Dear Zachary

If you're looking for a good movie to rent/buy and/or you really want to see a movie that boils your blood/makes you bawl your eyes out/stirs your sense of activism, look no further:



"Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son about his Father"
More information can be found at the site: www.dearzachary.com

This documentary was just beautifully made and the love & passion that went into it was unbelievable. I was crying like crazy and The Hubs was getting seriously pissed off during some of the parts (at the movie not at me...just to clarify). It's heavy, but it is definitely a must see.

Kudos to the filmmaker Kurt Kuenne on his labor of love to honor his friend and his friend's parents.  But, the even bigger kudos go to the parents Kate & David Bagby (David is a former sailor) whose outstanding parenting raised a man much beloved and whose tireless efforts for social justice and social justice reform has turned such horrific tragedies into triumphs.


Really, there are no words for this movie other than to go see it.

For Netflix subscribers, you can also view it at home sans DVD.
