Great Beast!



I tottered along to the movies to see Beasts of the Southern Wild without much expectations of what I was about to watch. So I wasn't disappointed! I was taken to another world of beautiful imagery and a storey different to any other about a girl called Hushpuppy and her life in the Bathtub. A shanty town near a levee which separates them from the consumerism & mechanical world. I am no film critic but I would say go and see it, it brought a tear to my eye, was humorous, loving and a celebration of life. The New York Times are, so have a read here if you want to know more. Please don't, however, take into the account the comparable to 'Tree of Life' with Brad Pitt, that was a rubbish movie if I have ever seen one!
