I am one that seeks out those who could benefit from the extra promotion‚ and although it can be difficult to sometimes squeeze it into my schedule‚ I am happy to help when I can. And that is exactly how I feel with The Hunt. This is an independent film‚ and it just so happens that Kyle Smithers‚ director of this film‚ was kind enough to give me the chance to review it. And the

In this scene Michael is not having a great first game and is being bullied by his opposing
