D minus 1 and 1/6th by GJ

Fact-Based Films

Just have to recommend, in case you aren’t already a fan, that you give some trial to fact-based, or true-life, type movies. When this idea came to me about ten minutes ago, I quickly jotted down ten subjects that came to mind. I’m sure I have many more that I could list, but just wanted to impress you with what is out there on the surface, at least. (1.) Elderly man drives LAWN MOWER across most of Iowa to make one last call on estranged brother. (2.) Doctor discovers a means to bringing back patients thought to be semi-comatose. (3.) Doctor wins rightful MD degree despite outrageous, humorous, and humane antics. (4.) Physics teacher drives a class of L.A. deprived HS students to reach college credit-bearing test scores.

(5.) Violin teacher teaches small children well enough to give concert at Carnegie Hall. (6.) Teacher develops writers among under-privileged Bronx students. (7.) Elderly man races totally unfit motorcycle to new record speed. (8.) HS orchestra teacher works miracles with HS class. (9.) Football coach mentors challenged man by letting him be HS FB mascot. (10.) Man returns to home after 30(?) years in prison as train robber only to discover hard way that modern methods make it impossible, now. This whole post took less than 30 minutes to share with you. Try ‘em, you’ll like ‘em. Love, GJ.
