Trailer: Yoga Is

Posted on September 24, 2012 at 4:28 pm

Suzanne Bryant’s new documentary, Yoga Is: A Transformational Journey, will be available tomorrow on DVD.  She thought she had it all until she lost her beloved mother to cancer. Trying to process and understand her profound grief, Suzanne embarked on a journey and turned to a deeper practice of yoga.  Suzanne’s journey led her to India where she studied various disciplines of yoga and met with respected gurus. During her visit, she came face-to-face with a near death experience and discovered that something had shifted within her; the light had returned.  Inspired by her experience, she returned to the U.S. to explore what yoga means to the West and how it can transform lives. What she found was something wonderful: a path that can enable anyone to transform suffering in order to experience daily peace and happiness.

Bill Murray Plays FDR in “Hyde Park on the Hudson”

Posted on September 8, 2012 at 4:57 pm

We’ve seen Bill Murray turn in some impressive performances in dramas as well as comedies, but it still seems like quite a challenge for him to take on the part of and icon like patrician four-time President  Franklin Delano Roosevelt.  But this trailer for “Hyde Park on the Hudson,” based on the events described in the book The Roosevelts and the Royals: Franklin and Eleanor, the King and Queen of England, and the Friendship that Changed History, looks wonderful.  Yes, this is the same king and queen portrayed in The King’s Speech.  And another note — perhaps as fair play after Meryl Streep played Margaret Thatcher, in this film Eleonor Roosevelt is played by British actress Olivia Williams.
