HOUSE vs. HOME



"We bought a house.
Your mother made it a home."
--My dad
Architecture, decor, neighborhood--all these play a part in turning a house into a home.  But, of course, what matters most are the people inside. That's something my dad taught me a long time ago.  For Carl, the septuagenarian main character of Up, that realization comes only after a flight halfway across the world and many many thousand balloons--and thank goodness, because we get to be a part of his poignant journey in this remarkable and deeply touching movie.

DIVA DVD:  Up.  Teaser trailer via RawkusBixhu on YouTube.com. For the official Disney/Pixar trailer click here.  And don't be fooled by the animation and animals--this movie is really for adults.
