My Opinion: The most incredible and inspiring
movie for all ages is now showing, "The Book of Life." This
fictional story brings to life a Mexican tradition, "The Day of
the Dead." The subject of death is handled very carefully and with
the sense that the spirit is always with us. The movie is filled with folk
art that is bright and lively. The characters are wooden looking and fun to
watch. The movie sound track is a blend of American and Mexican music like
nothing I have ever heard before. The movie teaches, inspires and reminds us to
forgive and love more. It is a must see with the entire family.
Music: The soundtrack
to the movie is a mixture of American and Mexican music. The music and art made this movie into an
amazing piece work of art. Our favorite
song from this movie was “The Apology Song”, because it was inspiring. Let me share with you a few of the songs that
appear on the Track listing:
