Four women and three men look for happiness in an unhappy world, realising, sooner or later, that happiness is fleeting and masked by their period's societal beliefs and life's relentless tribulations. The Hours is the greatest movie ever made; a masterpiece like no other, with music composed for the Cosmos.

The Matrix
If your sky is blue, take the blue pill; if not, take the red one. What do you mean? We exist in a present future where most of us are unknowingly living within a simulated reality created by well-meaning machines that control and harvest humanity's inherent energy, sparing all trees.

Winnie the Pooh
I have shared four children's books written by A.A. Milne and his very best friend. He wrote all these stories for his son Christopher Robin. Winnie the Pooh is also known as Edward Bear or as Christopher Robin sometimes called him Silly Old Bear. There are some friendships real and imaginary that last a lifetime and this friendship is one of them.

The Rifleman
'The Rifleman' starring Chuck Conners was a television western about Lucas McCain and his son Mark in the town of North Fork near Laramie. In each episode there was a lesson to learn whether for an adult or a child. I remember the beginning when Lucas is slowly walking shooting the rifle rapid fire with Chuck Conners staring at the camera. This was a series that was before my time, but I have seen a few reruns from time to time. It was a series that followed a particular sequence from episode to episode. There is a crime and investigation of sorts and a solution sought after and a decision made.
