This is now streaming with Jordan. Is there anybody that
hangel and pick these kids up? Nine six three to base?
I can gim I just watched what I thought was
a thrilling movie called The Lost Bus, based on a
true story about a down on his luck school bus
driver Kevin McKay dealing with the recent death of his father,

(00:21):
a son who hates him, money, troubles, and more. Based
on the book Paradise one town struggled to survive an
American wildfire. It involves an ordinary bus driver and an
elementary school teacher risking everything to save the lives of
twenty two school children amidst one of the worst and
most dangerous fires in California history. Matthew McConaughey turns in
a fine performance, and director Paul Greengrass, known for other

(00:42):
quote unquote disaster movies like United ninety three and Captain Phillips,
presents a visual spectacle in which the viewer will feel
engulfed by the raging fires. Credibly suspenseful, and gut wrenchingly emotional.
