In 2005 Warner Bros brought us a movie based on the beloved teen novel Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. Although the book’s author Ann Brashares continued to provide fans with sequels, there were no film follow-ups for three years. This past summer, at long last, the four stars of the first film reunited on the big screen to bring us Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2.

The fans are not the only ones who were excited by this. The stars of the first film got to get back together for the sequel, which was exciting for all of them, and now it is about to hit DVD shelves tomorrow!

Go see Rachel Getting Married. Just do it. Go buy tickets online right now. I can wait.

Rachel Getting Married is that elusive gem among movies: a flawless independent film. The cinematography is stunning. Jonathan Demme’s direction is outstanding. The writing is so brilliant it will make your head hurt. The performances will completely devastate you. And that is, after all, what the film is trying to do.

Rachel Getting Married will rip your heart out of your chest and serve it back to you, still beating, on the tin train plate that used to belong to your deceased little brother. The film is just so beautifully real that you wonder if you can even survive until the end credits.

With a Protestant preacher dad and piano teacher mom, the Jazmin girls grew up in a strict household where TV was banned, no sleepovers were allowed and dating was verboten. So, when they weren’t doing homework, the sisters would channel their energy by singing, dancing and creating artwork. Luckily, their parents supported their talents—from writing their own songs to choreographing their dance routines. 

The Wackness, directed by Jonathan Levine, starring Josh Peck and Ben Kingsley, is a love letter to youth. The film won ‘Best Narrative' feature at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival. If there is one word to describe The Wackness, it is REAL. Never have I seen the ups and downs, or the experience of youth, so fully realized on celluloid than in this movie.

Anyone, no matter what their age, can relate to the lead character of Luke -- at the very least you know someone like him. The film takes place in New York, during the summer of 1994; Bill Clinton was President, and a newly elected mayor Rudy Giuliani was working fast to clean up the streets.
