      BRIDGTON - Every holiday season, we are reminded again of how Dickens’ "A Christmas Carol" has the power to transcend time and place.

Mixing the sounds of folk, rock, jazz, and reggae, with lyrics full of unbridled optimism, the band has crafted a sound that is distinctly Barefoot Truth.

    • Movie Review: Unstoppable -- Twentieth Century Fox

      Dec 02, 2010 12:00 am

      Veteran director Tony Scott (brother of Ridley) is best known for directing some of the most action-packed movies in the past 25 years. Some of his most notable ones include Top Gun, Crimson Tide, and Man on Fire. His new film, Unstoppable, is Scott’s return to his roots as a class-A action director and the result doesn’t disappoint. Most action movies like this work best when released in the summer season, so it’s unusual to see this released during the Thanksgiving season.
