When his plane makes an emergency landing in Siberia, ballet dancer Nikolai Rodchenko (Mikhail Baryshnikov) is recognized as a defector and brought into custody. Returned to Leningrad and reunited with his former love, aging prima ballerina Galina Ivanova (Helen Mirren), Nikolai meets American dancer Raymond Greenwood (Gregory Hines), who defected to the Soviet Union during the Vietnam War but has secretly grown disenchanted. Together, they plot an escape to the American consulate and freedom.
A suspenseful movie that depicts the strength of the human spirit who will fight at any cost to gain its freedom. Life can be a challenge when you cannot make your own decisions. These two strangers will work together to obtain the thing that most people take for granted, freedom. They will forge a friendship that will be tested throughout this movie. Mikhail Baryshnikov's flawless performances are breathtaking to watch. I studied ballet for 15 years and watching him dance with such grace and purity has always taken my breath away and inspired me to let my passion for dance soar.

Juicy Fruit Starburst Strawberry Gum
Taste like a sweet and delicious strawberry flavoured Starburst candy chew. Not as long lasting as a peppermint flavoured gum but a nice change. Doesn't turn into rubber once the flavor runs out. My gang gives it a thumbs up.

After the death of his wife, Sam Baldwin (Tom Hanks) moves to Seattle with his son, Jonah (Ross Mallinger). When Jonah calls in to a talk-radio program to find a new wife for his father, Sam grudgingly gets on the line to discuss his feelings. Annie Reed (Meg Ryan), a reporter in Baltimore, hears Sam speak and falls for him, even though she is engaged. Unsure where it will lead, she writes Sam a letter asking him to meet her at the Empire State Building on Valentine's Day.
Such a sweet and romantic movie about destiny. Soul mates have a way of finding each other no matter the obstacles that cross their paths. Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan have such chemistry in this movie and bring these two lost souls to life.

After a psychedelic experience in the California desert, Jim Morrison (Val Kilmer), lead singer of The Doors, and his bandmates begin performing in Los Angeles and quickly become a sensation. However, when Jim begins ditching his musical responsibilities and his girlfriend, Pamela (Meg Ryan), in favor of his dangerous addictions and the affections of the seductive, occult-obsessed Patricia (Kathleen Quinlan), the band starts to worry about their leader.
Val Kilmer gives a brilliant performance of the talented and troubled Jim Morrison. He literally became Jim Morrison in this movie. A great cast that brought to life a band that changed history with their music. A sad story of a life cut too short. An honest portrayal of a musical group who came together to make music during a time where drug addictions were running rampant. An interesting movie with great timeless music.
