Thisfunktional Magazine Issue 8 B | Page 2

P AGE 01 This issue has actually two covers because it was difficult to decide on just one. The content of each is the same but the cover is different. The first cover is for “Sin City: A Dame to Kill for” as it is made by the rebel without a crew Robert Rodriguez and has many talented people who worked on it, from the great storyteller and animator Frank Miller to the various fantastic actors who have made the characters of “Sin City” seductive. The story continues with more characters being brought forth and stronger stories being introduced. The new film is set to come out in theaters August 22. The second cover goes to an inspirational film that has been 18 years in the making. “The Giver” has been a project that actor and producer Jeff Bridges has been passionate about. The project was something Bridges was passionate about making. He was adamant in seeing this project made right. Its a story which makes a comment on the human condition and just what makes people human. The subject matter inspires thought and brings about a new sense of looking at the emotions that bring about the morals that keep society running smoothly. The inspirational film has a fantastic cast and crew that all gave the impression to be proud of being involved with such a project. “The Giver” comes out in theaters on August 15. It’s a good movie for the whole family.
