The Audacity of ‘Precious’
My girlfriend’s brother, Tom Heller, produced a movie coming out in a few weeks called Precious.  There’s an article in this week’s New York Times about the film.  I went to a screening in NY this past weekend.  It’s a powerful, moving film that won the Grand Jury & Audience Awards at Sundance as well as Best Film at the Toronto Film Festival.  Coming soon to a theatre near you.  Don’t miss it.

ReelDirector

The ReelDirector iPhone app offers excellent video editing features including the ability to stitch together multiple clips and options to add transitions or titles right from your phone.  It’s like iMovie for your phone. Sweet!

Peak Performance

About a year ago, I wrote about Chris Waddell, an inspiring guy I went to high school with who was paralyzed in a skiing accident at 20 years old.  After later becoming the most decorated male skier in Paralympic history, Chris set his sights on becoming the first paraplegic person to summit Mt. Kilimanjaro.  This is a CBS News segment chronicling his adventure.  Incredibly, Chris made it to the summit on September 30th!  What an amazing story.
