Glory and Grief in DVD

Out in DVD this week are two Oscar nominated films from 2009. Invictus is a good sports drama based on real events surrounding South Africa, Nelson Mandela and the World Cup. The Messenger is a dramatic story of soldiers charged with the daunting task of notifying the families of fallen soldiers. Compelling and touching. Both films worth a look.

I really want to see both of these, so perfect timing on the reviews. They will go in my Netflix queque for sure. I haven't been to the theater in like a month & I miss it, but I'm just not that excited by the slate of summer movies right now.
