Movie Lessons
April 2000
One of the benefits of school being out is that I get to catch up with movies- some that I missed a decade ago, others just released. And in each flic, there�s always some moral lessons to be learned. Of course this can be up to your own interpretation- here�s what I learned from some recent screenings:
