Film Goodness.

I love myself a good documentary. This past weekend, I watched two that I would highly recommend to my little itty bitty group of readers. (Hi Lauren, Mom, Travis and Sarah!) 

1) The September Issue- a documentary about the American Vogue Editor in chief, Anna Wintour. This was really entertaining and fast-paced, it really is like the Devil Wears Prada. 



2) Restrepo- A really gritty, honest portrayal of a platoon in one of the most dangerous locations in Afghanistan. This documentary is very moving and the filmmakers were so brave to risk their lives just so people could see how much soldiers risk their lives for our country.


Also, if you are in a movie slump (I know I was) then this is a great one to watch. It's touching and very relatable minus the mental hospital part (for most people). At times it actually hits very close to home especially if you've been a teenager in the 21st century...durr. The soundtrack is also awesome.
