Malcolm X Spike Lee’s‚ Malcolm X‚ is one of the greatest screen biographies; celebrating the whole sweep of an American life that began in sorrow and bottomed out on the streets and in prison before its hero reinvented himself.

With impeccable production values and a truly great performance by the lead actor‚ Cesar Montano‚ "Jose Rizal" is the equal of anything that Hollywood can produce. The movie tells the life story of Jose Rizal‚ the national hero of

Reaction on Reaction Paper The first thing that came to my mind when I have heard about Reaction paper is “What exactly is it?” and before I get an understanding of that‚ I resisted that change.
