Hi David,
I went to see "Akeelah and the Bee" when it opened.
I have been too tied up with Jury Duty and the NAB tradeshow to say anything about it. I want to let you know that I enjoyed the movie and contrary to a pre release review I read that the end was obvious I found it very interesting and a nice finish. It is great that it is a top ten and got two great ratings on yahoo.com

Did you shoot in the real location of the national spilling bee? The style of the cinematography was interesting and specifically in the camera movements. One that stands out is the circular camera moves such as the one when Laurence Fishburne is outside and being confronted about his past... was this something that was planned during the pre production?
congraduations. I Hope to see more soon.
Truly
Kim
