Having never heard anything like it, Rachel has a miraculous experience. Three months later, Rachel turns up pregnant and claims to have had an immaculate conception from listening to the music. Rachel's parents arrange a marriage for Rachel, but Rachel runs away to the closest city, Las Vegas, to search for the man who sings on the cassette tape, thinking he has something to do with her mysterious pregnancy.
Weekly Recommendation: Skyfall is exciting and a lot of fun – the grittier
modern take on the franchise is infused with throwbacks – but it’s not
completely satisfying. With jaw-dropping action, Mendes’ steady direction, Deakins’
astounding visual spectacle and the return of a memorable villain, there
are lots of reasons to check out the return of Bond to the big screen. I haven't seen any of the other films released this week, but as I liked 2 Days in Paris I would be interested in checking out the sequel.
