The 700 Club (1966)
great show
The 700 Club gives a great perspective on world events. Some have described it as disingenuous or cheesy. I find the program to be informative and inspirational. It is only natural for many to throw mud on a program that has proved to be so successful. There are very few shows that can point to a 40 year track record of success in the world of television media and The 700 Club is one of them. While Mr. Robertson may have been wrong to say that someone should be assassinated, I find it curious that so many people will literally trip over themselves to hop on the bandwagon of criticism. I have certainly said some foolish things in my life. I would certainly be willing to forgive Mr. Robertson since he puts out a great show.
Falling Down (1993)
Great movie
Great commentary on American society. The acting was excellent and the plot was well executed and moved in a linear fashion that kept the audience on the edge of its seat. Michael Douglas is clearly one of the great actors of our time. From his performance in Wall Street to Wonder Boys, he has proved himself to be versatile talent spanning four decades. This was certainly a different role for him and he approaches it well. Robert Duvall also does an outstanding job as he plays an affable hero that everyone can relate to. Falling Down is one of my favorite movies. It is unfortunate that this movie has not held up well to the test of time. If is in danger of becoming a footnote in the history of cinema. It deserves better treatment in my opinion.
