Traffic Amnesty Program offers hope to thousands of Californians
Shown here is ultra marathoner Karen Bennett with her husband, also an ultra runner, Nattu Natraj. They were married earlier this year and celebrated with long run, a 100-mile event from Squaw Valley to Auburn.
Meet West Sacramento ultra-marathoner Karen Bennett By Monica Stark editor@news-ledger.com Ultra-marathoner Karen Bennett of West Sacramento has a lofty goal- to be the second person ever (the first female ever) to complete the Grand Kona Slam of running. The typical Grand Slam of running is to run the following four 100-mile trail races in one summer: Old Dominion, Western States, Leadville and Wasatch. Each is considered progressively more difficult, and each offers its own tricks and treats, according to Runners World Magazine. But the Grand Kona Slam includes the aforementioned events with Hawaiian Ironman Triathlon World Championships added in for good measure. Only one other person, Paul Terranova of Texas, completed that informal event in
2012. “There is only one other person who has completed the Grand Slam and Kona in the same year -- This is the Kona Slam. I want to be the second person, and I fully intend to give it my all when the next opportunity arrives,” Karen said. Karen was on pace to complete her goal this year before an injury during Wasatch took hold this year. Karen completed the first three races in the Grand Slam Series and at mile 10 of Wasatch, she fell into a hole and fractured her Distal Fibula. “I did not know it at the time as we thought it was a bad sprain and I could work it out. Three miles later, I was picked up by some people riding their ATV on the road and they insisted I walk no further. I had a pretty
bad hobble. So of 400 miles, I did 313, ugh.” “When I fell at Wasatch I went down hard and in a lot of pain. A very loud scream accompanied this as well. I was running this with my friend Ernie Floyd. When he heard me scream, he ran down the hill to help rescue me. Many runners helped assist me, gave me tape to wrap my ankle, gave me Ibuprofen, and biofreeze. “Ernie and his son helped me get back on my feet and work it out. Again, we thought it was a bad sprain. Ernie stayed with me for about two miles as we got to the top of the climb. It took us over two hours to do those two miles. “I begged him to go on as this would be his 10th Wasatch finish and that is what he was striving to attain. He finally left me and I kept on as I was hobbling down
the mountain for three miles to the aid station. A mile into my lonely painful journey, three ATV came up and stopped to see if I was ok. This was the moment reality was hitting me and I fell into tears. They persisted with kindness to take me down the mountain, so I got a ride down. My dream was crushed, my year ended with a slam as I came to realize my ankle was not good. “My husband was to pace me at night but since I did not finish he was able to pace Ernie. I took Nattu to Brighton Lodge where we waited for Ernie to arrive. When he did he was ready to quit, but with food and force on our part Nattu and Ernie departed. Ernie did finish his 10th Wasatch and received a ring for this 1,000 See Runner, page 4
Jazz doing fine in West Sacramento By Julia McMichael West Sacramento has a long vibrant tradition of jazz. For many years, the Sacramento Traditional Jazz Society was located on Del Monte Avenue as was Tower Records. The El Rancho Hotel (now the Dharma Realm) and the Jazzyblues Cafe are a part of West Sacramento’s jazz history. But jazz lives on at River City High School under the care of an amazing teacher, Felicia Greenwood Weatherly. Felicia knew she wanted to be a musician when she was in seventh grade. Felicia fell in love with jazz when she was 15 and was attending her first Jazz Jubilee with her parents. At that festival, she found a flier for the jazz camp and she applied. She soon took up the clarinet and became a student at the jazz education program run by the STJS. She played in their ensemble, The New Traditionalists and attended their summer jazz camp at Sly Park. The summer jazz camp divided the students into bands and paired them up with master jazz players who coached their bands and provided specific instrument instruction. As the Camp Director, Bill Dendle says, “younger musicians are exposed to people who have played for a long time and can encourage them.” The emphasis is on music performance. Felicia returned to the jazz camp each summer, then became a counselor and finally a head counselor. She graduated to the adult camp and happily returned to the camp with her family. Dendle says, “It is a paradigm that music jazz campers go into music education. Those who go through the camp bring music to their schools.” When asked why students are drawn to traditional jazz, Dendle responds,
The current Sea-Monkeys “it has some of the elements of rock ’n roll such as a strong rhythmic center. They also can play without the constraints of something being written down. They don’t have to be a virtuoso.” When asked about Felicia, Dendle said “music plays a huge role in her life.” After graduating from California State University, Sacramento, Felicia did have job offers, but she was interested in River City High School. The school now has four fulltime music teachers, 60 marching band students, 26 jazz band students, 32 orchestra, 14 advanced ensemble, 40 in choir, two gui-
tar groups and two piano groups. The music program also features electronic music, drum lines, an award winning wind ensemble, symphonic band and a jazz combo. When Felicia began the program, River City High School had one band and two choirs. Her one demand for taking the job was that there be a jazz band added to the curriculum. The jazz band became the Syncopating Sea Monkeys, one of the few traditional high school jazz bands in the country. The Sea Monkeys See Jazz, page 9
Long seen as a rite of passage for teenagers, a driver’s license represents far more than that to most Californians. A valid driver’s license is a vital link to employment, independence and long-term individual and family stability. For those with unpaid traffic and non-traffic infraction tickets, however, insurmountable court fines have led to the loss of the privilege to drive, leaving little realistic hope of ever climbing out of the abyss. Thanks to a new law, hope has been restored. October 1, 2015, marked the kick-off of Governor Jerry Brown’s statewide traffic amnesty program. The purpose of the traffic amnesty program is to provide relief in the form of reduced fines and release of associated driver’s license suspensions to qualified individuals who have found themselves in default on court-ordered debt. Any persons eligible to have a driver’s license, including undocumented individuals eligible under AB 60, are entitled to participate in the program if threshold eligibility requirements are met. General eligibility requirements for the traffic amnesty program in Yolo County include: the initial due date for payment on the debt must have been on or before January 1, 2013; no payments have been made after September 30, 2015; no restitution is owed to a victim on any case within Yolo County; and no non-traffic misdemeanor or felony warrants may be outstanding within Yolo County. Qualified persons may expect outstanding fines and bail to be reduced by either 50% or 80% and to set up a reasonable payment plan for the remaining debt. For those that do not qualify for debt reduction, a payment plan for outstanding debt may still be developed, resulting in the immediate release of a driver’s license hold. “Every day I see Yolo County residents struggle to overcome barriers like lack of transportation and the often related barrier of unemployment,” said Yolo County Public Defender Tracie Olson. “It’s not that as drivers they pose a public safety risk, it’s just that they can’t afford to pay off their court ordered debt. I hope everyone who is eligible will take advantage of this opportunity.” The program costs $50, excluding the Department of Motor Vehicles fee of $55 to reinstate a driver’s license. Participation forms may be found on the Yolo County Superior Court website (www.yolo.courts.ca.gov/) and will be processed by the Court’s Traffic Division located at 1000 Main Street in Woodland.

