Intelligence plus character. That is the mark of true education. Martin Luther King.
Stomp the Yard is a movie about character building, integrity and intelligence. It is a movie on black dancing, university education, team, fratenity and tradition. The ending with the quotation from Martin Luther King sums it all. I was surprised that I find this movie interesting. I am not interested in ghetto dancing but a friend recommended. Maybe I am getting older and more penetrating when it come to movies. I always enjoy movies as an entertainment and never delve further than the exciting action scenes, humorous bits or uplifting music. Now instead of just being entertained, I also look beyond the storyline and go into the deeper level of subtle messages the director intended. It seems like literature class. I am becoming a student of modern literature!
