****Napoleon Dynamite This is the movie that introduces the world to Jon Heder. Our Bishop's son had a minor part trying to break a Tupperware bowl. He was also an assistant director. I saw this at the movie theater, and as I left the theater I heard one women say this was the worse movie she had every seen, while another young man said it was the best thing he had ever seen. It has a different type of humor, which grows on you the more times you see the movie. Napoleon is fun with "his skills" which show through in the end. I also love this movie because it shows Mormon culture without flaunting it. It has Deseret Industries, rural Preston (which is in Cache Valley where I grew up,) dry farmed wheat, cattle butcher visiting your house, fishing for bass and horse back riding. This are things I grew up with.
****^Rigoletto: This movie is a low-budget film which we received through Featured Families, 1993. It is a musical. It has Joseph Paur as Rigoletto and Ivey Lloyd as Bonnie Nelson, who is put out to work for the mean Rigoletto. The movie is disjointed at times, but listening to Joseph Paur sing "The Curse", and to a lesser extent Ivey Lloyd sing "Music Boxes" is a delight and makes this musical very enjoyable. I have watched this movie over and over. I am always ready to watch it again.
