MOVIE DAY

Lonewolf's Movie Review - Movies I watched on cable - 2013


"ALL THINGS FALL APART"   Dir: Mario Van Peebles

With 50 Cent, Angela Bassett, and the director. A very poignant movie about a football player, super-star potential, Heisman Trophy candidate who finds out he has cancer, and now he has to adjust to a different way of living. Good story-line.


"JOHN Q" (1999) Dir: Nick Cassavetes

 Somewhat believable story about a man (Denzel Washington) who takes over a hospital/ER room, in order to get a heart transplant operation for his son.

Memorable line: "I'm not gonna bury my son. My son's gonna bury me."

High point in the movie: When all his efforts have failed, John Q comes to the conclusion that if no heart donor was available, he would kill himself and donate HIS heart for his son. That scene was the story's "Black Moment."
