The Day the Universe Changed (1985)
A Brilliant Excercise in Knowledge
I have watched this series over again on tape to the point of destruction and look forward to someday owning a fresh DVD copy.
It is, as my title says, a revelation in the art of bringing an interesting way to learn to the masses. Much like Carl Sagan, James Burke neither complicates nor dumbs down the story of how our view of things is made up of what we know RIGHT NOW.
I agree that it should be made part of high-school classes but I fear that Burke's rather staid sense of humor would turn off groups. Best watched alone with complete attention.
Do not pass up an opportunity to see this remarkable mind-expanding series.
Glengarry Glen Ross (1992)
Script+Acting+Directing=GOLD
While the subject is poignant and worthwhile this film is simply a shining example of a triumph in the field of allowing your talent to shine in all facets. If it's SEVERAL acting performances your after to make a movie then it gets no better than this. If you pay attention then you can do nothing but vote 10 of 10 across the board. also see: 12 Angry Men (1997) - a little more on the script side but same difference.
