Louder Than A Bomb - This is not your mother's high school poetry contest. As a matter of fact it's not even your high school poetry contest. Louder Than A Bomb is the name of Chicago's annual Youth Poetry Slam, and this film documents some of the contestants and teams in the 2010 Slam. It's a great movie for all ages. The poets and performances are dramatic and moving. I loved LaMar, Adam, Nate and Kevin. Nova was great too, but the young men were strong, strong, strong. Even if you don't pay attention until the end, the final poems are worth the entire movie. It's been playing on the OWN network, so you may not have to rent it. Monday, January 9, 2012
