Written and directed by Thomas Bezucha, Let Him Go is based on a bestselling novel by Larry Watson. The story follows a retired sheriff, played by Kevin Costner and his wife, played by Diane Lane. They grieve over the death of their son and set out to find their only grandson.
It appears their daughter-in-law’s second husband is an abusive man from an abusive family. The sheriff and his wife have to figure out how to get their grandson away from the deadly family.
The movie streams now on Amazon, and it’s worth watching for the sake of these two talented actors.
Directed by Simon Curtis, The Art of Racing in the Rain is based on Garth Stein’s bestseller. Kevin Costner narrates the witty, heartfelt, and philosophical dog named Enzo.
Enzo gets to know his owner, Denny Swift, played by Milo Ventimiglia, while he develops his career as a Formula One race car driver. Enzo gains tremendous insight into the human condition. He discovers that the same techniques on the racetrack can be applied to life.
The movie is available on Blu-ray or DVD; you can download or stream it. People embraced the book, and the film received mixed reviews but was entertaining.
The movie accompanies Enzo as the story follows Swift and the loves of his life – his wife, Eve, played by Amanda Seyfried, and their young daughter, Zoe, played by Ryan Kiera Armstrong. Ultimately, the story is about Swift’s best friend, Enzo.
Enzo, a wise old dog, inspires dog lovers with his thoughts about life experiences. Ultimately, they prepare him to protect his family when they need him the most.
Curtis’s impressive directing credits include My Week With Marilyn, Woman in Gold, and Goodbye Christopher Robin.
The movie also stars Gary Cole, Kathy Baker, and Martin Donovan.
Bring plenty of tissues to the movie. The movie trailer is a tearjerker.
The camera angles from the dog’s point of view help keep the movie engaging. The clip is about the couple meeting for the first time – a good scene to watch.
The best way I can describe the “Pick of the Litter” clip is it relaxed me. The movie seems refreshing and delightful, and this clip proves it.
The following clip seems like a Hallmark movie with the intensity of racing at a low grade.
The featurette explains the relationship between Denny and Enzo — universal.
Denny and Enzo
The movie clip is adorable. Kevin Costner’s narration is endearing and heartfelt.
I saw the first trailer in the movie theaters about two weeks ago and thought, why hasn’t this story been told yet? It is priceless, and everyone needs to see it.
Theodore Melfi’s Hidden Figures is the inconceivable, not surprising, true story of Katherine G. Johnson, played by Taraji P. Henson, Dorothy Vaughan, played by Octavia Spencer, and Mary Jackson, played by Janelle Monáe.
The movie follows a brilliant African-American woman working at NASA who was the brains behind one of the greatest operations. That is the launch of astronaut John Glenn into orbit, a stunning achievement that restored the nation’s confidence, turned around the Space Race, and galvanized the world. The visionary trio crossed all gender and race lines to inspire generations to dream big.
The movie is entertaining, if not educating. I hope to see more movies like this one.
