		<description><![CDATA[James Cameron&#8217;s Avatar succeeds in its epic storytelling by taking a number of familiar myths and stories and subverting their preordained outcome to create a familiar but new story.  These myths and stories include the classic intermediaries of Gandhi, George Steven&#8217;s Shane, Prometheus, and Moses.  By taking elements from each one of these [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently took in two movies, BOOK OF ELI and AVATAR. One ostensibly religious, the other more vague.
BOOK OF ELI, set in a post-apocalyptic world, shows a hero driven against all odds to fulfill his mission.  Not as much of an emotional journey as it could have been, except in approved sound bites that Christians might [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[How do you de-Clooney George Clooney?
From Clooney’s work with Soderbergh, back to his stint on ER, the man oozes charisma and charm. He epitomizes calm, cool and collected.