The West Sacramento Historical Society: Looking Forward and Back Thomas Farley thomasfarley@yahoo.com The West Sacramento Historical Society is a forward-looking group with a constant focus on the past. Current and future projects keep Society’s members engaged in preserving our City’s history and in explaining how yesterday’s people and places make up what we are today. Let’s take an example. West Sacramento is the consolidation of several smaller towns. Can you name them? Historical Society President Don Schatzel wonders. He says, “We went to a high school group and asked them what were the names of the four West Sacramento communities before the City became the City? They didn’t know. For them, the City has been a city for a hundred years. One person knew Broderick. But they didn’t know Washington, Southport, or Bryte.” Still, that does not discourage Schatzel. He enjoys bringing the past to the present. “West Sacramento has had a long, vibrant history, a fun history once you get to know it,” Schatzel says. “One of our members just asked a waitress in Broderick, ‘Who was Broderick?’ She said, ‘I don’t know, I think he founded the City of West Sacramento.’” But the answer is
Lizzie, the old Bryte fire engine, being transported. (Photo courtesy of the WSHS.) much different than that. The Society, in always trying to educate people about our City’s heritage, has produced a small flyer on the man himself, David Colberth Broderick. The circular, available at the Society’s gallery inside the West Sacramento Community Center, reveals Broderick to be a United States Senator from California. Chiefly associated with San Francisco, the anti-slavery Broderick was shot dead in a duel in 1859. West Sacramento’s Washington District later changed its name to honor the deceased senator, as well as to comply with a Postal Authority request
– too many cities named Washington. The Society is engaged in many projects. One involves renovating an old Bryte fire truck, a 1937 Chevrolet wooden tanker known as Lizzie. Schatzel says that Sierra Hart will give them an estimate on what it will cost to get it operating. They are also looking to do more outreach at schools. Rotating the exhibits at the Community Center is another continuing project. Schat-
zel says member Thom Lewis handles these displays, the current one being on the River Cats, the next to be a history of the equestrian community in West Sacramento. Volunteers are sought by the Society. Schatzel says they always need people with website skills and those experienced in fundraising, but they can accommodate any measure of help. “Sometimes it’s just their availability to move things around

