Hollywood knew this weekend would be a movie graveyard, what with "The
Hobbit" coming next week and sucking all the air out of the box office,
destining any new movie release to financial obscurity.
The masses at theaters this weekend, therefore, were left to choose between seeing an old release or a generic romantic comedy that's widely panned and expected to flop.
Therefore, I'm breaking from my usual theater routine to review a film just released on DVD called "Follow Me: The Yoni Netanyahu Story."
Most folks are familiar with Benjamin "Bibi" Netanyahu, the current Israeli prime minister, but now thanks the "Follow Me," the remarkable story of Bibi's older brother, Yoni, can enrich the lives of Americans especially, who may not know of the poet warrior who inspired a nation and its future leader.
And this word, "inspiration," characterizes both Yoni's life and the movie now made about it.
Watch the trailer:
