Other good Dvd's

Since I am using this blog to keep track of my viewing/reading, I thought I'd throw in last week's DVD's.

The World According to Sesame Street. we watch a lot of sesame street here. i didn't realize how international it was! i like the fact the show adapts so much to each country. and good coverage of the cotroversy surrounding the african version, with an HIV positive muppet. i remember when that made headlines as not "necessary" - but in africa, that is seen by thousands of children orphaned by AIDS. it speaks to their reality, and i applaud their efforts.

paper clips. what a great film. i just bought this one, so can share it with friends. proves that history can come alive with the right teacher, and how important it is for us to look at the past and remember always.

went to the MFA yesterday, saw the Paris fashion 2006 show. excellent! and how interesting that i felt like i knew somuch about fashion, thanks to project runway! i looked at all the beautiful clothes (art?) with a somewhat trained eye.

in other news, tim gunn bobblehead came in. he's sitting in the bedroom, watching over our fashion choices. (??) yay!
