I love good movies and I love seeing how everything is put together. While the director is in charge of directing the scenes, the producer is the one There is a recent good movie out there co-produced by Ira Riklis that was released in in April. It’s called Lemon Tree. I first heard about it during a CNN segment and it really got my interest. I won’t spoil it by telling you the plot, see it for yourself. It’s definitely worth a watch.

I have been hearing some pretty good things about the films he is able to put together as a co-producer. He’s got a very unique way of making everything really come together and I look forward to seeing more movies that he has a hand in producing. Especially if they are all like Lemon Tree.

Whenever you take part in an activity it’s important to make sure that you have the right kind of equipment. If you are playing football, then you need to have football helmets and pads. If you are doing competitive riding then you need proper equestrian riding apparel. If you are playing basketball, then you need a good set of Nike basketball shoes. No matter sport you are playing, if you’ve got the right equipment, you’ll have a much more enjoyable time.

I am always interested in new and exciting ways to make extra money on the side. Imagine my surprise to find out that there is actually money to be made being an extra in movies or TV. Pay can range from $100 to $300 a day! Not only can I make extra money, but my secret ambitions to be a star can be maybe even be fulfilled.

Yes, ever since I starred in a play in my high school(no it wasn’t the Hunchback of Norte Dame), I have thought about what it would be like to go to Hollywood and be an actor. I thought about roles in movies or TV and how exciting it would be. I never did make the leap. The closest I came was monthly trips to Cali from Phoenix.

Now I have a family and a steady job and things have changed. I thought I put that notion out of my mind until I discovered Talent6.

Family movies are a great way for families to bond. It’s important that the movies are very family oriented and that you family can use the time to get closer. I have put together a list of five great family movies for you to look at, comment on, and hopefully spend time watching with your family.

1. Facing the Giants – This is powerful movie that explores a man who is hitting rock bottom in his life but then turns to God and many of his problems cease to be problems.

2. George of the Jungle – Its simple humor is understood by all ages and the intelligent way that it handles situations will keep the interest of the adults. It’s an all time favorite in our household.

3. The Best Game Ever Played – This is a compelling story of the triumph of a young golfer against the best golfers in the world. You don’t need to understand or know golf to enjoy this true story.

4. Seabiscuit – This movie can be seen time and time again and you can keep coming back for more. It’s a captivating story of 3 lives that were forever changed around one dedicated horse.

5. Motorcycle Diaries – This is a movie that all should see. It is the story of Che Guevara and his path to understanding. There are a couple of scenes you might want to fast forward through but this film is worth it.
