms, especially that which is different on Earth, what the People of that planet are like, what the animals are like, and what the plant life is like. A new world, going where no one has gone before! I wish Sci Fi would take the next step and create these new worlds for us to explore and learn from. All without breaking the laws of AstroPhysics. And without the need to carry guns and weapons to "protect ourselves." Sci Fi needs to stretch its imagination!
