Travel DVDs

Michael Palin - Himalaya
Michael Palin - Himalaya Beth Says: I secretly have a crush on Michael Palin (if only I was 20 years older!). Himalaya got me really excited about my trip to India and will get you excited about any trip as he makes travel so much fun.

City of God
City of God Beth Says: A very moving film that takes place in the barrios of Rio de Janeiro. Features the music of Seu Jorge.
Earth by Deepa Mehta
Earth Beth Says: It took me awhile to discover Deepa Mehta films. I watched all 3 of this trilogy in a couple of weeks and want more!

Out of Africa
Out of Africa Beth Says: Somehow I missed this flick when it came out in the 80’s It was really refreshing and interesting to watch as grownup :-)
The English Patient
The English Patient (Miramax Collector's Edition) Beth Says: A classic for any romantic who loves travel and being swept away.

Water by Deepa Mehta
Water (2 DVD Special Edition) Beth Says: The last of Deepa Mehta’s trilogy. This is a sad but realistic look at the life of widows in India.
Blood Diamond
Blood Diamond (Widescreen Edition) Beth Says: I guess I’m a sucker for a guy with an accent. Although he’s not really a “good guy”, Leonardo has you falling for him in this look at the African diamond trade. You’ll never look at your bling the same way again.

The Queen
The Queen Beth Says: Although I’m not big into British films, this was an excellent film about the Queen’s response to Diana’s death. Great acting, well done all around.
