Nice version of the standard Indian parental prejudice/bride-selection story. The marriage of fiction and documentary was well handled.

Well-done combat dog story of a woman trainer who benefits as much as the dog from their bonding.
Dark period piece Rachel Weisz plays the supposed black widow, Rachel Ashley, bent on poisoning her husband.
Entertaining Ramen noodle shop comedy.
Superb find-the-assassin movie. Tony Britton, Inspector Label, must track down Edward Fox, a believable sociopath, paid to assassinate De Gaulle.

Unconventional love story by Jeff Johnson beginning with oddball characters, Knottspeed and Fencepost, struggling with mobility issues in nearly homeless circumstances. Sticking until the Part II story line kicks in will reward you with a plot that comes together and the characters of Dr. Simon Resner and Tay Tay, both…
