Whale Rider is one of the most quiet yet powerfully affecting films I've ever seen. We just watched it on Netflix instant download for the first time since seeing it in theaters years ago, and I was overcome even more with this second viewing. A beautiful, heartbreaking, soulful, and completely original film.
Agreed - a beautiful film!!

ReplyDeleteWhat are your feelings about Netflix?
I feel like their selection is really bizarre...
Somethings make sense but then there are some options that are out of nowhere.
Suite Henry, I agree that the movies that are available on instant download on Netflix are pretty random, and it can be hard to find good ones. However, I think their overall selection (including the movies that you order in the mail) is great!
ReplyDeleteYou forgot to mention that it was made in the most beautiful country in the world ;)
ReplyDeleteI loved it years ago as well. Funny because I too was thinking it would be great to watch again.
ReplyDeleteBest,
