‘The Little Mermaid’: Halle's Musical Debut Rockets to $400+ Million Dollar Box Office
Halle's belting, crystal clear notes, and warm tone infused something into this blockbuster that I thoroughly enjoy.

There are still some unlikely spaces in the cities.There is a house in Barcelona, in the Gràcia neighborhood, which has a garden full of trees and plants and in the background sculptures surrounded by tiles. María, a 35-year-old Argentinian, recently separated from her partner, and her daughter Isabel, a six-year-old Catalan who is starting school, live there through some black hole in the rents. They are visited by Iara, sister of one and aunt of the other, and several of their friends. As we watch María and Isabel interact with their loved ones, the film sensibly explores the interior and exterior spaces that make up those relationships.

Disney has cleverly managed to dance around the misdeeds of their past by scraping by with an insincere action that does very little to incite any long-lasting positive changes.
The most impressive aspect of this film is the honest and natural performances given by the on-screen duo.
“Reboot” is crass and sometimes incoherent, and has much room to improve, but with investments of time and care, could flower out of the seed of a vision.
Steven Soderbergh’s Contagion is a fan-favorite, as are some of the more science fiction angled movies like 28 Days Later or World War Z. I recently watched the 1995 Wolfgang Peterson-directed movie, Outbreak for the first time, which is currently available on Netflix.
