Yaunna, the Maori ... Feb 2005
For Christmas, Mommy (that's me) bought "The Whale Rider" for the fam -- we LOVE that movie. I bawled like a 2-day-old piglet when I saw it. Sooo wonderful and poignant. Makes me want to move to New Zealand and beg the Maori to let me live in their beachside village. Anyway, the kids thought the whole process of learning to become a warrior (as depicted in the movie) was pretty fun, so they immediately took to beating their chests and sticking their tongues out at one another in competitive effort to out-scare their opponent. The Girl beats her chest, sticks the tongue out, does her best to look freaky-scary; then Stink (aka Bren) follows suit. Not too much scary going on -- more like an eruption into hysterical fits of giggling on the floor. So much for that Maori dream.
