    Black Swan
    Of Gods and Men

    Man, I wanted to see this! The little lady laughed when I told her the title though...and I think its no longer in the theaters. oh well.

    Kinda a disappointing year in film...

    I like Planet of the Apes the best.
    I also liked Barneys Version.
    Pick up my debut novel here on amazon: Jonny Bails Floatin (in paperback) (also available on Kindle for $2.99)
