Luke P Jul 13, 2017 Bad as everything Lopez directs. A great subject, a great cause, entirely dwarfed by the director's need to be celebrated.
Albus W Mar 11, 2017 This is a must see for all men and women. This movie should also be more accessible, so as to spread this information faster and open the eyes of the public. See more
