Ang Lee's, "Life of Pi, 3-D" Article by Sharon Abella, www.1worldcinema.com

"It is a great honor to open the 50th Anniversary of ‘The New York Film Festival.’  I am a New York filmmaker, so it doesn’t get much better than this. Most people know never to make a film featuring kids, water, or 3D, however, ‘Life of Pi’ is such an incredible story, that I had to take on the challenge. Thank you to Yann Martel (writer of the best-selling novel), as it is a story that gives our lives meaning. It represents four years of hard work and ...

“Yogawoman” Narrated by Annette Bening, Article by Sharon Abella

user
I am “Yogawoman,” hear me Om!  As strange as this may seem, until fairly recently, the ancient Indian tradition of yoga, was practiced only by men.  It has been written in Indian scripture, that women were thought of as obstacles to enlightenment and were not invited to participate.  Today, out of the 20 million people who practice in the US alone, 85% of them, are women. This physical, mental, and spiritual philosophy has helped many people find purpose in ...

“Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted in 3-D” Article by Sharon Abella, www.1worldcinema.com

user
“They can take the animals out of the animals, but they can not TAKE the ANIMALS out of the ANIMALS!” Most of the time I am disappointed in the 3-D effects in most movies. They are usually not very vivid and I think to myself the studio just wanted to charge more money, however, this is NOT the case with “Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted.”  In this computer-animated comedy, the 3-D effects are brilliant, and worth the price difference. &...
