"American Gangster" is the latest film by the fantastic Ridley Scott, whose filmography includes such notable products as "Thelma and Louise," "Black Hawk Down," "Blade Runner" and "Alien"-and the occasional stinker, like "Hannibal" or "Kingdom of Heaven."

A German lady comes to America to marry a man she has never met. She wants a family and home. The world does not welcome people who are from Germany. This ties in somewhat to how people are treated even in today's world. The young woman has to learn English. She tries several times to get the proper papers to get married. Shot down everytime. Her fiance receives little help from the community. This is a lovely story based on the novel A Tombstone Made of Wheat. The movie does not follow the plot of the book which could have made the ending more exciting.

VERMILLION, S.D. – Saturday was movie night for the American Indian Journalism Institution. I chose one particular movie for its comedy.

“It was a good movie,” I said after I watched it.

This comedy is about two strangers who hook up at a club and then have a baby together.

At first it seemed like a mistake and it was sad when actress Katherine Heigl, playing Alison Scott, cried in the gynecologist's office when she first learned that she was pregnant.