(mile) accomplishment. “Ernie’s parents always come to his races and this year was more special as they are dealing with health issues. Ernie felt this may be his father’s last attempt to showing up at Wasatch for his son. At the award ceremony they present ‘ The Spirit of Wasatch award’. This goes to a runner who has gone out of their way to do something out of the ordinary on the 100 mile event. “This was given to Ernie for his heroism of helping me. This was double-awesome for his dad to be a part of this and see his son get this award. Oh BTW Ernie is about 58 and his parents are in their 80s.” Karen’s background in running began before she even started lacing up. Coming from many years of cycling and accomplishing many 200mile bike rides, she has competed in 1,200-kilometer (745-mile) events, including the Gold Rush 1,200K out of Davis, Paris-Brest-Paris and Boston-Montreal-Boston. She then decided she should at least try running, so she ran her first marathon, the California International Marathon, in 2000 for the millennium, and her second was the CIM three years later which she qualified for the elite Boston Marathon. She dabbled with running off and on over the years until about 2007, and in 2008, she upped the miles, running her first 50 miler, the American River 50. She was so excited the next day, she signed up for the Tahoe Rim Trail 50 miler. At this event a friend of her talked her into her first 100-mile run, the Rio Del Lago in 2008. The longest distance Karen has run

was at Across the Years race and in 48 hours she ran 148 miles; she was the first lady in that event in 2011 in Arizona. She plans to go back this year and see how close she can get to 200 miles in two days. Across The Years is a fixed-time event featuring several race options, from as many as six days to one. The object is to travel as far as possible in the time allotted. Last year, she was training hard for the Tahoe Ironman and she was not able to start due to the fire. She really wanted to try and get a slot for the Kona World Championships. So last year, she registered for Tahoe and Boulder Ironman races in 2015. One of the biggest inspirations of Karen’s over the course of her running years has been her husband Nattu Natraj who is also a long distance runner. The two were married on June 22 just prior to their honeymoon – the Western States 100-miler (which starts in Squaw Valley and ends in Auburn.) “On the first Saturday of December (of 2014) the lottery for the Western States is held at the high school in

To Karen, running has become a passion as it keeps her healthy (except for the hurt ankle) and she has a deep passion for fitness and health. “I love feeling strong and healthy and I love helping or inspiriting others to do the same. My passion in life is fitness and inspiring others to do the same. I hope to be doing this forever in my life.”

