To celebrate our youngest daughter’s birthday this past week, the family joined her at the movie theater to watch the recently released movie, “A Wrinkle in Time.” From visionary director Ava DuVernay, Disney based this epic production on Madeleine L’Engle’s acclaimed classic. The story takes the audience across a dimension of time and space, in a feast of flawless visual effects that left me dazzled, from beginning to end.
