The problem with most movies people should see? The folks who should see them don't have the patience. <br /><br />Take my high school students for example. They collectively have the patience of a couple of gnats. They wouldn't sit down for Kwai. <br /><br />Oh, what they are missing...Aaron Polsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15173267932358617304noreply@blogger.com