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size
of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (714) 8489272 or visit this Internet Web site www. elitepostandpub.com, using the file number assigned to this case 15-37495. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 916-939-0772 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site www.nationwideposting. com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case 00000004765810.

Avoid the 8 Yolo County DUI taskforce
Free helmets given to Bridgeway Island Elementary students Photos courtesy of Bridgeway Bridgeway Island Elementary hosted a bike rodeo on Friday, Sept. 25 at the Bridgeway playground. Youth learned about bike safety and students received free helmets.
Drunk and drugged driving remains the number one killer on our roadways, with 1,197 alcohol involved deaths and over 23,000 injuries reported statewide in 2013. The “Avoid the 8” DUI Task Force will be combating this deadly problem through DUI enforcement efforts in Yolo County. The West Sacramento Police Department will be administering a recent $140,000.00 grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety for the entire county. The “Avoid the 8” DUI Task Force is named to send the message that if you don’t drink or use drugs and drive, you will avoid getting arrested by any of the 8 participating law enforcement agencies in the county. The grant activities will specifically target those who get behind the wheel after drinking too much or using drugs that impair driving. Offi-
cers from law enforcement agencies across the county will jointly staff DUI/Driver License Checkpoints and roving DUI saturation patrols. Additionally, funding will target the ‘worst of the worst’ repeat DUI offenders with Warrant/Probation Sweeps and Court Sting Enforcement Operations focusing on DUI offenders with suspend licenses who drive from court hearings after being ordered not to by a judge. “Overall, California’s roadways are among the safest in the nation,” said OTS Director Rhonda Craft. “But to meet future mobility, safety, and accessible transportation objectives, we have to reverse this recent trend in order to reach our common goal – zero deaths on our roadways. The Office of Traffic Safety and the Avoid DUI Task Force want to work with everyone to create a culture
of traffic safety across Yolo County and the state.” Motorists can expect to see special DUI campaigns during the winter and summer holiday periods as well as on Halloween, Super Bowl Sunday, St. Patrick’s Day, Cinco de Mayo and during local special events with identified DUI Problems. Funding for the grant comes from the California Office of Traffic Safety through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Agencies participating in the ‘Avoid the 8’ taskforce include: West Sacramento Police Department Woodland Police Department Winters Police Department Davis Police Department UC Davis Police Department Yolo Sheriff’s Department Yolo Probation Department California Highway Patrol – Yolo County.

Nature and You Lecture Series Features Great Speakers and Live Animals
Continued from page 1 perform each year at the local music festival and at the last performance set, their teacher becomes emotional about her deep love of her students and the music. Many students now are professional musicians, educators and lifetime music lovers. For the first two years at the high school, Felicia taught typing and psychology in addition to the music program. In her fifth year, she taught music full time and in the 12th year, a second teacher was added to the music program. The program has literally outgrown its facility and has expanded into the math building. There are now four music teachers. Unlike other richer districts, some of her students only start playing an instrument in ninth grade. Other districts may have students with private teachers and an earlier start. A major advantage of our local students is the deep commitment of their teachers. Felicia in person is a dynamo. Despite a recent surgery and tough recovery (the toughest thing for her is to be away from her students) she radiates positive energy. She has a radiant smile. Her earrings featured musical notes, of course. She has three sons; the two older play music. She tells her students, “my career is about you.” In 2014, Felicia received the Jazz Educator award from the Sacramento Traditional Jazz Society. Unlike many high schools, the music program is an important part of the local curriculum. Felicia says, “It is heart breaking that in some districts music is a low priority.” The students benefit in many ways from

They learn what life is about: emotion and passion. They learn teamwork and being a part of a larger whole. They also learn a positive way to express themselves or to rebel and start a garage band.” For many students, their peer band members become their closest friends. They also bond with their teacher. Community is stressed in the West Sacramento high school. The students regularly perform at Wicked West Pizza. As Felicia says, “I love this town. I am so happy to be here.” In addition to local performances, the bands play four music festivals
and the CSUS Winter program. Felicia is hoping to add Folsom and Woodcreek jazz competitions and they are auditioning for Disneyland in the spring. With all that she has accomplished in 19 years, she still has a vision for a greater program. Her dreams include an AP music theory class and two levels of orchestra. The program is supported by Boosters, music performances and fund raisers. Thanks to local jazz education programs, scholarship opportunities and mentor musicians, jazz is alive and well at River City High School. On Oct. 21, there will be a performance at River City High School at 7 p.m.

