Distant Thunder (1988)
Good acting, bad film
The one scene that really impressed me was the point where John Lithgow's character does postal on a guy with a knife at a bar. It was many years ago since I've seen this film. I still remember that scene. The instant rage in Lithgow, the fear he had of his own actions, and how freakin big he really is. JL never really seemed like an imposing guy to me till then. Good dramatic actor, would like to see more...
Nature: Wild Horses of Mongolia with Julia Roberts (2000)
Very touching documentary
This is a very touching documentary, where Julia Roberts stays for a time with a mongolian nomadic family. I know there were cameras there, but I really felt like Julia made a significant connection to these people. The irony of a superstar like JR staying with people from such a remote part of the world really did point out our humanity, and possibly screwed up values. Either way, this was an excellent view...
Good job Julia.....
I believe there is a series of documentaries, of which this is one, where famous actors are placed in different situations, where you see beyond the fame of the person by watching them react in their environment. Goldie Hawn at an elephant reserve, Robin Williams swimming with wild dolphins, and now Julia Roberts living with nomadic people in Mongolia.
