    Meet Joe Black

    ★★★½

    Who can fear death when it looks like Brad Pitt?

    World’s longest movie and a remake of Death Takes a Holiday.

    Nothing can beat the TV movie remake with Melvyn Douglas, Myrna Ly, Monte Markham, and Yvette Mimieux. It had a better script and for me, more poignancy.

    However it’s hard to go wrong with Anthony Hopkins and a gorgeous Brad Pitt. The film had good comedy and beautiful music.

    Also I found the ending satisfying.

    She has a date; she cancels it for…

    The Trial of the Chicago 7

    ★★★★½

    Aaron Sorkin wrote and directed this brilliant film about the trial of the Chicago Seven, which took place In Chicago in 1969-1970.

    The Chicago 7 were Abbie Hoffman (Sacha Baron Cohen), Jerry Rubin (Jeremy Strong), David Dellinger (John Carroll Lynch) , Tom Hayden (Eddie Redmayne), Rennie Davis (Alex Sharp), John Froines (Danny Flaherty), and Lee Weiner (Noah Robbins).

    Actually the seven represented different groups, but no matter, they were all painted with the same brush. At the Democratic Party Convention…