Yolo County Helps New Food Business Get Grant and Serve Local Farms With assistance from the Yolo County Department of Agriculture and a USDA grant, Yolo County is now home to Preserve Farm Kitchens, a small batch, private label co-pack facility that helps farms of all sizes take raw product and turn it into shelf-stable, value-added foods. Preserve Farm Kitchens is the brainchild of Merrilee Olson, a long-time food entrepreneur. She recognized farms could be more profitable if they had the means to sell the whole field and all grades of product. To do so, farms would need a home for the less-than-perfect products (not fit for the shelf as is) that could be made into other products, i.e. jams, jellies, salsas, hummus, shrubs, etc.
“For many years, Yolo County farmers have shared with us the need for such a facility,” said Marcia Gibbs, president of Yolo Ag & Food Alliance, Yolo County’s Food Policy Council. “It takes a creative entrepreneur and a public-private partnership to make it happen. We are delighted to have Preserve Farm Kitchens in our community”. Having outgrown their original 3,000 square foot production space in Marin County, Preserve Farm Kitchens looked to expand in Yolo County. Their new 10,000 square foot facility in Woodland will contain four different processing lines with the flexibility to do production runs as low as 25 cases up to a few 1,000 cases. Working with Yolo County, Preserve
Farm Kitchens has been able to access a USDA Local Food Promotion Program grant to purchase necessary equipment and marketing assistance. “We are pleased to have jointly received this USDA grant,” said Yolo County Agricultural Commissioner John Young. “It is key to helping grow the regional business system that supports the success of our farmers.” Preserve Farm Kitchens is sited in the heart of the growing Woodland Food & Ag Business Cluster (www. WoodlandFoodAgCluster. com), joining a number of other local food processing businesses. What makes it unique is its commitment to farms of all sizes and ability to take on just about any crop.

Matías Bombal’s Hollywood “99 Homes” The MPAA has rated this R Broad Green Pictures brings us “99 Homes”, the latest offering from director Ramin Bahrani. A very real horror story of big banks and a Florida middleman realtor that seizes homes from defaulting homeowners to evict them. The movie begins with no apology by showing an unexpected and unpleasant moment, setting the tone for the unease that will prevail for the movie’s entire running time. The scene is an eviction of a home. The next home in the path of bank repossession offers a tense moment for the Nash family: Dennis, a hardworking construction worker, played by Andrew Garfield, is trying his best to catch up with mounting debt. He lives with his mother, Lynn (Laura Dern) and his son, Connor (Noah Lomax). His wife has left him. There is a knock on the door of the Nash home. Dennis answers to find the sheriff serving the eviction along with a realtor with the bad news that they must leave at once. Michael Shannon, playing Rick Carver, is literally the realtor from hell. This psychological assault will trigger Dennis to action beyond his normal experience. As horrible as this may seem, things go from bad to worse. The humiliation of clearing out their house in two to three minutes of valuables, then standing by as workmen rapidly empty the house forcefully, is an impressive and brutal process. Actor Michel Shannon is a relentless, remarkable talent and here he certainly may be considered “the man you love to hate,” a term
first used for silent screen actor and director Erich von Stroheim. Shannon is intense and fantastic in playing complex characters like this one or his role in TV’s “Boardwalk Empire”. Dennis is compelled to action to save his family. First, his mom and son are placed in a low-rent motel. Then, he finds out where the eviction team meets, intending to get back some of his tools so he may work. Whilst arguing to get back his tools, a strange turn of events takes place; he’s offered money by Carver to work on his next eviction. Cash money. Desperation leads Dennis to start with odd jobs for the realtor that evicted him and his family. The money is good and under the table, and begins to increase with more and more work as Dennis hopes to eventually make enough to buy his own home back. In this “If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em” attitude, Dennis begins to change and becomes emotionally lost, never telling his mother or son what he is doing that brings them much needed revenue not only to survive, but eventually leave their stranded motel life. Andrew Garfield is like you’ve never seen him before in this picture and his scenes with Shannon are intense and well performed. The plot offers Faustian undercurrents, the course for the two to damnation seems set. Director Ramin Bahrani, who I had a chance to chat with after the press screening in San Francisco, shared with me his horror at discovering the housing eviction situation in Florida during the period the picture depicts, where banks have two departments, each giving the lender different advice. One department says to default on the loan, the

