Living in the Limelight

“Living in the limelight, the universal dream”, was a phrase coined by the Great Canadian rock band Rush. I wonder, when they wrote this lyric, did they think that by 2010 they would have sold so many albums that they would be bested by only The Beatles and The Rolling Stones or that they are considered by many to be Canada’s number one rock band? Just days after being presented with a star on the “Walk of Fame”, they release “Rush: Beyond the Lighted Stage”. This new documentary explores Rush’s 40 year career, from their childhood to there international success. It's filled with never before seen backstage footage and interviews with some of rock music’s biggest stars including Kirk Hammett of Metallica, Les Claypool of Primus, Billy Corgan of The Smashing Pumpkins and many more!                    

Rush: Beyond the Lighted Stage is an essential part of any Rush fan's collection and you can purchase the DVD or Blu-ray at your local BLOCKBUSTER store.

Good Guys not Gilmore Girls

What makes a good movie are good characters, good acting and good writing; a story that can reach you and allow you to relate to the characters on some kind of level. It is what we get in this small yet clever movie starring Alexis Bledel (Gilmore Girls) and Scott Porter (Friday Night Lights).

Here's the plot:

Beth wants it all: a good job; good friends; and a good guy to share it with. Of course that last one is trickiest of all as Beth discovers when she falls hard for Tommy, a handsome, young Wall Street hotshot. Just as everything seems to be falling into place, Beth meets Tommy's shy, clumsy co-worker Daniel.

Now after reading the plot line, this movie would seem to be a simple love triangle that is surely going to be filled with Hollywood clichés. But first time writer/director Julio DePietro was able to bypass this simplicity by creating a group of characters which somehow represent people we have all known at some point in our lives. The great acting from all the players allowed me to connect to them and the writing, which has a lot of foreshadowing, makes many references to classic tales of love, strife and the life long search of finding out who we are, who we want to be and, most of all, who we want to share it with.

So allow yourself to escape for 90 minutes or so and realize that, in the end , all that really matters is........

I couldn't give away the secret; you will have to see for yourself.
