I MUST see this film. Thank you for writing about it.

What did you think of “Skywalkers, a love story”? I thought it was spectacular on so many levels. Heard the director interviewed on a podcast. Fascinating how he navigated ethical, physical, legal and narrative challenges.

Even though both films are quite different, I find myself seeking out stories that provide an endorphin rush. And this story fits the bill.

“Mister Popper’s Penguins was my favorite book. I wanted a pet Penguin in the worst possible way, but we lived on the 10th floor so I had to settle for crafting a homemade Slip ‘n Slide with my cousin from Dayton (in my carpeted bedroom while the babysitter was watching TV in the den). This film sounds wonderful.

Those exist. They are called the Patsys.
