Re: Reviews & Ratings
Radio (2003)
James Robert Kennedy--nicknamed Radio because of his vintage radio collection and his love of music--is a loner in Anderson, South Carolina, pushing his ever-present grocery cart up and down the streets. He speaks to no one and is rarely spoken to, until one day, Coach Harold Jones, one of the towns most respected men, and coach of the popular high school football team, befriends him. Radio is suspicious at first. But Coach Jones is persistent, even enlisting the help of Radios mother. Jones friends and family are taken aback as well since, until he met Radio, all his energies were poured exclusively into football. Slowly, Coach Jones earns Radio's trust and opens up a new world to him. He invites Radio to help out at football practice and during games and to sit in on his classes at school, despite the initial misgivings of Principal Daniels. He also champions him to the football players, the students and faculty. Coach Jones life is also enriched by Radio, from whom he learns to value friendship and family ties as much as he does coaching football. Still, there are those in town who believe that Coach Jones devotion to the young man is distracting him from his duties as head coach of the football team. There are several attempts to have Radio barred from the classroom and, after his mother's untimely death, remanded to a mental-health facility. Coach Jones valiantly fights off these efforts, but he is finally forced to make a difficult decision, which will impact both his growing friendship with Radio and his career as a football coach.

It's definitely one of my favorite movies of the year, if not all time. It's the story of two Afghan boys living right before the Soviet war. It tells of their friendship and of a deep secret they will both carry throughout their lives. I thought it was going to be too "touchy-feely" but to my surprise kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time. Definitely recommend it for those disillusioned with the state of the movie industry - it is truly a shining star among vulgar pop movies.
I haven't seen Kite Runner because I want to read it first. I keep putting it off.

Heathers (1989) i give it a 6.5/10.
Winnona Ryder, Chrisitan Slater are the main characters. It's dark comedy, which is always good, kind of made me think of columbine.
I also looked up random trivia about it on imdb.com, one of the actress in the film asks someone if they had a "brain tumor for breakfast," and in real life died of a brain tumor in 2001, also one of the actors prays never to commit suicide in the film, he committed suicide in 2000.
