- Away from Her (2006)
- A deep and melancholy love story that deals with the impact of Alzheimer’s in its early stages on a couple whom have been together 44 years. Beautiful.
- Joseph Campbell and the Power of Myth (1988)
- While it may be difficult to find a version to purchase, copies of this series are still available for rent at some of our better video stores and libraries in the community. This is a wonderful collection of interviews with the late Joseph Cambell that cover the universal human experiences of birth, love, the hero's journey, and death. A must see.
- Pan's Labyrinth (2006)
- A haunting and beautifully told tale that does not spare us of its portrayal of the brutality of human trauma. Its fundamental message however is one of hope and a belief in the ability of the human imagination and soul to find meaning in even the darkest of places.
- The Lord of the Rings - The Motion Picture Trilogy (2004)
- One of the most beautiful retellings of the classic "heroes journey".
- Truly Madly Deeply (1991)
- A simultaneously sad and joyful reflection on the process of loss and grief. It encourages us first to mourn deeply, and then ultimately to let go and live again.
