Hidalgo; Religulous----

----finally I am caught up for this month. I watch the films but am too tired and sleepy to post on this blog.

Hidalgo (2004) Viggo Mortensen, Omar Sharif. Hidalgo, a mustang horse, is the star of this story and film. His journey across the world to enter a harrowing race across the Sahara desert is just cruel and unusual punishment for man or beast. I really could not enjoy the film for worrying about the animals. After all - the humans are supposed to have brains and hearts. These people showed no signs of it, but the horses were magnificent, 8/10 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0317648/

Religulous (2008) Documentary. Bill Maher's take on the current state of worlds religions. Very funny at times and sad also. The wars and hate caused by religion, in which all preach 'love' is enough to make one crazy. 8/10 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0815241/

It is "lay by" time for gardeners, so will be indoors more as the hot afternoons start here in the Heartland. Lots of DVDs and Tapes on my table ready to watch. Hi-ho-----
