The movie business dominates the cinematic arts as the music business dominates the musical arts. Most movies are cash cows and have little to do with art. There are a few rare jewels that somehow find their way to the screen.

The Quran is my favorite book. I have tried to keep a translation of The Masnavi by Jalal-U-Deen Rumi. I also read classic fiction like; The Illiad and The Odessey, King Lear, Othello, A Tale Of Two Cities (Charles Dickens), The Cask Of Amontillado (Poe),Beloved and The Bluest Eyes (Toni Morrison),Go Tell It On The Mountain (James Baldwin) and The Invisible Man (Ralph Ellison). These are tittles that were assigned in school and I read them and did "A" reports but did not fully appreciate them until I re-read them. "Miyamoto Musashi" is a must read as is "Aztec" by Gary Jennings.
Muhammed, Jesus, David, Moses, Abraham and The Budha are my heroes.
