Blow over here and read this {media meditation #1}

The movie Blow when has been one of my favorite movies since it came out. The movie was directed by Ted Demme. Boston George the main character is based off of George Jung the man who established the American cocaine market in the 1970's. One of the reasons this movie is so close to my heart is because in real life George Jung stole his first airplane from the airport in my town.

The movie is fantastic, it fallows Boston George through his life and how he became a success by selling cocaine. From the start Blow captures your attention and keeps it till the end. With Johnny Depp as Boston George there is no wonder that this movie was a hit. "Johnny Depp gives a spellbindingly naturalistic performance that puts a sympathetic face on a powerfully individualistic man unable to shake a world of crime that brought him immense riches and eventually cost him everything he cared about." says Cole Smithey.

    Can you tweak your font style/size to ensure consistency?

    BLOW is a fine film - provocative.
