"Angels inhabit the earth and long to be human because the pain and love of mortality is beautiful. Wim Wenders mixes color with black and white, dialogue with voice-over, aerial with handheld cinematography, and the historical with the magical in this intimate, poetic vision of ordinary life. This film came out when I was in college and was so new and fresh that many of us saw it on a weekly basis."

Disneys big budget blockbuster had so much potential. The rich mythology and beautiful historical setting could have been used more fully to create something more engaging. And although its Disney, malificent showed how adding some darkness can create a better movie. Also the feminist angle could have been explored more deeply and with more potential for awkward comedy. This was still an entertaining family movie but could have been so much more

What does poetry have to do with social activism? A whole lot, actually, as you'll find out in Jane Davis's novel "My Counterfeit Self" and through my #bookreview of this historical, contemporary, women's literary fiction novel on my blog now. (I think this has just become my favorite of her books, as it just edged out "Smash All the Windows" by a whisker!)<br/>https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2019/05/11/a-poetically-explosive-story/<br/>;
