Two Movies...

THE DARK HORSE 
 Wow... I came out of this movie shell shocked...
But it's worth seeing.
The gang violence is horriffic but... A true
story about Genesis Potini, a Maori Bio-Polar
chess genius who rescues his nephew Mana -
played by James Rolleston - of 'Boy' fame -
from his father's gang life.
An excellent and extremely well acted story.



THE HUNDRED FOOT JOURNEY
This is a  lovely stress-free movie...
The opening of a new Indian restaurant in the
south of France over the road from a famous
Michelin-starred eatery, is nearly the cause for
all out war... But all ends well.
Helen Mirren is her usual brilliant
self as Madam Mallory.

I went to see both of these movies at the
Te Ahu Centre in Kaitaia. It's a fabulous place
to spend time.  As well as a cinema there is the
library, the museum and a cafe with good coffee.
