Trevin's "What I've Been Watching"!

Get Low - While this was a very small film in scale, it was quite an achievement. The praise must begin with Robert Duvall, who gave an incredible performance that should get some attention come awards season. While most actors could have easily ruined this character, Duvall perfectly captured the humor of the character along with the struggles and emotions. Bill Murray once again proves he is arguably the best character actor working today with his subtle yet hilarious performance as a struggling owner of a funeral home. The film even found a role for Lucas Black, who normally gets on my nerves, but he more or less held his own throughout. If you get a chance to see this, you must. It's quite good.

The Princess and the Frog - It really is a shame they've almost completely gone away from hand-drawn animation, and this film shows why. The animation is beautiful, and I still believe hand drawn animation allows for another level of creativity than computer animation. I also found this film to be very clever, and quite fun to watch. I'm also glad to see a Disney movie that's not afraid to explore some darker tones, which they did back in the day, but have gone away from as of late. In closing, you should see this one, I think they're something for everyone to enjoy.

"Modern Family": Season 1 - I started watching this show due to the critical acclaim it's been receiving, culminating in it's big night at the Emmy's, and I am glad I did. While there are some episodes that drag, and there are slow moments here and there, this show is one of, if not the funniest show on television currently. I recommend getting into this one before the new season picks up.

"Weeds": Season 6: Episode 3 - This show continues to develop some potentially interesting ideas, but the jury's still out on whether or not they will work. It is still a far cry from what the earlier seasons were, but there is a bit of potential going forward, enough to keep me watching.
