Has anyone said Minding the Gap yet? One of the best movies of 2018 of any genre.

Survived: Beyond and Back abiut people who survived technical physical death, experienced Heaven (and in one case Hell), but against all odds returned to their physical bodies as it was not their time. They all expressed very different experiences but with strong commonalities. They all returned to this life with a sense of appreciation for life but also no more fear of death after experiencing how peaceful it was in the other side .
It helps me out life in better perspective.

The "Seven Up! Series"
If you are not familiar:
The Up series of documentary films follows the lives of ten males and four females in England beginning in 1964, when they were seven years old.
The first film was titled Seven Up!, with later films adjusting the number in the title to match the age of the subjects at the time of filming. The documentary has had nine episodes—one every seven years—thus spanning 56 years.
The children were selected for the original program to represent the range of socio-economic backgrounds in Britain at that time ...
The most recent instalment, the ninth, is titled "63 Up"

I loved Spellbound. It captures so much about so many things.

Rewind. I believe it's on Amazon Prime. Trigger warning for those who have been in abusive families.. But amazing how these situations can be dealt with with the right support.

The best I have even seen was an old-school style TV doc about a hairdressing salon in the provinces in the UK. They had the same people come in every week, so it was a real community and they kept a black leather handbag behind the counter in case any of the customers were going to a funeral and needed to borrow it.
obviously i'm not doing it justice in my description, you just have to know it was moving and just amazing.

I watched this after seeing it recommended on DCUM. It is indeed excellent. Also, one thing I realized - if your ex wants to meet up with you, never go to a park where no one else is around.Anonymous wrote:Just watched Dear Zachary. It was excellent, and but not unbearable, as I was expecting. Maybe my expectations for the trauma of it were set too high because of comments on this thread.
Slight Spoiler:
I think the end was ultimately pretty uplifting. You see the parents surrounded by such a large circle of love. A PP got it exactly right when she said that it shows what a wonderful legacy someone ordinary can leave just by being a good person. Andrew's parents are incredibly inspiring, also, so you can see where Andrew got his good nature. It makes me want to be a better-- kinder, more patient, more easygoing--parent to my own children.
