As we get closer to the premiere on April 21, I\u2019ll write more about the series\u2019s journey. For now I just want to share the official trailer for \u2018Dear Mama\u2019 with my Nelson George Mixtape readers, because its been one of the most interesting and fullfilling creative experiences I\u2019ve ever been apart of. I\u2019ve known Allen since 1992, but it was our first time working together and a true pleasure.
While Burley does indeed make some pretty fancy trailers that go all the way up to $900, their Burley Bee trailer provides a high-quality, fewer-frills option for parents on a more reasonable budget. Coming in just under $350, the Bee will let you get outdoors with those kiddos while keeping those sweat glands in check.
It is easy to attach or remove the tow-bar from the bike, even one-handed and even with the kiddo in the trailer. The weight sits back on the wheels so that the tow-bar seems to feel weightless and is easy to move and direct the trailer where you need it.
We also love the very roomy storage compartment on the back of the trailer. When we are riding with the bike seat, I typically wear a pack to carry snacks, first-aid, etc. The Bee can carry all that we need and more! It is nice not to have to wear a pack in the heat of summer, and it opens up more options for activities along the way and for taking longer rides together. We can pack a full picnic, swimsuits and towels, balls or toys, even our golden retriever! (Ok, not really, but close.) We can pack spare gear in case of rain or stash extra layers if we need to add/shed some throughout the day.
Shappley began accepting her transgender daughter Kai and went from being a Tea Party Republican to winning awards for her LGBTQ+ advocacy after she joined with the ACLU and Equality Texas to fight an anti-trans bathroom bill in their Texas town. Cunningham learned to accept her gay son Parker and went on to form Free Mom Hugs, a movement of mothers offering support to the LGBTQ+ community. Morris found support in the mama bears and went from marrying a man to living her truth as a queer person.
Dear Mama is directed by Allen Hughes and premieres this fall. The trailer features images of Tupac overlapping in a collage-like fashion. Additionally, a voice-over details how Afeni would challenge her son to debates to teach him how to advocate for his beliefs.
As we are currently inundated with "found footage" jump scares in mainstream theaters, it's refreshing to get back to the bloody roots of good old fashion horror.  I'm wagering that nothing you've seen this year is as creepy as Mama.  From producer Guillermo del Toro and director Andres Muschietti comes a new international trailer for Mama, starring Jessica Chastain and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau.  Centering on a man (Coster-Waldau) and his girlfriend (Chastain) who take care of his nieces after they are found in the wild, the trailer reveals (perhaps too much) that they did not survive on their own.  Check out the previous trailer for Mama here and hit the jump to compare it to the newer, creepier (and perhaps more spoilery) one. Check out the new international trailer for Mama (via /Film).  Mama is due out January 18th, 2013:[EMBED_YT] -ngqwc7gmI[/EMBED_YT]Here's the synopsis for Mama:
"We haven't talked to Mama," Lauryn "Pumpkin" Efird, 23, says in the trailer, "since our court battle over Alana's child support." (In July, People reported that Pumpkin was granted full custody of her younger sister Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson, now 17, with June required to pay $800 per month in child support fees.)
Jessica Chastain (decked out in a black bob and dark wardrobe that highlights her vague resemblance to a young Angelina Jolie) plays the woman who ends up being a surrogate mother for two children who lived alone in the woods after their parents were killed. But the childrens' real mother may not be entirely gone, and she might not be entirely OK with the new family arrangement. See the trailer below.
Here's a long synopsis. Mama opens on January 18, with Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Megan Charpentier, and Isabelle Nelisse co-starring. Apple has the trailer in HD.
I live in the northern part of Turtle Island in a small village. One day, i was humbled as i received a true blessing offered by Mama Irene from her through Pachamama. Undeniable, sustainable and nurturing. The feeling of that moment is reflected here. All blessings and love exist in true reality. k
