Dear America: Letters Home from Vietnam is a documentary based on the book which printed letters from the soldiers and nurses who served in Vietnam.This movie is so powerful precisely because it is so simple. Using real letters written by US soldiers and archive footage, the film creates a highly personal experience of the Vietnam War.An intensely moving and disturbing experience. It shows a more human story of the war than we see in most media outlets and reveal real people in real situations trying to explain or understand.It has no plot except that thousands of young men went to a faraway country and had unspeakable experiences there, and many of them died or were wounded for life in body or soul.You can buy Dear America - Letters Home from Vietnam.

Every spring there are thousands of Connecticut parents of college bound high school students who are devastated when they realize that the awards letter that they received from the colleges that their child applied to are substantially short of meeting the true cost of attendance. This happens because the college's award letter does not meet the student's financial needs either in the total amount of aid or in the type of aid and the student can appeal the award on that basis to the college. <br><br>Every college has an appeal process that allows students to request a review of their financial aid eligibility and corresponding financial aid award offer.

I am kind of old school, you might say. I suppose my attitude reflects a partriarchal mindset. But I was raised with a certain set of values. Within that set of values was the rule that boys don't hit girls. There was something pretty cowardly about a boy who would take out his violence on a girl.The ones whom you might think would keep this value would be clergymen of my era of an evangelical persuasion. They must have learned the same values as I learned. Real men don't gang up to pick on women. That is a value that most of us I hope would have expanded to this ethical principle: the strong don't pick on the weak.The recent high profile court cases in our denomination show that some of our clergymen are not real men at all but cowards.Take the case of Rev. Jane Spahr.For four

This short shows evidence of American cartoonist, specifically from the UPA studios. Dusan Vukotic takes cues from modern art and graphic design. Figures consist of simple geometric shapes and most of their movements are either parallel to one of their edges or else curvilinear. Despite this minimalism, the characters are identifiable as characters, and within the boundaries of fable the story works just fine.The Substitute was the first film produced outside the USA to win an Oscar for best animated short.It's a simple story about the man who comes to the beach and uses inflatable objects for all of his needs.You can buy The Best of Zagreb Film: Be Careful What You Wish For/The Classic Collection.
