"Hector and the Search for Happiness", a movie

A good friend recommended this movie and you can get it on Netflix, streaming, for free.  Lovely, funny, poignant, nothing too serious except the question of "what is happiness" which is, of course, impossible to answer. And therein lies the movie. 

Seriously, check it out.  You, all of you, will like it unless all you really watch are Arnold movies about Cyborgs and rat-people or you only like documentaries about the NRA or how glue is made.  Otherwise, I think everyone will like this movie. Not love it, mind you, but like it. Some of you will like it a lot.  

Happy Independence Day.  Be independent.  Create your own Declaration! Fire off your own works.  (Whatever that means.)  Make like John Hancock and sign something!

  1. Watched Hector last night. A movie to enjoy for what it is and then, maybe, even reflect a little bit on your own life and how you think of it. Encourage others to watch it and talk about it. We all might learn something in the process. Ok. back to Jurassic Park and Arnold

  2. Yes, and thanks for that. It does make one think. The happiness thing is so subjective and yet so universal, we all think we know what we want but really, do we?