other to keep paying, all calculated to confuse the home owner so that the bank may evict the owner for non-payment. I asked Bahrani why he chose to make this a dramatic feature and not a documentary with all the true facts he uncovered in preparing this idea for the screen. He felt it would artistically best be expressed as a dramatic narrative. Bahrani additionally shared that he chose the wide-screen anamorphic aspect ratio to give a sense of the vast emptiness of these re-possessed houses, barren of life, for Shannon and Garfield to unravel their performances in real spaces. Most of the homes seen in the picture were actual repossessed empty houses in Florida. This movie is clearly not a subject for everyone, a true horror story of big banking, opportunists and graft. There are great moments from both Shannon and Garfield that make this a must see for fans of the process of acting. He Named Me Malala The MPAA has rated this PG-13 Malala Yousafzai and her father stand for the right to educate all -Fox Searchlight Pictures Fox Searchlight Pictures offers the documentary “He Named Me Malala”, which relates the compelling real life story of a very brave 18-year-old Pakistani girl, Malala Yousafzai, who was shot in the head by the Taliban in October, 2012. The young lady’s outspoken stance as an activist for the right for education, especially that of females, was against the ancient customs and beliefs of that male dominated culture. The outpouring of world-wide public support for her has made her perhaps the most famous teenage girl on the globe. In 2014, she would become the youngest person to ever receive the Nobel
Police Log Peace Prize which she and co-recipient Kailash Satyarthi shared. Malala was awarded for her struggle against the oppression of children and the right of all children. Her road to that grand award is one of the most compelling real life stories of human courage in recent history. This documentary seems to ride the wake of her story to add luster with three different approaches to relate the story. Part of the movie is animated quite beautifully, then there are recreations of historical events, some in a dreamy diffused focus, to hide the fact that they are recreations. Then there are the actualities of real news clips from the period, shown in the 4X3 television aspect ratio, and footage following the young lady around on her various present day humanitarian stops, lectures, and book signings. You may surely be impressed by her singular nature and deep humanity for one so young. Her father argues, when asked who shot her, “Not a person... an ideology.” She herself relates, “I have been given one life and that life is a sacred life.” The documentary goes to great pains to remind you that she is also just an 18 year-old girl, as when in her room we see a book shelf that includes her favorite books, including her own book. In her own book, she has autographed it to herself with an inscription that shows a sense of humor. The movie seems not to know what it wants to be. Malala’s story could not be improved by this movie, it is better than this movie could ever be. Director David Guggenheim seemed to want to add the various elements, such as recurring animated sequences to give it a more theatrical feel, since it would not be seen on televisions, but in a theatrical setting. The story is powerful enough not to be further enhanced by these adornments. Thomas Newman’s original score is subtle and beautiful, perhaps one of the finest elements of the movie’s theatrical aspects. As you watch this, you cannot be but impressed by Malala’s courage. Don’t confuse Malala with this movie about her, they are two different things, and one is clearly trying to bask in the other’s light.
