I just saw a great movie.
It's called "August Rush."
It is also NOT a great movie.
Completely predictable.
It is also a GREAT movie, completely magical.
It reminded me of what art should be: It should be inspiring.
Art should be like spirituality, it should call on us to be our very best, no half-steppin'.
Art is meant to be more than entertainment.
At its height, it should remind us to reach for more, to be present, to be grateful, to live as though it matters.
The screenplays I am at work on, are certainly entertaining, but I don't know that they reach the level of art.
I don't know that they stir the Soul.
Maybe that is what I will work on next......
Have some fun ,,,,, see this... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/August_Rush
