Movie Review: Mask

A wonderful movie about a teenager who has learned to to be happy in spite living with a disorder that disfigured his face and eventually kills him.

I really enjoy the movie because it gives an subtle look at family life of a motorcycle club.  While it's not the point of the movie, you really get to see the brother hood and family love that exists inside a club and the families that are affiliated with the club.

In this case, Gar, played by Sam Elliott (one of my favorite actors) re-enters the life of Rocky Dennis played by Eric Stoltz because Gar is dating Rockys mother, Rusty, played by Cher.  Gar is a member of the fictitious motorcycle club called The Turks.

The scenes of the Turks taking care of each other, taking care of Rocky's family, socializing together and riding together are what make this one of my favorite movies.
