New and Highly Recommended
- BELLA
A very lovely and loving family video about the affects of childhood on your adult relationship as well as the powerful healing of being able to give love and to receive love.
- ARRANGED
A gentle, lovely movie about a young Muslim woman and a young Jewish woman who are both teachers. Beautifully unfolds the power of family, values, norms, tradition, and Mature/Lasting Love.
- AUGUST RUSH
Starring Robin Williams, along with others who are excellent and not as well known. A feel good family movie about the power of love, our universal connection, and the brilliance and creativity in our world. The music is outstanding, the child is a stunning actor. The story is actually believable because the actors are genuine. A modern day OLIVER. A must see.
Documentaries
- ON NATIVE SOIL
A very well done documentary about 9/11. Many of the family members of those who gave their lives that day insisted a commission be formed to invest and make public knowledge what happened. An amazing example of the power of quiet determination to be seen and listened to. And a very healing moment when Richard Clarke admits being negligent and asks for forgiveness.
- THE WEEPING CAMEL
I haven't seen this yet. Highly recommended by a colleague. Let me know how you feel about it if you see it before I do! I will put my comments in when I have some to put in.
Old ones that still work very well!
- CASABLANCA
A powerful movie about moving from Romantic Love/Lust to Mature/Lasting Love. This excellent, old movie is absolutely worth seeing again soon.
- ORDINARY PEOPLE
Remember that Mary Tyler Moore favourite of long ago??!! So painful and so well done. Really shows the healing that happens when one can tell their story and feel seen and understood. As well, the power effects on everyone in the family of loss and words unspoken.
Not so old, well done, and painful
- COLD MOUNTAIN
Emotional growth when feeling seen and valued. Power and transformation of love.
- DREAMER
Emotional death when frightened and unable to resolve loss. Emotional strength and change when one feels believed in and believes in self. The healing power of joy and connection.
Write to me about a movie or video that you feel is a good Imago fit. I would love to have it on my ever changing list. Feel free to write your review. I will include that as well.
